Tesco magazine blog

I'm on a mission to help ladies dress their amazing body shapes in simple and easy steps so they can look gorgeous and stunning every day.

The most common comment I hear from ladies is ' I don't know what body shape I am' and 'I really don't know what suits me'.

Well, I am so excited to have written my first blog post for real women for Tesco Magazine, you can read more here on  'How to dress for YOUR shape', it gives you some of my great hints and tips on dressing each body shape, I'm sure you'll love it.

These tips are so easy to follow, I'd love your comments on both the post and the tips and I would really love to hear what other styling tips you need.

Lots of love

Loving these!

I just love wandering around the high street, finding new pieces that I just know are the pieces ( or ones like it ) to have for this AW season.

And I am pleased not to disappoint you........

I love these great items from Zara. This T.shirt is of silk material with the figure print which is so on trend this season and looks gorgeous teamed with the silver jeans and cranberry coloured calf height boots. I would add in either a leather jacket or the wool coat below. If you want to tone the look down a little add the t.shirt to a pair of black,grey or indigo jeans or leggings.
You can then add in new high boots and a long line cardi to completley change the look and give it a softer feel.

I chose to wander around around Zara yesterday and I have to say I was really impressed. There are some stunning pieces which you can wear on a daily basis or on an evening out.....the choice is yours.

I found more excellant pieces in Top Shop too, I'll post them tomorrow.

Style Staples for AW

I know the high street is quite a daunting place but please remember all the high street stores are carrying a twist of the same trends, they are holding collections that suit their customer base.

I thought it would be quite nice to show you what I found today and I think you can use thse are some of your Autumn/Winter Style staples.

I know you will all wear these trends according to your personality and lifestyle but don't be afraid to try out something new.

A little bit of sparkle in these fab shoes from M & S and a great 60's style dress from my favourite
H & M

Then these stunning suede tassel shoes from M & S will look great with this team and brown pleated skirt from H & M, I have then added in a gorgeous gold glitter jumper and a little fur gillet, both from H & M. They all look fabulous worn together. I would add in a feather necklace or pair of earrings to complete the look.

Keeping on the glitter and sparkle theme I found this gorgeous jumper from H & M which will look super with a pair of indigo jeans or why not pop it over a pair of bright orange jeans/trousers.

I just love the 'animal' themed jumper from Top Shop, again this looks great with a pair of electric blue jeans or why not pop it over a pencil skirt with a leather jacket. You will see loads of these style jumpers around, I think quite kitch.

The weather has been so changeable over the past few weeks this gorgeous 'channel' style coat from Zara is just perfect to keep you warm but also look amazing. I love the fact it can be worn over a dress or with trousers or all types. It is a great base neutral colour so can be mixed with loads of the super colours this season.

So, who hasn't seen this style of dresses this season, they come in an array of colours and look fab with platform courts, wedges, boots, biker boots, leather jackets, scarves. For me, this is THE dress to have this season as it could be worn every day of the week but look different each time......I may just try that!!!

These are just a few pieces that can be added to your exisitng Autumn/Winter wardrobe to inject the new seasons trends. Do let me know how you get on.

Please don't pack me away!

Well, what an amazing weekend we have had with this glorious and unxpected sunshine. But, it left me wondering how many of you had already packed away your summer clothes and now had a full wardrobe only of your winter garments.


It wouldn't surprise me if this caused a real problem.......which is why I would recommend that you don't pack away your summer clothes and allow them to work for you in the cooler months too. Here are my tips;


* Use T.shirts as a base, wear them under a dress or pop a cardi over the top. Use them as a layering garment.


* Shirts were back with a vengeance this summer, add a funky blazer or waistcoat to them when the temperature is cooler


* For summer dresses, simply add a long sleeve t.shirt underneath to layer the look and add a little bit of warmth. My recommend is H & M for these. They are the best quality, they don't shrink nor do they fade


Make the most from your wardrobe


lots of love
