Feel Good Fashion & Beauty Tips
I’m back in chilly England - but mentally I’m still on a beach in Dubai! It was great to enjoy the sights of the city, feel the warm sunshine, and take a dip in the pool… Just what the soul and body needed in the middle of winter!
I’m rounding up this week’s Feel Good Fashion & Beauty favourites from my content on Instagram - Dubai content now live!
Chances are, you are missing this important item in your wardrobe.... ⚡️
Do you own a Sockboot?!
Why you need one:
Sockboots can be super handy in creating flattering outfits, as they don’t add extra bulk to your ankle - which is naturally one of our slimmest parts.
One of my most popular style tips, for any body shape, is to show off your wrists and ankles as often as possible for the most flattering and feminine shape.
You lose this effect with a chunkier Chelsea boot for example.
Sock boots are particularly great with skirts, dresses and cut off jeans like these.
ThIs pair are by the brilliant brand Vivaia who are just fabulous - they cater for a range of calf sizes in ultra-comfy, super-sustainable recycled plastic bottles (yes really) made into a clever, malleable knitted material which is water repellent and even washable! 😍
Vivaia have a great range of loafers for the Spring too, and are reasonably priced - well worth checking out.

Holiday Dress Inspiration
Introducing.... lots of gorgeous newness by wonderful, home-grown, female-founded brand Lexi London 😍
The wonderful team at Lexy London are so talented! They design beautiful quality, well cut clothing for real women, and I can assure you it’s so practical and comfortable you will practically live in it!
I have felt very lucky to be able to pop out to Dubai for a week and soak up the sun and a spot of luxury... if you haven’t been before, it’s such a melting pot - of cultures, people, cuisine - the food and service is some of the best in the world! 💫
We are staying at the One And Only Royal Mirage - at the Arabian Court - and feel utterly pampered. Can highly recommend!

Liquid Rainbow
I can’t do sultry for long!
Introducing…. Liquid rainbow - by the ultra talented Sophia Alexia 🤩
One of the loveliest people in the ‘biz, if you haven’t discovered Sophia Alexia yet, they need to be on your radar, as, if you are a colour lover like me, you’ll be in sartorial heaven! 🌈
Simply the most beautiful, vivid, colourful prints in beautiful drapey fabrics designed to flatter.
This is their Capri Kimono, made in the softest Viscose Drape, I’m a size 10 and am wearing a S/M - underneath you can see the matching Tahiti Twist swimsuit - I’m in a 10 and it’s perfect - and for what it’s worth, hubby said it made my bum look great! You’ve got to take ALL the compliments where you can get them right?! 💛
Slowly but surely I am building quite the collection of Sophia Alexia resort-wear - and as another small, UK female-founded brand, I can highly recommend them!

❤️💫 Unwrap the Comfort of Self-Care Through Fashion this February 💫❤️
As we embrace the month of love, let’s not forget the most important relationship of all - the one with ourselves. This February, let fashion be your love letter to self-care. Here’s how to wrap yourself in the warmth of well-being, one outfit at a time 🌷
❣️Cosy Comfort: Start with comfort at the core. Choose soft, breathable fabrics that feel good on your skin. Think cashmere sweaters, silky smooth linens, or soft cotton tees that make you feel at home, wherever you are, natural fabrics are the kindest, both to you and Mother 🌎
❣️ Colour Therapy: Infuse your wardrobe with colours that brighten your day. Whether it’s the calm serenity of blues, the cheerful vibrancy of yellows, or the passionate punch of reds, let your clothing reflect your mood and lift your spirits. It really works!✨
❣️ Mindful Accessories: Select pieces that have personal meaning or bring you joy. A cherished piece of jewellery, a scarf gifted by a loved one, or a beautifully made bag with which many memories were made can serve as a daily reminder of love and appreciation.
❣️ Dress for You: Forget the trends and dress in what makes YOU feel good. Use fashion as a tool to express your unique self and to celebrate your individuality. When you show up for yourself in this way, confidence naturally follows.
❣️ Self-Expression is Self-Care: Why not let your outfit be an extension of your creativity?! Experiment with styles, mix patterns, or wear something that challenges you. The real growth occurs when you step out of your comfort zone, and your self-esteem will follow.
This month, let’s get mindful and make every outfit a positive decision that leads to a greater sense of wellbeing. How will you weave wellness into your wardrobes this February?

My new favourite beach dress! 😍
I’m back home now (brrrr), but still have lots of gorgeous resort wear to share with you - so keep your eyes peeled if you are planning a trip to the sun...
Starting with this stunning frock! Dress it up or down, it gives great swoosh, is 100% cotton, holds you in at the bust and has the most glorious full skirt that is just perfect for twirling! 💃🏼
I go bra-less as it’s super supportive, and have worn it endlessly this trip - I think it’s safe to say I’m in love!
If you haven’t checked out Outdazl yet for their amazing summery collection I can highly recommend them for all things sunshine.
This beauty is by Miss June Paris via Outdazl - it’s one size, I’m a UK 10 and it’s fine 👌🏼
Outdazl also stock my lovely belt too - the one I styled with my gorgeous Lexi London dress a few days ago - I’ll pop a pic on stories so you remember, it fits everyone, comes in one size and is super handy.
