Naomi Campbell’s no role model

Thursday, September 30th, 2010


You don’t need reminding of Naomi Campbell’s questionable behaviour over the years, or of her fiery temper and ability to whack a handbag round a photographer’s head faster than you can say ouch, but it’s not behaviour she’s proud of – which is why she doesn’t like being called a role model.

Lunchtime buy: Winter Kate Dixie balloon sleeve tunic

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010


We’re loving tunics this season and Winter Kate’s Dixie balloon sleeve version is definitely among our favourites for autumn.

Easy to wear all year round and perfect to dress up and down, it’s the pattern and sleeves which really steal the show in Nicole Richie’s design – the pencil line print is edgy without being too rock-chick, while the sheer balloon sleeves add effortless elegance.
