This year my resolution was to be a “smart shopper”…that means no impulse buying for me. Well I’m happy to report that so far so good, and to ensure I stay on track, I’m…
a. Doing all of my sale shopping online to avoid any unplanned purchases
and
b. Investing in items that will carry me effortlessly from […]

my-wardrobe.com team

Friday 27th June 2008 10.58 am

Now that black is officially the new black, and summer society events are in full swing, an age old dilemma springs to the forefront of any self respecting fashionista’s mind: Is it acceptable to wear black to a wedding?

The most flattering of colours, the chicest of shades and an all time classic, the answer […]

my-focus: Bags of taste

my-wardrobe.com team

Thursday 26th June 2008 10.38 am

Fashion one-upmanship has long been about one accessory above any other – the bag. IT bags are seen as a status symbol as well as a style choice and the birth of a new fashion season means an enticing new array of delicious arm-candy, hooray! With Mulberry, the king of super-luxe handbags on board at […]

my-dilemma: fashion versus football

my-wardrobe.com team

Wednesday 25th June 2008 10.44 am

We’re sure like many women you’ve been unable to avoid the football over the past few weeks - the European Championships have officially kidnapped our men and even some of our girl friends (apparently, not all girls are adverse to the beautiful game!). Now, this is a huge disappoinment. Many of us at my-wardrobe HQ assumed we’d […]

my-Life : Walk like an Egyptian

my-wardrobe.com team

Wednesday 25th June 2008 10.29 am

So back from Egypt, the memories of poolside lounging are now a distant memory and the tan already feels as though it deserted me at Cairo airport. There are bonuses however, thanks to a lapse of concentration during my Egyptian stay, I found myself brushing my teeth with tap water…

my-tv: me and my new camera

my-wardrobe.com team

Friday 20th June 2008 12.31 pm

So… day nine in the my-wardrobe house (absolutely no reference to the dreaded Big Brother here) and I have officially passed the one week mark as part of the family. I have been an extra pair of hands around the office and just loved every minute, from shadowing my my-tv mentor across London on our […]

my-photo: Captured forever!

my-wardrobe.com team

Thursday 19th June 2008 9.03 am

At my-wardrobe towers we’re not adverse to pulling a ‘photo face’ and pouting the instant a camera is aimed at us. But when it comes to having a professional portrait taken, for work or for fun, what we wear will be frozen in time for all to see years after fashion trends have faded.

my-ode: to the Tux

my-wardrobe.com team

Wednesday 18th June 2008 11.08 am

I’ve never been one of those girls with constant crushes on boys (apart from Luke ‘90210′ Perry when I was 13, and now my husband - of course), but I do have to plead guilty to having frequent fashion crushes. These are either for items I’m lusting after or for a female celebrity whose style […]

my-sale: no pushing… how refreshing!

my-wardrobe.com team

Tuesday 17th June 2008 9.41 am
