There was a saying “red and green should never be seen”, but those days are gone. My personal favourite is hot pink and orange. Colour-blocking is taking colours that are opposites on the […]

I was a huge fan of Princess Diana. I fell in love with her and watched her evolve from a very young self-conscious Sloane into a style icon. She was on the cover of Hello every week and I bought it religiously. With the new series of The Crown – I hope they will be […]
