I'm delighted to be receiving the new French Tortue Summer season of designer clothes here into the Studio next week and equally to host my Big Birthday Birthday Tea next Friday 25/4/25 for Strathcarron Hospice. You can drop in any time from 5-8pm to see the clothes and raise funds for this amazing charity in Denny, Stirlingshire.

The clothes are finished in Aix-en -Provence in France and are elegant, feminine and practical. Most come in sizes 6-24 and you can view them here on the UK website www.tortue.uk/?ref=Elaine .

Are you confused with what to wear at this time of year with the vast unpredictability of our Scottish weather?! Last week it was hotter than Spain and this week it's like Winter!

If you would like your own personal Style Advice why not come out to the Studio for your personal 121 Style Session or if it's easier I can come out to your home and help you reinvent or ditch the clothes you already have.

Give me a call to discuss 07933 911522.

 Friday saw the launch of my French Captain Tortue clothing range SS24 with a fun Fashion Show here in the Stirling Studio.

These clothes are fabulous quality and the cut and feminine detail is amazing. It just reminded me that you can shop online but nothing beats being able to see, feel and try the clothes before you buy.

My models were great and we managed to raise £512.80 for Breast Cancer Now.

This is part of my fundraising efforts along with friend, client and model Claire Hall which culminates in June with a 100km Ultra Walk in the Lake District.

You can sponsor us  here  if you didn't manage to come along on Friday.

I will have this current range of clothes in the Studio until 30/4/24 if you want to come and view - no obligation to buy - sizes 6-24.

I hope you are well and getting your Chistmas preparations well under way before the big day!

Have you chosen your outfit yet?

There are many so sales that have already started on the High Street and I think at this late stage it's probably best not to order online in case they don't fit.

I'm a great believer in seeing, feeling and trying the clothes before you buy and I was delighted with this chocolate brown sparkly top that I picked up from Marks and Spencer for £35 yesterday.

Chocolate brown is a great alternative to black and can be much kinder to your skin tone too.

Getting the right colours is just as important as getting the right style and I think its often this combination that my clients struggle with.

Give me a call this week if you need some help.

There is is still time for me to organise Gift Vouchers before the big day - Personal Shopping, Style and Colour Analysis, Tortue French clothes - give me a call 07933 911522

It's really lovely to see the new styles and colours for Spring/Summer 23 emerging and there are a lot of pastels around, but what if you are middle aged and these are no longer flattering for your skin tone?

Pale colours can be draining on ageing skin, and the truth is you would probably look a lot younger and more vibrant in a bolder cobalt blue, energising orange or glamourous green.

I usually pick 2 or 3 main colours for you in my Style and Colour Analysis and match these with your best base colour which could be navy, black or charcoal and now that it is back in the shops, chocolate brown.

Chocolate is such a great alternative to black as it is less draining, more stylish, and it looks especially good with cream, tan and gold.

Call me now to book your own personal Style and Colour Analysis - you will always look and feel great and never make those shopping mistakes again!
