Colour Trends: Be on trend with this season's colours, avoid those which make the skin look sallow and are not compatible with skin tone and can be draining and aging such as pastel shades. Eye color is usually a good guide for what suits you. Choose bolder and more sophisticated shades like this season's Rococco Red, Snorkel Blue, Gold and Olive.

Does She or Doesn’t She

Do you remember that Clairol advertisement? "Does she or doesn't she? Only her hairdresser knows for sure!" If you remember that, chances are good that you're old enough to have considered the dilemma of whether to dye your hair or let it go naturally gray. (And, if you are someone who is over 50 and only has a handful of gray hairs then count yourself lucky! You're off the hook from making this decision (and you just saved countless dollars and hours at the hairdresser!))
I've known women (and men (my youngest brother, for one)) who have started graying in their late teens or early 20's, and I know women (my partner, actually) who even in their mid-fifties and beyond only have a smattering of grays most of which are nearly imperceptible. And, then I have many clients and friends who ask me regularly over months or years if it is time to start coloring their hair (they trust me to tell them). (I'm a big proponent of keeping your natural hair color as long as possible and sometimes forever.)

Paris Fashion Week Spring 2011 Collections and The New British Fashion Dictionar

The Spring 2011 ready-to-wear collections are well and truly underway here in Paris during one of the most exciting times of the year. Not only is Autumn my favourite time of year but it is also Paris Fashion Week, a most exciting, awe inspiring time to be in Paris.
The streets are filled with fashionistas and the style and elegance that they bring to the city, it feels although there are camera crews on every corner of Paris and everyone is dressed in their Sunday best perhaps hoping to inspire the designers who have flocked here.
The thought that Jean-Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood and TheDressingGown.com are all sharing the same city at the exact same time is almost unbearable. No sightings as of yet but we will keep you informed!
