Your style journey needs to have some style goals to help focus and to help you manage your stylish wardrobe. To be 100% clear this is NOT about New Year resolutions - however Lockdown 3 (if you are living in the UK, like me) presents the opportunity for time to think about what changes you wish to make for…
I will admit that I am absolutely awful when it comes to investing in fast fashion. I feel like my style is still changing and evolving (although I’m much more sure of myself now than I was a couple of years ago) so I often find myself buying things I might like at the time but probably wouldn’t wear six…
SIX WAYS TO ORGANISE YOUR WARDROBE EACH SEASON - I'm never keen on just organising your wardrobe twice a year - I feel you should be 'on it' more often than you think - this way you can be more in control. It also helps with understanding how good or poor your sustainable shopping habits currently are; along with…
It is that time of year when we put away our shorts and dig out the jeans. Finding the right shape can be difficult, especially when you’re 5’2” and size 16, with an ‘upside-down’ bum (my kind daughter’s words!!). It’s also a minefield out there, with endless style, fits, rises, and colours! But buying jeans doesn’t have to be a…
This week I have had the delight of not only chatting to House 21’s award-nominated blogger Lizzi Richardson for the most recent podcast episode, but I have also received her new online mag, Lizzi’s Autumn Style Notes.

Autumn styling brings its challenges; one minute it's warm and then it can be quite cold. A shacket can offer you the freedom to look like you have outerwear on, but you can also, without any discomfort wear it indoors - unlike a jacket, which can be quite stiff and restricting on the arms. We've seen a lot of shackets…
This year has made everyone take a step back and reevaluate, but even more so the fashion industry. As we had to stay inside, cancel plans and avoid people, the lure of constantly buying new clothes quickly became unnecessary. All of a sudden the need to impress on social media was replaced with important topics of conversation that finally…
Autumn is here, winter is not too far away, and fashion needs to move accordingly with the seasons. Mid-season coats and winter coats are out of storage and now it is time to match all the accessories. What shoes should one wear in this gorgeous season? Boots? Knee-high boots? Thigh-high boots?

Anyone else re-watched Emily in Paris just for the outfits? Whilst most of the costumes designed by the legendary Patricia Field, may look out of place when you're strolling down the high street, rather than the Champs-Elysees, it might be easier than you think to pay homage to the latest Netflix sweetheart. As many of us are more used to…
Sustainable living isn't just minimising the amount of single-use products we buy, it is considering the process of making every product we buy. Clothing is a really important thing to get right, for many reasons! For example; is the product good quality, comfortable, breathable fabric, fashionable (if that's your thing). Do many of us consider beyond the point of wearing…
