Month: March 2018

… a word from the Editor & Blogger

by Amanda // March 30, 2018 // Comments off
Happy Easter Everyone. Whether you’re celebrating Easter, Passover or just a long bank holiday weekend, it’s still the most calorific time of the year. My parents came to visit a couple of weeks ago, armed with bags full of chocolate... Continue reading →

Skinny Leathers – How Old Is Too Old?

by Amanda // March 30, 2018 // Comments off
Let’s be honest, you’re pushing your luck in a pair of leather skinnies post 40. But a trend is trend. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley never misses a trend. Every time the 30-year-old model is spotted out and about she’s dressed head to... Continue reading →

The Designer Trainers Copy Takeover

by Amanda // March 30, 2018 // Comments off
I love Zara’s £29.99 pre-folded trainers – even though they look more than suspiciously like the £450 Gucci pair. Perhaps designed specifically for ‘taking the bins out’, they feature a ‘soft heel’ you can fold down, enabling their spontaneous use... Continue reading →

A History Of The Playboy Bunny

by Amanda // March 30, 2018 // Comments off
So, we’re not talking about the actual ‘Easter Bunny’, but a ‘Bunny’ of sorts, yes the Playboy Bunny. In recent years, Kate Moss reigned as the 40th Anniversary Bunny, which gives this role a somewhat prestigious and bona fide place... Continue reading →

… a word from the Editor & Blogger

by Amanda // March 22, 2018 // Comments off
Hurrah! It’s Spring 2018, following this week’s Spring Equinox, which apparently signals the “official” commencement of the season. Following last week’s second visit from the dubiously named Beast From East, we were stranded in Mallorca for 5 hours, unable to... Continue reading →

The Chanel Bucket Hat – Definitely Maybe

by Amanda // March 22, 2018 // Comments off
Remember Liam Gallagher ‘avin it large’ in his plastic-bucket hat during Oasis’s 90s heyday?   Little did Liam know that decades later, fashion Gods Chanel would take inspiration and re-produce their own version, to create the ultimate fashion accessory of... Continue reading →

The Designer Plastic Bag

by Amanda // March 22, 2018 // Comments off
Now, I get the whole ‘plastic trail’ thing and understand that reusing one’s ‘bags for life’ is valuable in curtailing that trail – as long as you remember to take them out shopping with you. But what about a fancy... Continue reading →

Ibiza & Mallorca Sunglasses

by Amanda // March 22, 2018 // Comments off
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, I’m not referring to Christmas. It’s Spring/Summer 2018, which means not long until Ibiza kicks off and it’ll soon be time to absorb those (thus far, barely there) sunrays. Counting down... Continue reading →

… a word from the Editor & Blogger

by Amanda // March 15, 2018 // Comments off
Welcome to this weeks instalment and thank you Mira Manley – my guest editor – for finding all this weeks stories. I have felt imprisoned in my house this week due to a cold, so her help was greatly appreciated.... Continue reading →

The New Engagement Jewellery

by Amanda // March 15, 2018 // Comments off
Finger piercing: the engagement ring trend, which makes my stomach turn. We all wish somebody loved us enough to present a huge diamond, but know we’ll either lose it or leave it somewhere by accident? Now there’s a new trend... Continue reading →
