Lifestyled by Paula Joye

I know, I know it wasn’t colour. This look would have been more appropriate for Derby Day but I’ve never been one for rules. At the race track I like to feel comfortable and look classic (with a fashion edge). With a heavy work schedule and shonky looking skies – this outfit ticked all my READ MORE…

Packing for a recent trip to Dubai had me stumped. I wanted long and light and the only long frocks I own that match those adjectives have been to Award Shows. I’m just not a maxi dress. I am a short skirt. So we had a problem… When I travel I tend to pack in READ MORE…

This morning I was having an Yves moment because I’m reading The Private World of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Berge - so I reached for a pussy bow shirt. Somehow I managed to derail the look and ended up looking more Adam Ant than Paris 1978. Perhaps it’s the shoes? They’re much lower than my usual READ MORE…

I love a limited edition anything. The Fashion Gallery eBay Designer T-shirt Partnership is a one-off, while stocks last collaboration with designers Alex Perry, Bec & Bridge, Camilla Franks, Michael Lo Sordo and  Lisa Ho customising the simple white t-shirt.

Super versatile – the shoes you team with them dictates how and where they work. I prefer a little bit chunky for day and a pointy toe black pump (teamed with READ MORE…

Last night Paspaley launched their Odyssey Collection. The event called for classic so I opted for a camellia and pearls (on my shoes). This outfit was thrown together in under 20 minutes (my hair is all the proof you need!) and was a pleasant surprise – sometimes the rushed ones are. I haven’t worn the top in READ MORE…

I’ve been on red carpet watch today. Emmy’s wrap up (read it here). That requires three things: 1) Multiple coffees 2) Fast broadband 3) Sequins I tried to drink the coffee and wear the sequins but they may have at one point merged… The Jumper. The irony of vampire fangs and sequins was not lost READ MORE…
