Don’t put these clothes in your shopping basket. Every season there are new ‘in’ trends. Some of them are great and will look good on most people…. And some are best left to avant grade photo shoots in the glossy mags. I’m often asked by clients what trends are in each season, so I thought …

Is your wardrobe ageing you?
If you have these 5 items in it, maybe! Did you know there’s a huge debate taking place among teenagers on TikTok about how you part your hair? Apparently side partings are ‘old’! Crikey! I’m only in the middle parting camp because of an awful cowlick. Fret not if you have a side parting as …
