Kate Middleton Valentine’s Day visit: How the Duchess of Cambridge stayed fashionable and warm in Liverpool

Lucinda Currey — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 13:17:58 +0000

ITS the perennial problem faced by women everywhere at this time of year just how do you manage to stay stylish and warm?

Yesterday, the Duchess of Cambridge gave us a masterclass in cosy but chic with not a hat, scarf or pair of gloves in sight to clutter her silhouette.

Her choice of a Hobbs double crepe wool coat in a rich shade of chestnut was perfect, the gentle flare from the hips giving its military tone a more feminine feel.

The leather stud fastening cuff straps and belt detailing lent it an edge, too, while the on-the-knee length was ideal for a day when she knew shed be in and out of the royal car and bending down to meet children and gather bouquets.

Savvy girl that she is, Kate snapped the coat up at the start of the season paying 369.

Singularly striking!

Sophie Kidston — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 01:41:49 +0000

Beauty can come in all shapes, sizes and colors — and that seemed to be the theme during Day 5 at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.

No two models were dressed the same, and designers celebrated women’s individuality.

Kicking off on Monday night at Betsey Johnson — who notoriously uses smiling models with more curves than the norm — there was a lot of color and sass, including Johnsons’ signature party dresses.

At Marc Jacobs, it looked as if the Mad Hatter had made a visit, dressing models in floppy hats that will keep New York’s fashion savvy warm.

On Tuesday, it was all about the patterns and prints.

Badgley Mischka started the day with ornately decorated gowns — textured with glitter, sequins and beads. To the backdr

Why would a school ban Uggs???

Sophie Kidston — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:49:08 +0000

Let me begin by saying this is NOT an issue about whether or not Uggs are cute.

I love them, many people I know dont but thats besides the point. What IS the point is apparently a middle school in Pennsylvania has banned Ugg boots!

The ban seems to not be ABOUT the boots, exactly, but the fact that their open tops make it easier to smuggle in banned items, such as cell phones.

Whatever. Are they also not allowed to wear coats with pockets??? J

Help for Thinning Hair

Hannah Marion — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 14:51:10 +0000

Thinning hair can affect any age and sex. It is common in all races and can be embarrassing. Many times the cause is heredity, but very tight braids, over processing, and stress can cause your hair to thin. Some medical conditions and medications can cause hair thinning. Men will notice a horseshoe pattern develop, the hair on the crown and front hairline will become thinner. Women tend to experience thinning hair near the front of their hairline at the front part. Changes in hormone production as we age can cause thinning hair in both men and women. Some women may notice their hair getting thin when they are pregnant, but this usually corrects itself once they give birth.

Losing 100 to 150 hairs a day is a normal part of the hair growth process.

When Bad Fit Looks Cool

Sophie Kidston — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 13:49:53 +0000

Author Kendall Farr has a charming and succinct way of putting across her thoughts about fashion and style. I particularly liked the second chapter of Style Evolution, Dressing Your Body Now, where she writes that Good fit is the equivalent of six months in the gym. Its a clever way of pinpointing the true advantage of superbly fitting clothes.

I spend a good deal of time helping clients and forum members achieve good fit because it makes a huge visual difference. It sharpens your style by making it more polished, professional, chic and sophisticated. Alt
