Jean-ius

These are a fine off duty pair of jeans, medium wash, relaxed straight leg, flattering pocket detail and available in in-between sizes. An investment buy.

Wild and Funky

Had a request to find wild and funky shoes, and one brand came to mind, Irregular Choice. If you are really committed and daring with your style check these guys out.
Blue shoe-boot, 69.50
Burgandy Wedge, 65.00



Uh oh...Summer is nearly over!

That's our five minutes over and done with. Lets start looking towards our A/W 09 wardrobes, because if the forecast is right its going to be wet and brutal. The best trick for dressing appropriately in weather such as this is layering. The rule of thumb for winter layering is that the outside layers should be the thickest. It solves that outside cold, inside hot conundrum when you're out and about.

This look is practical, quirky and a little bit New York. Bonus points for being able to wear that smoking dress for after work tipples. (A supper flattering colour for most skin tones too). Team with shoe boots or knee to thigh length velvet boots in a clashing jewel tone- Magenta, Mulberry....Mustard?! Personalise this look with your own shoe and accessory choices.

Item of the Week


Yes it is very, very early but Mango has begun rolling out their Autumn stock and I am very impressed. A few of their major looks are high glamour, fierce rock chick and folklore. What I am most pleased about are their dresses which are beautiful, many of them are silk and printed and easy to wear. This beauty here is gorgeous on and I challenge any woman to say that this wouldn't look nice on them. It's a win-win situation.
