Bonmarche with David Emanuel
|
|
|
This exclusive new collection was brought together by David and the design team at Bonmarche to bring a glamorous collection tailored to fit & flatter - so no matter what your size, 10 to size 28, you'll look and feel your very best.
|
|
I adore collaborating with brands like Bonmarche on my instagram as I get so many lovely messages thanking me for sharing affordable pieces and sharing how they might look styled up with a few key accessories like these gold heels & bag or a cheeky little pattern clash by combining the lemons & leopard print!

Goodwood Races
|
This is the second year that we've kindly been invited to Goodwood Races and as it coincided with the Birthday of my partner Nick, we decided to make it a weekend mini break and booked 2 nights in the Harbour Hotel in Chichester.
|
If you followed my stories on instagram you will be aware of EVERYTHING we got up to!! ;-)
|
|
Here are the links all in one place to my gorgeous outfit, including sunnies, hat, and my beautiful
|
co-ord from Hope & Ivy which I'm promised will be back in stock very soon!! Do check out their new season collection as you won't be disappointed .... see below for their Mae Cropped Ruffle Sleeve Top & Renee High Waisted co ordinating skirt and how I've styled it separately and together....

Plus I've also linked lots more of the pieces I also took away with me.

Chichester
|
|
Chichester is 4 miles from the racecourse, we stayed at the grade II listed historic town house, Harbour Hotel which has its own fine restaurant The Ship and a pleasant bar. We enjoyed dining at Purchases in the High St, the highlight being the creamy Rice Pudding with Rhubarb and Almonds.

May's Beauty Must Haves .....
|
If you haven't noticed already, I'm a FAKE TAN ADDICT!!
|
I do love getting my Vitamin D hit too but as we all know that's not great for our skin and also where the fxxk is our summer???!!
|
So I thought I'd give you a run down of my favs, in order of colour!!
|
Gatineau Golden Glow
I use this daily, in between using one or other of the darker tans below.
|
Isle of Paradise Self Tan Water is great for a quick glow up as you can get dressed immediately and let the tan develop during the day.
|
Isle of paradise 30mins express ….but sleep over night in it!! It goes on dark but don't be afraid, you shower off in the morning and you seriously look like you've been to the Bahamas!!
|
This goes in and out of stock online but available in Boots and Superdrug I'm sure.
|
|
I also love all Skinny Tan product too for a more mid to darker tan. The Tan & Oil For body & face is also a firm fav of mine.
|
I use at least Factor 30 on my face and décolletage daily, even in winter and started to use a factor 50 on my body whilst tanning in the garden or on holiday.
|
|
My go to suncreams are Dermalogica's Porescreen SPF 40 & Prisma Protects SPF 30 for every day and for body Protection 50 Sport SPF50
|

John Lewis Members Weekend
|
|
I was super excited to be invited back to John Lewis for their Members Weekend, this time at Stratford Westfield Shopping Centre.
|
It was also my absolute pleasure to co host the Spring Summer 2024 Style Talks with the fabulous John Lewis Stylists and chat through my top tips for holiday packing.
|
I will do another piece on this subject however my top tip is to follow the 3 colour pallet packing rule, see the above example using orange, khaki & blue (denim)
|
As you can see, all of these looks mix and match super easily, just by adding a few neutral pieces such as the black shorts or even a little leopard print which as we know is basically a neutral ;-)
|
I will share more on my packing tips through out the summer over on my Instagram and also in future newsletters.
|
In the meantime I've linked some of my fav pieces form the John Lewis "Summer Like This" key looks below.

Charlotte Tilbury Make up
|
|
|
|
Seriously how gorgeous is my makeup here.... even if i do say so myself?! ;-)
|
The @Stratforddarlings Charlotte Tilbury team did such a fab job and finally converted me to now actually loving a little eyeliner on my top and bottom waterlines.
|
This is something I never did before as I always thought it made your eyes look smaller but actually I think it really makes my eyes pop and I'm absolutely loving the rock chick vibes!!
|
|
On a poll on stories, most loved it too, what do you think??

Tailored Nutritional Plan With Zana Morris
|
I've been working on and off with Zana for the past couple of years, she helped me to get fit & fabulous for my 50th birthday and my holiday to Mexico by explaining the benefits of intermittent fasting and how it works an absolute dream for menopausal, middle aged women, like myself!
|
However I've been a little slack over the past 6 months and the inches have crept back on (I try not to weigh myself as I find it really demotivating & counter productive).
|
As well as trying to increase my gym sessions I also committed to walking 10K steps a day, which has definitely helped tone up my waist and legs. I'm going away next week so I wanted to do something a little more drastic.
|
So we had another zoom call and Zana put me on a 12 day low fat, sugar & carb programme which I've been sharing on my stories as a food picture diary for the past week or so. I have to admit I had a little blip whilst away so I re started and picked back up on the program this week and delighted that not only did I not gain but have actually also lost another pound this week!
|
Alongside working with Zana, I've also been taking her Strong Nutrition supplements, Amino Slim for fat burning, Magnesium & Chill Pill for normal balance - you can find out more about the products here
|
|
I had another call with Zana this morning and super excited to announce we will be doing a LIVE Q&A
|
over on my instagram once I'm back from my Girl Powder holiday next week.
|
|
Both of which I will share more on in next months newsletter.....Now if that's not a reason to come back for more, I don't know what is ;-)

If you've got this far, then thank you so much for taking the time to read.
|
Putting this together so quickly has been a steep learning curve, which I couldn't have done without the help of my partner Nick. I could have included so much more but thought I'd test out the waters and see how this first one goes down and save / add more exclusive Adventures In Fashionland content for next month.
As always, feel free to message me with any feedback and/or specific questions or queries you may want help with too.
