Win 1 of 3 pairs of Just Sheepskin slippers – worth up to £85!

Oh slippers how I love you. It’s an odd thing – as a child I hated slippers with a deep and wide loathing. If my feet were chilly, I resorted happily to socks – the thicker and fluffier the better. but slippers? UGH. No. All the way through my teens and twenties I stuck to my guns – slippers were bad bad ugly things. But then I got given a pair for Christmas, and I politely had to wear them. What a revelation!...

Cute fashion accessories I’m craving this summer

The sun’s out – and with it came the sundresses and strappy sandals. I’ve ambitiously looked at my dresses over the last few weeks, but even if I’ve slipped one on I’ve ended up reverting to rolled-up jeans by lunch time. Just now warm enough. But today – hooray – the sun is out, and set to stay. And of course, as soon as the flappy skirts make an appearance, you start needing new pretty...

Wedding Flip Flops, Madam? Why Yes. Yes Please.

I know, the wedding day is the day you get to pull out our ridiculously lovely, impossibly high heeled and foolishly impractical little bits of beauty for your feet. You slip your toes into them and feel instantly gorgeous, right? Of course. But fast forward a few hours, through the ceremony and the canapés and the standing and chatting and you start to feel just a  little less so. You get tired of trying to stop your heels sinking...

Fabulous Duvet Slippers (yes really) under £5!

I know, I know. They’re duvet slippers and they’re ugly. They are. BUT. They’re duvets! For your FEET! Now I know for a fact that any of you fellow cold-feet-sufferers have just done a double take and oooh-ed excitedly. Oh yes. Because we cold-feet-sufferers know full well that in the quest for warmth, looks will just slide down the priority scale a little. I have a pair of these babies, and I can firmly assure you that they are...

Gorgeous Holiday Dresses – sale at JD WIlliams!

Just back from a completely fabulous short city break in Bordeaux, I was reminded again about the winder of The Dress. Summer Holiday Dresses in particular. I rather fell out of love with dresses in my teens – skirts were okay at a need-to-dress-up push, but dresses? No way. The trouble is I’m an odd shape – 6′ tall, but with ‘normal’ legs and a lo-o-oong back, which means a dress never ever sits...
