Fashion Repeating?

Really nowadays thanks to the media and magazines we should be buying clothes and only daring to wear them once! To me this is utterly barmy! I buy clothes and not only do I wear them once, I wear them until they break and fall to pieces! How can we go shopping and find a dress that is beautifully perfect and fits our figure so well and wear it only once, if you feel amazing in that dress wear it again and again! And don't be afraid of what your friends or some may call 'critics' will say about you outfit repeating, you really should only care about the new found confidence the dress has given you. Now, I must say buying the perfect dress or pair of jeans that makes your bum look like the lady's off the Special K advert can make your wage slip disappear into thin air! Simply for that reason when I'm forking out £60 for my new pair of jeans, I'm going to wear them until they disintegrate! These days we like to invest in pieces and have them last a life time, we should be able to buy statement pieces and wear them over and over again! So, don't be afraid to outfit repeat! Only thing I ask is that you wait a few weeks before you do!

Strolling down the Marbella front!


 Quick jet set break to Marbella for a few days! I must say my preconceptions of the Marbella luxury were quite wrong I expected orange women with plastic looks walking down the beach with glitter high heeled platforms on! But to be honest it really is a lovely coastal resort in Spain with a mixture of all cultures enjoying the glimmering weather! The weather in Spain wasn't the best I could of wished for, as the day I took the photos was the only afternoon of sun we got, which left us doing a lot of shopping to hide from the rain! Marbella has some luxury shopping centres just minutes from the resort and  the fashion showcased inside is a mixture of catwalk trends with European twist! Walking into stores like Pull & Bear, Blanco and Cortefiel I see the 'of the moment' trend camouflage but seen in summery dresses and shorts! Ideal for the weather in Spain! Browsing in those shopping centres is essential with a trip to Spain but only on the days your not soaking up the sun, it is a holiday afterall!
