I’ve been wondering for a while now if people actually like Katy Perry. I don’t have a large family and none of my friends have children, so I don’t really come across kids that often (uhm, is that phrased OK?).
The only teenager I actually know is my boyfriend’s cousin, who has thankfully inherited a supreme taste for heavy metal music and couldn’t offer any light on the subject when I asked him this weekend. My colleagues and...

Big headbands and frilly fascinators are usually reserved for weddings, posh horse races, and special occasions. But I'm thinking nothing else would make a particularly dull day in the office a bit more lively than having a lovely bit of craft on top of your head.
From big bows, to little birds, some of the fascinators for sale online are incredibly creative (and some incredibly expensive) and I can't help but wonder if there's anyway one could get away with wearing a fascinator every...

The sun might well be out now, but Glastonbury is only a week away which can mean only one thing – torrential rain is coming.
Contrary to what Kate Moss and co might have you believe, festivals require practical clothing. Waterproofs aren’t traditionally glamorous, but I’ve scoured the web to find a selection of anoraks that go above and beyond the call the duty. Because let’s face it, not all of us have a backstage pass and Winnebago to retreat to when the clouds break…

I’m starting to feel old, and I think I’ve now passed that magical limit where I see fashion I actually remember get back in style.
I’m talking about the '90s. You might have noticed an sudden increase of hipsters wearing flowery cotton dresses, Doc Martens, plaid and black stockings. It’s all coming baaaack.

Mary’s Living and Giving shop has been trading in The Village of London’s Westfield shopping centre for a couple of weeks now, and has raised in exce...

While standing in the check out at the grocery store, you may have noticed a couple things while you waited to purchase your booze and readymeal: It's SUMMER.
The tabloid covers are full of photos of everyone's "bikini bodies". And there's always that one magazine that points their shriveled, dry little finger at you and asks: "Are YOU Bikini Ready?"

I have long been a fan of Lush's solid shampoo bars. Sure, some of them smell funny, and occasionally leave little lumps of stuff in your shower, but they get the job done better than anything else I've tried. I've been hesitant to try their conditioners because, like most women, my hair is temperamental and doesn't like a lot of things subject it to. But I let go of my conditioning fea...

There are no words to express my hatred for Peaches Geldof.
Interestingly her younger and older sisters don’t bother me at all – even though their ‘careers’ appear to be almost as flaky as Peaches’s.
Her dad (Sir Bob of Geldof) is a total knob, but then we all know that.
Things I hate about Peaches:

Being Vegetarian isn't exactly a walk in the park.
You have hot dog vendors on every corner, your friends who will happily order a burger RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU, and then sometimes you'll order the salmon and people around you will freak out and not understand that eating fish isn't the same as eating, I dunno, veal, and that, no, they're not the Kittens of the Sea.
