Star Jessie J : Glamour January 2015 Cover

Jessie J seems to be doing it all. Dominating both the US and UK music charts as a singer and songwriter, creating exciting plans for the future and working on being in love with current boyfriend R&B Singer Luke James.

Jessie J bares her bottom for Glamour in a pair of denim chaps. She did, however, leave something to the imagination in her shoot, unlike Kim K who went totally nude in her attempt to "break the internet".

In the interview, Jessie said she is proud to be an ambitious woman.

"You get one life." she said  "You can't be like, 'I haven't got a dick so I'll sit back and be quiet and let everyone else do the work.'  I'm good at what I do, so I should enjoy every aspect of it. .....I'm nearly 27 and I'm nowhere near done. I feel like I've only just got my foot in the door."

Asked about her plans for the future she said  "I want to do charity stuff, a line of perfume, another book.  I'd like to write an inspirational book, an acoustic album, have kids, and get married....I want to buy my mum and dad a house outright.... "

She dismissed accusations that she is "abandoning" the UK for America, she said "that's complete and utter ballbags." but said she is spending time there to further her career and should not be criticised for it "......but.. hope people can support that I'm having a moment in my career where another country is excited and I have to be there to make it happen."

The full interview is in the January issue of Glamour, is out Thursday December 4, 2014.

Jumpsuits A Party Staple

Ladies party outfit normally means dresses. But When it’s as Très Chic as a jumpsuit, who wouldn't love it.I can totally understand why fashionista's like Nicole Scherzinger and Solange Knowles, have been rocking this simple, yet stylish piece. I believe, the jumpsuit is one of those fashion staples that can be dressed up or down for any occasion.

If you’re looking for an alternative to the party dress,  a jumpsuit could be your saviour this party season. If you want to stand out from the crowd, then you can try a colour block jumpsuit or If you want the classic look, then you can’t go wrong with a black jumpsuit. And finish off your outfit with a pair of heels and a clutch.

Please take a look at my selection of jumpsuits below.

Christmas Jumpers

Christmas Jumpers, I think they are one of the best things about Christmas. With Christmas Jumper Day around the corner, I'll be wearing mine on National Christmas Jumper day in support of Save the Children on 12th December. If you’re new to the trend don’t worry. Be prepared by browsing my selection of Christmas jumpers for men and women pictured with reindeer's and snowflakes.

Black Friday Deals… Are you ready to shop?

Amazon introduced Black Friday Deals to the UK about four years ago, and as a nation, we’ve never looked back. Promotions have rocketed with more and more retailers getting involved.

So it’s definitely time to shop, but successful Black Friday shopping takes a bit of strategy. 


  1. First things first, know your dates! Black Friday is the 28th of November  (yes, it's on pay day)
  2. Starting early – This year, because of massive competition, some retailers (amazon) will be starting early. If you’ve got favourite shop, be prepared to start your shopping early.
  3. Take advantage of it – Christmas is coming and you need gifts. Use Black Friday promotions to get them early and save £££.
  4. Don’t get sidetracked – This is serious business! Make your list in advance and stick to it as much as you can.
  5. Do so safely! With all the craziness and so much hype over deals. If you’re in-stores, be sure zipped up your bags and or purse (keep all your belongings secure). And or if you're shopping on-line, make sure the site is secure (you should see a padlock symbol at the bottom of the page or top on Windows computers or laptops). 
  6. Gift receipts – You may think you bought the perfect gifts for your friends and or families, get a gift receipt – just in case.
Black Friday is here. 
         Take advantage of these deals while they’re hot.
