DKNY Ramadan Capsule Collection
When a brand knows it customer it shows. When a brand believes its bottom line goes deeper than just dollar signs, you can easily tell. This is an example of a brand that appreciates and celebrates the diversity of its customers, understands their cultural identity and sensitivity, and pays homage by tailoring the brand to her lifestyle.

Brunch- The World Cup
Okay, except you have been living under a rock the world cup is on and popping, its summer, and everything is all go. If you’ve been watching the matches you would have shared the highs, the lows, the hmmm, and the arghhh!! This is brunch with everyone, out in the garden, big screen tv, barbecue going,…

Brunch- Festival
I am not a festival going person, I don’t understand the appeal, can’t do the crowds, the mush pit, I hate the fact that you can never see the acts on stage or properly hear the music. Loathe the stink of so much weed in the air laced in with body odour. And I most…

Mansur Gavriel- The Bucket List
When it comes to handbags I’m a girl that pretty much knows what I want- hobo or soft leather, pebbled sometimes, a little rough around the edges and malleable. Sometimes I may take a stroll on the periphery but I will always come back to my staple points. In that sense, most of my handbags…

When they were relegated to gardening attire for grandmas, never to been seen in out of the four walls of the home? Remember when you last wore overalls? Possibly when you still had braces and Dora the Explorer…

The Row- Nylon Sling Hobo. A No, No.

Kate Moss For Topshop
I remember when the first Kate Moss for Topshop collection dropped, you literally could not move on Oxford Street that day as the model herself posed in the store window at its grand opening, ensuring that one of the busiest, if not the busiest, streets in London was commuter hell. I also remember seeing…
