COATS FLOAT MY BOAT

Do you like my title? (Forever trying to be cool).

Now I know what you're thinking, 'why on earth is she doing a post

about coats when it is very nearly Spring?' and yes, I agree with you,  but

the thing is, I'm English. And this is important for three things:

1) Burberry and Barbour et al all come from here. Loving coats and everything

is practically in our blood.

2) Our signature style normally involves some fancy, smart tailored coat

of sorts (think Sherlock)

3) The majority of the year it is either rainy, windy , cold or grey, for instance today it

began nice and sunny and warm and within the space of four hours it has turned cloudy,

so from about September to April WE NEED A COAT.

And lastly, I am a great believer in the magic of a good coat.

It's incredible how the addition of a tailored, good fitting, neutral coloured,

nicely cut coat can completely transform an outfit.

I can wear sports gear (not that I own any), put a said coat on top

and voila, I somehow look ten times more fashionable and stylish than

I did a minute ago.

HERE ARE SOME OF MY FAVOURITES.... 

  

   

   

   

    

  

  

  

THE RISE OF THE PASTEL BOB

Lately I've noticed that a certain

hairstyle, which I have christened 'the pastel bob',

has been popping up amongst

frequenters of the celeb world as 2013 draws to a close

and 2014 waves hello over the not to distant horizon.

As you can guess, it's basically a bob which

has been dyed a gorgeous pastel hued tone and I don't know

about you, but I think that they look

pretty damn cute.

CELEB EXAMPLE TIME, READY SET GO

1) Kelly Osbourne has had her luscious lilac locks

trimmed into an Anna Wintour style bob which

perfectly frames her heart shaped face.

2) The lovely R1 DJ Fearne Cotton has recently reverted 

back to her fabulous candyfloss pink do which she

had previously frequented whilst pregnant with son Rex.

PHOTO TIME, READY SET GO
