Accessible Style by Elle, StilettoWheels & PlusBlackNovember 12, 2012October 21, 2013

Beauty, style, illness and disability

Flipping through the December issue of UK Harpers Bazaar, I thought this Marchesa dress, worn by Marion Cotillard was just breathtakingly beautiful. Like most people, I imagine, I would have no cause to wear such a garment myself even supposing I had the body – and I do not – to carry it off and/or […]

Fantastical style from Meadham and Kirchhoff for Spring 2013

Browsing Colette Online, I saw this truly fantastic scarf by Meadham Kirchhoff.  Ridiculous price, about £1,400, but I love it to distraction. Totally unaware of Meadham Kirchhoff up to this point, I clicked across to their site and found their Spring 2013 video running and how zanily wonderful it is.  Haven’t felt so uplifted since the […]

More hats, wraps and booties … from Perilla, based in the UK

I’m not even sure how I stumbled across the Perilla website, though they do sell on Not On The High Street as well as from their own site so maybe I came across them there as, at this time of the year, I’m always browsing. My eye was caught by their range of soft, fluffy […]

Oska in London – great for plus sizes

Great news for those who know the German brand, OSKA – they’re opening a London branch at 27 New Cavendish Street, W1G 9TX, t: 020 7224 0676.  They have also set up a new and improved online shop Oska-London. Comparable to the US brand, Eileen Fisher in price point – so not cheap but not […]

Feeling furry …?

I found myself thinking about hats again this week – not uncommon at this time of the year as I often buy D something warm for his (shaven) head for Christmas.  Last Christmas, I bought a hat of some sort for pretty much everyone I know. One of my favourite sources is the Canadian company, […]

Thinking about concept, demographics and generating interest …

There’s nothing like criticism to focus the mind, is there? Describe the woman who is interested in the +Black concept.  How many times have I been asked that … and failed to provide a succinct answer?  Too many times for my own comfort so, let me try to be clear. The +Black demographic includes: Grown-up […]

Plus size shopping in the US – some favourite designer brands

Plus size shopping in the US is so much easier than in the UK, possibly even enjoyable.  All the major department stores have huge plus size ranges and ship to the UK.  If you buy a few things at a time, it’s not prohibitively expensive even with tax and import duties.  I’d recommend Saks, Neiman […]
