Red Valentino, the younger sister label to Valentino, has been a fashion favourite of mine forever. Their look is extremely girly but still fun and very quirky. I've recently added two quirky pairs of shoes to my ever expanding wardrobe and thought I'd share. I warn you they won't be everyone's cup of tea but I believe fashion shouldn't be taken to seriously and these definitely make me smile!

Choosing an entire year of favourites and rolling it into one post proved to be a lot trickier than I originally expected! This year has absolutely flown by and I was lucky to have some really amazing moments so limiting it down to just a very few favourites was HARD! Read more

I have been very good this Christmas and got the majority of my gifts purchased, wrapped and under the tree already. So while Christmas is the season of giving, I just couldn’t resist getting on my own sneaky present "to me from me"! Personally I blame The Outnet for having one of their amazing Clearance sales during the Christmas present buying season.

I am currently in Hong Kong and I cannot express how excited I am to be here! Although I'm officially here for work I arrived early so I could have the weekend to mooch about.

Beauty Advent calendars are something I was aware of but hadn’t realised just how many brands had jumped on the bandwagon. Everyone from department stores to luxury brands to high street labels now have their own version. This will be the first year I’m going to invest in one (or two or maybe three!) and thought I’d share my comprehensive research in case anyone else is confused and undecided.

So this is a very different post for me; it is far more personal than anything I've put on That New Dress but it's something I really want to talk about and get other people's opinions on. It is no secret I am single and so here is my problem, according to many of my contemporaries being 26 and single is a rather sorry state of affairs. Read more
I am very lucky that Simba is able to come to pretty much everywhere with me. He comes to the office with me, meetings, restaurants, shops, you name it little Simba is by my side. London is becoming more and more of a dog friendly city. So I thought I'd give you a little run down to having a dog in London. Read more
There is no denying I'm a nosy person! I'm a big fan of the What's in my bag... blogpost as it gives us all a chance to delve into something that is usually a private and personal part of a woman's life. People are always telling me I have such a heavy bag and asking me what on earth is in there!? So here is my first ever version of this popular post...

So, I don’t think I have ever been as excited by the launch of a new beauty product as I was the Glamglow Thirstymud Hydrating Treatment. I had to check it out immediately and share my thoughts on it!
