 This blog post contains affiliate links. All discounts were applicable at time of writing blog post. So we had the coloured coats and now.. I have a hankering for a coloured trainer.  Well, two obvs.  One on each foot and the same colour for sure.  I'm thinking green... or red, or ORANGE! OOH yes orange. How about yellow maybe?  You know when you get something in your head and it suddenly seems like the best idea you've ever had.  Well, this is it.  A coloured pair of trainers.  Seeing right now as this is pretty much what we're mostly wearing, it doesn ..read more

This blog post contains affiliate links A New Coat.  So clearly we've all taken a good look at our wardrobes during lockdown and really taken stock of what works during lockdown and what we've been wearing less of.  Certainly, I have been wearing a LOT fewer dresses and skirts during the Winter months - fear not, they will have their day as soon as the weather improves - but for not, it's very much about the comfort and the trousers.  However, whilst we want to feel comfortable and casual we don't want to look like an extra from Shameless.  And the easiest that I've foun ..read more

 This blog post contains affiliate links. We've got to the end of January.  And I haven't done a blog post...why is that? Partly because I've been working on another project, home schooling and generally just trying to keep my head above water with work, kids, dogs and everyone being at home together. And because this year - more so perhaps than any other year - I"m not sure there's been as large an appetite as usual for embracing all things new season.  Even in the sales - normally I would be perusing them with a vengeance but this year, the feelings of anticipation at what's t ..read more

 This blog post contains affiliate links Right.  I'm going to mention the big C. CHRISTMAS.  What are we all going to be wearing. Lots of glitzy dresses and heels?  Frankly no.  Well, you might be, but I'm not.  But does that mean I want to be wearing my trackpants and a tee shirt for the festive season. HELL NO.  I will be doing my darndest to find wearable gorgeous things that are little bit special but that are still casual and can be worn with.. well trackpants.  Or bottoms that can be worn with a huge cosy knit.   We're going to reinvent t ..read more

This blog post contains affiliate links ...seeing as it's here to stay for the time being at least.  The mood of the nation is heading into (being forced into?!) relaxed mode.  And what better way to celebrate not being able to go out with the purchase of something we will be able to wear day in and day out - the sweatshirt.   So this isn't really a reinvention as such, more of a rediscovery and an easy segue from pure slobbism into something we can wear every day.  With a slight rejig of an outfit (ie maybe don't wear with tracksuit trousers that you wore when you wer ..read more

This blog post contains affiliate/ad links ..the one that is making all the headlines this season is the check version.  These are EVERYWHERE.  You can't move without hitting a coat of the checked variety and there's pretty much one for everyone.  These aren't, however, new to me (or many others I would think).  You will either love them or hate them BUT - I do think there is a version that you might like out there.  As when it comes to checks, the varieties are endless.  Bright checks, neutral checks, big checks, small checks, chunky coats, faux fur coats, trench ..read more

How hard can it be to find...

 This blog post contains affiliate links. ... to find a raincoat that doesn't look like I bought it from Mountain Warehouse and am about to trek up Snowdonia?   Very is the answer.  From a scant glance at lots of sites, it seems that you're not allowed to go out in inclement weather and look stylish.   To be fair, I guess that does guess depend on what you're actually looking for...some people do just want something that is innately practical.  And for that, it can pretty much be purely functional.  When it comes to that though, I do like it have a level ..read more

It's the coat that you shouldn't love...

 This blog post contains affiliate links ...but you can't help yourself.  Yes it's the leopard print coat of dreams.  So I should start by saying, the chance of your husband or boyfriend liking this, is not high.  They will no doubt mutter something along the lines of Bet Lynch or Pat Butcher.  PAH.  What do they know?  NOTHING is the answer. The leopard coat has become a timeless classic.  In whichever guise you choose to wear it.  It can be short, long, chunky or a lightweight number.   They can work all year round, depending on the styl ..read more

The reinvention of the humble cardie

This blog post contains affiliate/ad links. Right. I should start by saying this is one of those things that I want to love and that I love on other people but on me - I just can't really make them work.   I so so want to but it's one item of clothing (I'm sure there are others!) that I just don't feel comfortable in.  However that doesn't stop me trying. Hell no.  I'm going to give it my best shot to find ones that work for everyone.  And the key attribute of the cardie this season is that it needs to be chunky.  That I don't have a problem with.  What I do ..read more

 This blog post contains affiliate links It's surely the perfect time to start thinking about knits for chillier days.  And surely we all need a bit of cheering up (at any time to be fair) so I reckon a good idea is to keep it jolly.   I'm thinking of a jolly knit... which can clearly come in many formats but the one jumper that I'm drawn to when scrolling through all the New In emails, is a striped version.  I'm thinking bright colours, ones that make you smile AND ones that will breathe new life into your Summer skirts and ideal for layering over your Summer dresses ..read more
