As the weather begins to warm up, a new fashion mood is blossoming at H&M.
This spring H&M has a women’s collection of floral and feminine fashion in sustainable materials, called The Garden Collection by H&M.

Pieces from the collection are in stores now and the entire collection will be available by the 25th March.

I love the floral sheer blouse, teamed with these fab cream shorts. It just makes me want to dress for summer, but I’m not going to be some crazy person dressed in flip flops just yet! What is it with Brits and the summer weather!? I saw someone wearing flip flops in the rain yesterday?



Anyway, I digress. My fave piece from the collection is this elegant red dress – which screams glamour and sophistication. Guess it won’t sit so well on me then!

I've decided to sell on ebay - its been a long time coming. This is mainly due to the fact that my wardrobe is lying sprawled across the bedroom floor.


My favourite item - this floral 50s number. Sad to let it go.. but out with the old and in with the new I say!

Check out the rest of my goodies at -

So its 2010 and women continue to be the talking point of the headlines, whether it be Cheryl Cole rise and Ashley Cole’s fall – or Michelle Obama’s amazing support of Barack Obama’s rise to presidencency.

Now Red magazine has revealed the 20 most influential women who will be setting to shape our futures. Rising stars from industries across theatre, politics, media, business, the environment, food, technology, fashion, the voluntary sector and social enterprise have been selected.

These include, Chloe Smith , the youngest MP in the House of Commons and the Tories’ secret weapon’, Gemma Tuley, Susie Bubble from Stylebubble.com, and actress Sheridan Smith (28), the star of West End. Their achievements to date have been remarkable, with one woman awarded an MBE and all of them paving the way for other young aspiring female professionals.

According to Sam Baker, “These women are an inspiration to us all,” with leading figures across the industry speaking out to agree with this accolade.






However my favourite choice is the wonderful Louise Goldin, described as ‘Fashion Power House’. Her edgy and yet girly designs have brought her to the forefront of British designers, really outshining the others and my most favourite thing – that she has brought out a range of shoes for Topshop. (shoes pictured £110 topshop.com) Affordable chic!

What’s not to love!

Stylish Mums!

Just in time for Mother’s Day, a little round up of the most fashionable mother’s out there.

Elle Macpherson tends to rock a look just dropping off her kids to school – effortless chic – so cool its painful to watch.
Gwen Stefani is another mother who refuses to let herself go – always with the trade mark red lippy and blonde quiff. And now she has Kingston looking enviably cool – who would have thought I would aspire to look like a 3 year old (well maybe not with those sunglasses, but still!)
But who would have thought it – Tish Cyrus, mother to the annoyingly successful’s Miley Cyrus, knows how to pull out all the stops. She looks truly stunning in this elegant gown.
All I can say is I hope I don’t leave style behind when I pop a sprog or two!

Happy Mother’s Day!!

I DON'T GET IT!


eco friendly shoes...


What is next?! We have eco friendly bags (which are basically a sack in skanky material that you wear to feel a little bit better about yourself)
Then theres recylcing which couldn't be hammered more into you if they could try...

Now shoes?!

I'm confused too - but apparently Beyond Skin (a vegan shoe brand - yes they exist!) have developed these cute pumps, from BOTTLE TOPS!?

Available from asos.com in mid march 2010! (beyondskin.co.uk)


This is when i like eco fashion - when you can wear the stuff and you don't smell like a farmyard!
