Dear diary… On day five of LFW AW14 I joined a cult. The cult of K-T-Z. Things had begun to wind down, and those of us who’d been wearing heels for 5 days straight were feeling a little fatigued.

(Getting old) and I was feeling a … Continue reading FASHION: LFW AW14/15 Diary Day One
I’ve been working hard on the fashionable 5:2 front to get bikini ready for the summer ahead. Most brands are now releasing their summer swimwear so it’s great inspiration to stay motivated. I’ve been in a swimwear rut the past few years, buying one red bikini after another with some sort of Baywatch mind block preventing me from branching out. I’ve got my eye on … Continue reading FASHION: Swimspiration
