Trend Watch: The Return of the Scrunchy
Post by CM Remember that episode of Sex and the City that puts the nail in the coffin of Carrie and Berger’s relationship, when she’s waxing lyrical about his new book but then makes a tiny lighthearted observation that the main female character, who’s supposed to be a glamourous gal about NYC, would never, ever wear […]
MoreWardrobe Raiders A/W16
Post by CM I’ve lately been in a quandry, and dear readers I suspect that many of you are in the same position.

Everything I wore was tight back in the early 2000s. That’s beside the point, though; it’s the sporty top that matters. It’s yet another […]

Post by CM When I think about Katherine Hepburn, I think about not only her greatest roles – Jo Marsh in Little Women, Tracy Lord in The Philadelphia Story, Christina Drayton in Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner to name but a few – but of her impeccable style, how it endures and how her confidence […]
