New Look orange dress as seen on Gok

Well Gok did a fantastic job on this orange dress from New Look by moving the bow over the shoulder and adding black detail around the trim.  It’s on the website for £28 and Gok had it down as £20, not sure if that’s his mistake or whether it’s more expensive on the web.  Bows are [...]

Per Una tomato red silk skirt. Don’t be fooled by the naff photo, this skirt is stunning.

Ok, you may look at this skirt and think oh my god, that’s dull, middle of the road and boring.  But this is where the internet or internet retailers let themselves down.  I visited my local Marks & Spencer today, and this was one of the first things I saw on entering the store and [...]

Stunning white kaftan by Elizabeth Hurley

This stunning Georgie Kaftan by Elizabeth Hurley is definately an investment piece at £125, but it’s more versatile than your average kaftan which is normally a huge piece of colourful material with not a lot of shape.  The sweet grandad collar means that it does the job of protecting your neck in the sun whilst [...]

Red tartan suit from Topshop as seen on Gok’s Fashion Fix

As much as I love Gok, he does mess with clothes when there is just no need.  This is a great suit from Topshop and certainly didn’t need any bows or embellishments.  Team with some gorgeous shoes and a bag and you’ve got yourself a great work suit that isn’t black like all the designers [...]
