Christmas Shopping and How to Plan Ahead...
We know what you are thinking - Christmas? CHRISTMAS? It's not even November yet!! We know, we know, but hear us out... as of today there are only 66 days until the dreaded C word and when you think of it like that, there really isn't as much time as you think. Of course its not really dreaded, the actual holiday is wonderful - relaxation, food, drinks, presents, merriment - no its not the day itself that is dreaded, its all the planning that goes in beforehand, and precisely the shopping for gifts. If you are already thinking about the...
Autumn Essentials...
Autumn has well and truly hit this week; the mornings have got darker, the leaves have started to fall and the temperature has dropped to a level we forgot it could go to. So with the new season here, what are the autumn Essentials every girl needs? Here are out top five items that we think will see you through the autumn season... 1. A good transitional coat - Especially if you live in London, during autumn winter, you find yourself in a constant yo-yo of hot to cold as you go from the tube to the outdoors to the...
Trend: Thinking Pink
The pink coat has and still is the outerwear piece of the Autumn Winter season. As the weather turns and we all start thinking about our Winter wardrobes the colour pink seems high on the agenda.

Three Ways to Wear... A Silk Scarf
This time of year can often be a trial when it comes to getting dressed in the morning. We've made peace with that fact that Summer is at an end and have stored our open toed sandals and floppy hats away for another year. Now we are ready to don those Winter coats and start layering like all of the magazines keep telling us. But the weather isn't quite with us yet. Autumn in Britain basically means anything goes - sun, rain, even snow - who knows what to expect on an average day. You may be too hot in...
Guest Post: A Transitional Wardrobe by Sherin Malick
This week we have a fab guest post from fashion blogger Sherin Malick, who writes The Hi Fashion Site. Here she discusses how to successfully swap your Summer clothes for Winter and have that elusive transitional wardrobe. While standing in the shade, hiding from the rain last weekend at Somerset House, it was clear to see that our glorious summer was well behind us, with the winter looming nearer. I, for one, am nowhere near ready to give up my pretty dresses and cute sandals, and will be trying to wear them for as long as I can. There are...
AW13 - Our Top Trends!
September is here and while the sun may still be shining (what an amazing Summer we have had), thoughts are now turning to a new season in fashion and the AW13 products are already beginning to drop in stores. It’s hard to think about Winter Coats and Autumn hues when even wearing jeans in London right now induces clamminess but before we know it the tide will turn and we will be wishing we had compiled our AW wishlist sooner. So with that in mind and as next seasons colour palettes and style movements begin to be revealed, we thought...
