This shirt is described as “chambray”, but looks and feels much more like denim. It’s fairly tailored and runs true to size. I love the wash, snap-buttons and lightweight handle of the fabric, which is why it was ultimately the denim shirt that made it into my wardrobe. The breast pockets are positioned high enough so that they look fine on a larger bustline too. Thank you Gap for making a fabulous product!

This style is a tunic for some and a dress for others. It’s cute, casual and looks great unbelted too. Swapping out the self fabric belt for a belt of your choice will also work. The sleeves turn up with adorable tab button detailing, so don’t think that you’re married to three quarter length sleeves. Perfect over leggings with flats or heels and just as fab over black cigarette pants.

Casual wedge sandals like these do not date and are a versatile look for most Summer wardrobes. This style is comfortable on the foot and sweet in design. The inserted elastic on the soft leather ankle strap provides extra comfort as you stride so no rubbing. It’s available in raspberry, chocolate, black, bronze and tan. The raspberry is extra yummy.

What a comfortable sandal! And fun colours too. The broader straps are soft and supple and the chunky heel is stable and modern. Fab quality and very cushioning. I vote orange or steel blue. Runs true to size.

These are the most comfortable cage heels I’ve ever had on my feet. Patent leather is not usually soft, but these patent leather straps are remarkably soft. Fab with hose in Autumn and Winter and great barelegged in Spring and Summer. They are available in black, chocolate and burgundy and all shades are equally pretty. Runs true to size.

This is the prettiest wedge sandal I’ve seen so far this season and it looks so elegant on the foot. Soft supple leather and broad straps make for a very comfortable foot casing, but you’ll have to arch your foot because of the heel. If you like high heels, be sure to try this sandal. It’s nice in black but sublime in stone.

The “Sonatina” is still the best all round flattering one piece bathing costume available. I’ve had it on curvy hourglasses and athletic rectangles and the fit is very flattering – year after year. Just brilliant. The breast cups keep the bust line in place, while the ruching helps camouflage extra mid riff bits. The plunging neckline is alluring and elongating while the back is low, but not too low. Pop on a wrap, straw hat, thong sandals and you’re ready for a comfortable day by the pool or beach.

If you’re looking for a classic, comfortable and slightly retro low heeled pump, give this style a try. It’s great under dress slacks or jeans and just as fab with skirts and dresses. If you’re looking for cute, hard-to-find ink blue shoes, you’ve found them! They come in red, black and brown too.

As I write this they are on sale for $72.00.

Totally divine and flattering. A great knee-length walk short in soft stretch denim with a reasonable length rise. Classic or funky depending on what you pair with it.  Available in white too.

Stunning top. Look at the way those chevron stripes draw the eye in towards the waist. So flattering. And the drape! It’s bold but very cool, and ever so slightly retro. Looks fab over a pencil skirt too.
