FASHIONISTA

I was very lucky today, I had the chance to walk through Canary Wharf shopping mall. I have to say I believe that some of the high street companies provide different goods for different stores. There is some terrific clothes in Top Shop, including a really nice sheer nylon!!! I think, dress in various shades, there are some nice jackets.

But the best shop was Hobbs, - a fantastic dress in white and a suit in white (same fabric as the dress) to die for. Buy both and you would have the perfect capsual wardrobe, mix it with some of the great shirts, bags and shoes that are out there. Sharpen the business look, freshen up

Monsoon is worth a visit but the prices are way too much at this location Accessorise is part of the same outlet, great for linking things together.

I have decided to try a fashion faux pas, yes thats right I am going to be an old bird wearing young girls styles. I like the shorts that are out there, worn with opaque tights change the colours for the day and night, boots or shoes (same colour) do the boho thing on the top half or 'T' shirts (my fav are the vest) a great summer look. I shall put the look together cheaply, with Cotton medium length cargo shorts.

I am preparing for the Race for Life by walking a mile a day...I hope to loose my belly so that those shorts I am going to buy might look half reasonable. I got some cool kit for the walk, very pink.


I still love the WRAP catalogue but the cost, well I just can't afford to buy all the things I want no make that anything even one item. Do check out the simple lines. www.wraponline.co.uk very stylish and classical give yourself some style ideas. Baggy linen trousers, sweet linen jackets, lovely long skirts in a range of delicious colours. All very New England... Plus the straw hat look that is out there, either trilby style or stetson. I am a stetson person myself.


The pencil skirt is back in fashion, go for it. I love it and it is very sexy.
Style magazine (the Sunday Times) and You magazine (the Sunday Times) fly the flag weekly for good fashion, food and life style items I recommend you read if you get the opportunity.

Three cheers for Leona Lewis, she is very good and she has hit the US market running, top single and album from the off. She is also very pretty I just hope she doesnt get spoilt. I also like Duffy as well, I enjoy her sound. More three cheers, Nigel Kennedy is back and playing excellent.

Oh and while I am at it....Viva Cuba.

I am with Rhys Jones family at this time supporting them and hoping that justice is done.
