I often lust after very high-heeled shoes when I'm browsing the internet - the temptation to make my legs look impossibly long, to be teetering over the rest of the world, to get that near-vertical arch to my foot that is so inexplicably sexy often threatens my good...
There are very few things that make me feel instantly festive; I do love Christmas, I just don't think I love it quite as much as everyone else. I need a massive dose of nostalgia to get me going - songs crooned by Nat King Cole, films like Home Alone and It's A...
With festive party season getting well underway, I thought you might appreciate a little fashion tip-off. This is the Belgrave Jumpsuit from Boden and I have been absolutely showered with compliments every time I've worn it. Saying that makes me cringe a bit, but it's...
Don't groan; there's another new title for my (defunct) monthly favourites that I'm testing. Basically the gist of what I'm trying to get across to people, via one lousy title that's really hard to decide on, is that these are the very best, most effective beauty...
Angelica: started pre-school in September and has aged by around eight years in just three months. I've never seen anything like it. I dropped her off a fine-haired, slightly apprehensive baby, and now she comes back home with all the sass of a teenager after a...
There's a new addition to L'Oreal's Pure Clay mask range and it couldn't have launched at a better time. The Pure Clay Soothing Mallow Mask has been formulated with more sensitive skin in mind which makes it perfect for winter-worn, partied-out skin that needs a bit...
Christmas Gift Guide for kids - a hell of a lot more enjoyable than compiling the men's gift guide, I can tell you! Although sifting through the tonnes of plastic crap to find nice stuff is a bit of a mission - plastic pots of goo, plastic bags filled with plastic...
I had forgotten how much I like this rich, instantly-soothing face cream from Chanel. It contains just ten ingredients (hence the Solution 10) and has been carefully and cleverly formulated so that it's suitable for even the most sensitive skin. No fragrance (a rarity...
I'm writing this post on the train to Paddington. My MacBook Pro, which is too big to fit on the pull-down table, is wedged sideways on my lap so that I'm having to type around a corner. My iPhone, which lasts approximately three minutes before running out of battery...
Here are the contents of my makeup bag, accurate to two weeks ago today. In all honesty, I'm not a huge fan of the Camo Luxe palette and so that has since been swapped out (for Tilbury's Vintage Vamp, if you must know, which is one of the greatest eye quads of all...
Best Beauty Buys with Nadine Baggott. There are a lot of Bs in that title - it's a good job Nadine wasn't named Brenda! I have two very professional, completely serious videos for you to catch up on. I promise you that there are absolutely no rude bits whatsoever and...
Here we go then, bang on time with my Christmas Gift Guides (I get lots of complaints when I leave them any later): we'll start with presents for the ladies in your life. Mums, sisters, friends and daughters or, alternatively, yourself. There's no shame in forwarding...
