@annagmurphy and I had a great time talking all about necks for this article. Getting that neckline right is one of the easiest ways to look good. I’m long necked and so is my eldest son ( much to the amusement of his mates - who call him llama). The rest of the family are shorties. If you’re a long necked boy/man then hoodies look brilliant as do proper shirts and roll necks. Low cut tees are a no. Feel free to send any neck related questions my way. If you don’t know which you are please try and work it out today! Or book in for one of my head to toe body maps. A x
Happy Monday! I had a lovely night away in Hove with one of my oldest friends @absterho . I reckon we could break the record for non-stop talking over a 24 hour period. We used to call each other EVERY night after school - much to the horror and extreme irritation of our parents. I remember being shown the enormous phone bill and my mum had highlighted all our ‘unnecessary’ calls. Mum ‘Why do you need to speak to Abi when you’ve seen her all day at school??’ Me ‘ Because there’s always more to talk about… ( insert eye roll) obviously !!..’ X
Playing with pleats. I’ve ordered a few pleated skirts to try. I love them. Especially when they are pink AND taffeta?! What a joyous combination. I’m dreaming of spring days and garden parties ( who am I kidding?) but for now a feather cardi, tights and boots will have to suffice. The trick with pleats is where they start on the tummy and hips. More to come on this x
Yesterday we said goodbye to my wonderful Uncle William. A true original. A real character, who would talk to anyone and was always interested in what they said. Super smart with a wicked sense of humour. I shall miss our chats ( which I regret there weren’t enough of) that mischievous twinkle in his eye, the impish grin, his enthusiastic dancing and his innate generosity. Funerals always make me think about how I would like to be remembered. If I only had half of the tributes that poured in from friends and family I would consider my life a success. Rest in peace dearest William x
Grey and cream for work - putting looks together for a photo shoot with one of my regulars. I’m finding January a slog, as I always do, but after morning of outfit making I felt so much brighter! I’m so grateful to have found a career I really love. Hope everyone is doing ok? X
Happy New Year everyone! I do hope your Christmas break and new year went well. I had a very relaxing one and am now back to work and raring to go. Just a few musings on these sale boots I’m considering. Always remember to take your time when deciding whether to keep something. The dopamine hit of buying something new is huge. Once that has died down you can make a rational and practical decision. As with any new addition try on at least three different outfits to see how they will enhance your current wardrobe. Any questions or comments welcome. A x
Happy New Year everyone! With love from me and my sticky out hair. Adored wearing my feather brooch - nothing like feathers to make you feel party ready -even if I did eat a few during the festivities. Here’s to 2022 - the only way is up x
