I remember my mum’s handbag being very symbolic. There it stood, a quilted leather Chanel dupe with a gold chain, always […]
Why we’re raiding grandma’s wardrobe this winter
Hello Nana. This season we’re finally embracing age, and it comes in the form of what I like to call ‘the granny knit’. Think vintage, hand knitted style jumpers and cardies, but most importantly of all, they have to look as though they could be found in your grandma’s wardrobe. They remind me of those […]
Why every woman needs some PVC in her wardrobe
I first wore PVC in 2013. It was a black vinyl pencil skirt, and one of my close friends told me it prompted her boyfriend to tell her he wanted to slap my bum. We didn’t hold it against him, about three of my girlfriends had already made contact with my cheeks that night, because […]

Are Christmas jumpers over?
I remember inviting all my friends to a Christmas party about seven years ago and stipulating that they all find an ugly Christmas jumper to wear.
