What Goes and What Clashes?

I received this a while ago, & I’ve been thinking about it ever since: What clashes? What colours don’t go together? What can’t you wear with what? Stripes and polka dots? Stripes and more stripes?

First Impressions Count and the Value of Image Consultation

Marie Antoinette Style

Let them eat cake! I recently saw Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette & really enjoyed it. Normally I loathe period films, & Kirsten Dunst doesn’t do much for me much either, but this was a complete visual thrill. The clothing was as amazing as the colour-scheme & the cakes were incredible. Anyway, I really liked the […]
