By the time Easter comes around I'm desperate for a holiday. This time we're going to Seville, Spain and once again my hubby has insisted we go with hand luggage only (eye-roll). I therefore need to be particularly savvy in the packing department and looking at the weather forecasts, this is going to be a … Continue reading Packing for Seville 🇪🇸
I've got to that age and wardrobe capacity where the cyclical nature of fashion means each season I can dip into the back of the closet and pull out some key pieces that can be revived once again. As I'm attempting to buy less this year (which, by the way, I'm finding ridiculously hard) I'm … Continue reading Wardrobe Revivals
Not long now until we're off on a family holiday to Mallorca.I love this Balearic Island. This time we'll be staying in a finca at the foot of the Tramuntana Mountains, so quite different to our last stays in bustling, stylish Palma. I think I've finally learnt the art of packing (taking hand luggage only) … Continue reading Packing for Mallorca
Fashion has always been cyclical and this year is no exception. Although for some reason to me, it definitely feels like it's less forward-thinking this year. Having lived through the obsession with the 90's Supermodels (Linda being my fave), I'm not sure I can face that particular look again. There is also the Princess Di look … Continue reading What Goes Around, Comes Around
I thought I'd share what's on my wishlist for this Autumn/Winter.Writing these posts has made me realise what an obsession with footwear and accessories I have! There is always something to drool over. (I'll do a separate post on knitwear as there are so many to choose from at this time of year.) Click on … Continue reading Autumn/Winter Wishlist
I use the term 'girls' very loosely here but am soon returning to the South of France with a partner-in-crime. It will be quite different to my last visit to Nice as I'm hoping to get to wear some heels and there's a luxury hotel waiting for me, rather than a self-catering Airbnb. It's going to be … Continue reading Packing for a Girls Trip
I don't think I'll ever get over my obsession with bright colours. It has now hit new heights with the profusion of rainbow-hued clothes currently gracing our screens and shop windows. To celebrate, here is my edit of favourite pieces (click on pic for link): Under £150 (A few of the items in this post are … Continue reading {Not} Over The Rainbow
Summer is definitely the worst season for my shopaholic tendencies, purely because I get tempted by all the bright colours and this Summer has been no exception.My most recent buy has been this pair of rainbow trainers by Gucci: I still can't get over how fabulous they are! As with most Gucci shoes they are … Continue reading My Summer Buys
After a very wet week in the UK I'm taking a lot of pleasure in packing for Nice. It's been a while since I went to the French Riviera but because my hubby and I have been before it's mostly going to be a flop and drop holiday. We're really looking forward to spending some time … Continue reading Packing for the Côte d’Azur
Oh dear, I seem to be suffering from the usual packing dilemma - I want to fit half my wardrobe into a teensy-weensy piece of hand luggage. It doesn't help that I appear to have lost all willpower at the last minute and have been seeing more of my DHL man (Hi Dave!) than my own husband. … Continue reading Packing for Rome
