YOU LOVED our High-Waisted Shorts for Summer Days selections so much, we couldn’t wait to share another variation of this look. Instead of cream or beige-coloured shorts with white or blue shirts, this alternative involves mixing black tops and white shorts.
One of the most-asked questions is about my beauty and makeup routine. My skincare regimen changes with the seasons, with less makeup and rich moisturisers in the summertime, and the opposite in the winter. It's especially important to care for your skin in the wintertime because the cold, dry air can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry, itchy, and more susceptible to cracking and irritation.
AFTER THE past few Christmases in lockdown, you may be attending a few holiday get-togethers this season and may even be planning to dress up for a festive soirée.

WE TRIED TO come up with a few different ideas this year for the men in your life⏤a silver retro-style rotary-inspired telephone, an all-aluminium suitcase, an eggplant serving platter, and a striped throw cushion. There are, of course, old favourites as well: a Fair Isle jumper, a cashmere scarf and glove set, a cedarwood candle and more.
Every year, there are always people on our lists that are difficult to buy for⏤good neighbours who surprise you with a thoughtful gift even though you had nothing for them; your boss or favourite co-workers, or your Aunt Margaret who's suddenly decided to come stay from out of town. We normally have things saved away for such emergencies and thought that we might create chic Gift Boxes for our readers to keep for similar situations that might come up ...
A new range of candles have arrived at The Shop: made of 100% soy wax, these candles burn slowly and envelope the room in a warm, cosy scent. And better yet, they help those with disabilities find meaningful work. From raw materials to end product, this range was produced at a sheltered employment facility where people who need a little extra help receive services and training to develop work-related skills.

ONE OF OUR favourite Mini Trends of the moment is the very chic pairing of a pair of flared blue jeans with a silk scarf tied in the hair, which is set in a pretty half ponytail. It's pretty and romantic and perfect for these October days when paired with a soft cardigan, cableknit jumper or even a puff-sleeved blouse or white t-shirt if it's a warm day. Here are a few of our favourite ways to style the look, as well as few shopping links ...
THE LEAVES are turning and it's all back to work and school. Autumn is on the way in the Northern Hemisphere and there is no going back. We're slowly letting go of our linen dresses, bare shoulders and summer whites and adding our favourite autumn things back in everyday dressing. Here, we've rounded up a few items to add to your shopping list: a cosy cashmere turtleneck, a pair of straight suit trousers, and a great handmade belted wool coat...
THERE ARE five days left of August, and if you're one of those people who do not wear white past the first week of September, then you don't have much time left. End things on a high note with this ultra-chic outfit of high-waisted wide-leg pleated trousers, a sleeveless turtle neck and cosy knit jumper wrapped casually around your shoulders for when the temperature drops. We included our favourite selection of trousers to shop, and while we were unable to find many sleeveless turtlenecks (although this might work), we did find a number of perfect alternatives...  
EVEN THOUGH there is only one week of August left, we're not ready to leave summer behind yet, but do feel that some transitional pieces are in order for these cool August nights, and the first piece on our shopping list is the crisp blue shirt. Wear it with white trousers to keep the summery vibe going, or with blue jeans for a monochrome look. Here is our favourite way to style this indispensable wardrobe staple, as well as some shopping links...
THERE IS only one bank holiday weekend left this summer, in the last week of August, so there feels like an urgency to wear all of our favourite summer outfits before it's too late.

Whether tucked or untucked, a t-shirt or a blouse, ankle-length pants or long pleated trousers, here are a few ways we like to style this mini trend...
