Fashion on the streets on London


I am out there all the time and I am always fascinated with what people choose to wear, how they put outfits together and people's own personal sense of style, I am going to be out with my camera over the next few months and will post my finding here. I am going to be looking for classic style to modern individualism.

Catwalk Shopping with High Street Fashion



I get asked a lot "how do I recreate that catwalk look?" for both men and women it's easier than you think. Most high street fashion groups are very quick to get those catwalk looks out there for the benefit of you and any one who wants to look stylish for less. My tip is when you see something you like on the catwalk, keep you eye open on the high street and you might just grab a look straight off the runway.

Fashion for pets is it as important to them

Poppy lost her collar, I looked everywhere yesterday morning, we take it off at night so she can sleep comfortably and then yesterday morning it was gone. I looked everywhere and it got me to thinking, is her collar as important as I feel it is. OK its a fashion accessory to me and I think to her as well, its brown and pink and looks just lovely in her blond curls, so we had to get out her old tatty water stained (I can't bare to even call it a collar) and do you know what I think she felt different, she was less playful in the park and didn't run in circles around other dogs like she likes to do, showing off!

So today was another collar dampening day, just like the weather and then we get home, I start working on a presentation for tomorrow as I am giving a talk on fashion as a gift experience and then out the corner of my eye I see it in exactly the same place I had looked previously, typical.

We were so excited to have it back and it is now back round Poppy's neck where it belongs and she looks lovely and I feel happier so there must be something in pet fashion, it really is extremely important and that's what I will tell my husband when he catches me buying another new lead for her!

Fashion and Shopping is all about balance


How do I balance my body? My bottom is to big? well the best tip in the world is balance, want to wear skinny jeans but you bottom is on the larger side then balance out with big chunky boots and big knit, short jumper. It creates the shape you are looking for, some people create these lines easily some need some help but everybody can get there.
