Every holiday season I seem to have a favourite dress. It started from a very young age. When I was little we used to go to England for Christmas to visit my grandparents and every Christmas my mother would make me a special dress to wear for Christmas day. One year she made me aContinue reading
I love music videos that make me think "what genre is this!?" It takes about half the video just to acclimatize yourself, and the last half features stunt-sex dance moves that I must admit I haven’t seen before. The link to the video is above, but you have to watch it on youtube because ofContinue reading
I never really loved menswear until I moved to London, and then of course I fell in love with it. The men just seem to have more style and more attitude in London. So it only seems natural that there is a group of up and coming talented menswear designers in the UK and CarolynContinue reading

This shot was taken on a shoot in the Rocky Mountains. It was magical, the drive was incredible and we saw so many amazing animals. I wish Christmas could be like this. Somehow the magic seems lost with adulthood and the expectations are so high but then you have these days thoughout the year whereContinue reading

During the past couple of years we’ve read about lots of luxury shops being victims of the smash-and-grab raiders – it almost felt like if your shop wasn’t a target you weren’t fashionable anymore. The Anya Hindmarch shop near Bond Street was been targeted several times, Watches of Switzerland, which sells Breitling, Cartier and FranckContinue reading
It’s offical! I’m addicted to headbands. I just can’t help it, every shop I go in I immediately head to the head-gear searching for my ultimate quick fix. Shopping in Topshop at the weekend I shrieked with joy as I discovered a pair of Louis Vuitton style bunny ears and, I’ll be honest with youContinue reading

Over the years I’ve had the pleasure of appearing on the other side of the camera for various TV segments. It’s a wonderful compliment when I get asked to appear as a beauty expert. I love to "talk makeup". This past week I filmed a segment for Gok Wan’s How to Look Good Naked. I’veContinue reading

The party was at celeb hang-out Whiskey Mist in Mayfair and consisted of pink cocktails, pink cupcakes and dazzling shoes – the perfectContinue reading
I’m surprised at myself: I’m starting to admire Cheryl Cole. It’s not that I disliked her or Girls Aloud – I just didn’t love them. I was always happy to hear a song while en route somewhere and watch the occasional video, but it wasn’t something I was searching myspace for… but after watching herContinue reading
