First item I love from the Spring/Summer Fashion Week shows? You got it – hats. Very specifically, these hats from Creatures of Comfort. I suspect I’d look ridiculous in them in my wheelchair – proportions all wrong – but hey, you like what you like whether it works for you or not, right?. Waiting for […]
MoreAm looking at Daniela Gregis collections and loving everything I see. Sold at Few and Far in the UK, I believe, and am investigating now … watch this space.
MoreSome years ago, I bought D some rather unique looking tusk cufflinks – see below – from Shaun Leane.

MoreBeautiful Simone Rocha Coat seen in the FT’s How To Spend It App this weekend. Silk-mix and not cheap, £896, but a design that would suit lots of shapes and plus-sizes. So pretty.
MoreFabulous shoes, dontcha’ think? Bags, belts and purses too. All from Maiko Dawson whose site I was directed to by a friend who knew I was looking for some bespoke shoes … with some style. I know. You’re fed up with me whining on about my swollen feet and the ghastly granny style orthopaedic comfort […]
