Pink frill & bow trench coat £59.00 Miss Selfridge, might not be the rainy season just yet but I'm sure its close ha ha, I love this coat and it can be warn into the transition period to Autumn/Winter...

Hair Icons!!

Victoria Beckham has always been very daring with her hairstyles and has changed them alot over the years...

Jennifer Anniston had the most copied 'do' of all time in 1994 it was named 'The Rachel' from her character in Friends. The style was created by LA Hairstylist and Jennifers close friend Chris Mcmillan. She Still has one of the most famous hair styles which is simple but classy-love it:)

Farrah Fawcett and her famous flicks were huge in the 70's and can still be seen on the red carpet today... In 1976 she joined the Charlies Angles and her poster broke sales records making her the best-selling pin-up of all time!!!

Hair Trends for the SUMMER!

Apparently Red is the new blonde but I'm not too sure I would dare go red after been blonde for so long... My sister is going red on Wednesday after been chocolate brown for years, and she has never really ventured from the hair style she has as she has always been too scared I cant wait to see her with a change... after all I have had many different hair styles and some were a disaster!!

Cheryl Tweedy has the most asked for hair style recently, and it is easier to achieve than you think, simply apply Velcro rollers and apply plenty of heat but don't take the rollers out until cool as the curl will collapse if you take it out when still warm... I love this relaxed look it looks effortless but also classy :)

I am going to the races this weekend for my birthday and have really been struggling what to wear!! I decided on a maxi dress and have bought two -

you cant really see the second one but it is white, strapless and quite fitted so now iv got to decide which one :)

Twilight Eclipse!!

I went to see the new twilight film on Saturday it was brilliant, before I had seen any of the films I really didnt think I would like them... But I absoloutly love them all and I cant wait for the next one:) !!
