As mentioned in the last Take10 post I swapped the Debenhams skirt we were sent for a sweatshirt from Miss Selfridge. I like the grey and black colouring of this top, as well as the sheer panels on t...
Little black dress that I bought in the Zara sale for the bargain price of £16 a few months back. It’s handy for evenings out and also ok for work with tights and a cardi on top. I like the sim...
A quick post to let anyone in the Borders area know about a swishing event that my friend Susan is holding in aid of The British Heart Foundation this Saturday. Come along and swap unwanted clothes, ...

Of the things I’ve ordered from Sarenza UK, much as I enjoy them all there’s nothing I love more than my Love Moschino zip handbag. It’s a bit of a Tardis bag as it’s a very n...
I’ve been looking for a new swimsuit to replace my dull Speedo one-piece (and help motivate me to get to the pool 3 times a week) and recently came across lingerie retailer Fox & Rose. As w...
Picked up this simple white shift dress in H&M Trend last week for just £30. The Trend label is fantastic for good quality, design-led pieces at realistic prices. In Scotland it’s only stoc...

When Idealo asked if I’d like to be involved in their spring dress challenge to find a dress for S/S ’12 that cost less than £100 I jumped at the chance. Nothing says summer dress more th...
Although I’m just over 5’7″ I sometimes buy things designed for tall girls if I feel the proportions are better. Topshop dresses and tops are often just that bit too short on me but...

I’ve seen a few bloggers raving about the Zara black suede fringed jacket but I tried it on and it was a really awkward and unflattering fit on me: Love this suede and leather bomber jacket fro...
I’ve liked grey marl sweatshirts and T-shirts ever since I saw Flashdance, goodness only knows how many years ago. This short-sleeved version from Zara has a longer length cream chiffon layer u...
I’m bored wth the bootcut and wide-legged trousers I wear to work so picked up this jacquard pair in Zara earlier this week. Smart enough for the office but good for dressing up with heels at t...
