Everyone seemed to love a peak into my summer wardrobe so much that I thought you might enjoy my new video on how I update a lot of my old winter clothes with accessories such as retro gloves, matching sunnies & the odd new headscarf.  All done on a budget, of course! 

I had a photo shoot last week to update my publicity pics. I really wanted to wear this old but still much loved dress fromRiver Island, but didn't have an exciting head scarf to style it up - till Age of Reason Studios, very kindly sent me one to try out. Thrilled that it arrived in time for the shoot and even more thrilled with the quality and colours of this scarf. This is definitely going to Australia with me as it's big enough to double up as a sarong.

I have tried out a Jamie Oliver Superfoods recipe with an Alternative Ageing vegetarian twist, giving you a meal that's chock full of health benefits, filling, low calorie & really warming as winter knocks at our door!  It's also suitable for vegans, if you eliminate the fish sauce from the ingredients, or buy a substitute. 

I decided to Go Sober for October for the second time this year in October . Not because I am a serious boozer, anyone who knows me can vouch for what a light weight I am, but because I can’t remember the last time I gave up drinking alcohol for any length of time. (Apart from a four week detox last year in Australia). 

Every couple of months, my oldest school friend Dalia and I love to fit in a little day trip to somewhere we haven't been before.  So I suggested Hastings as, despite it only being 'down the road' from Brighton, I haven't visited this little fishing port for decades and she had never been.

I am so crap at editing videos, I really must practise and get to grips with this!

Please let me know what you do to dress up your hair and outfits, I always love to hear from you. And let me know what you would like to see on any future videos. I'm building up to one a week!
