I LOVED the original series. Love, love, loved it: happy nostalgia of sitting on a bean bag, drinking tizer watching plans come together via the medium of a black van, duct tape and lots of explosions that miraculously left everyone unharmed. So, when the ... http://styleclimate.com/?p=124 This is such a brilliant idea, for someone with a wardrobe full of dresses worn just once, the idea of borrowing one for the occasion which I could never afford to buy... it is so clever.  I LOVE it.  Can't wait for the next wedding/summer party/black tie party! http://styleclimate.com/?p=121 Love this Zara look, to paraphrase Tyra Banks, 'H2T'... or head to toe for those not quite so obsessed with America's next top model.  Great hair, great eyes, great silhouette http://styleclimate.com/?p=117 Temptation is overwhelming at Banana Republic with the new-for-spring-2010 blues collection.  Denim dresses, neat layering and calm colouring add up to a very clean, fresh look.  Good thing it's not for sale online, otherwise my restraint would be seriously tested! http://styleclimate.com/?p=106 So, my 2010 challenge mentions nothing about beauty buys.  As such I have already spent several hours agonising over the colour charts at MAC - they have the lushest shades.  I think though that for January I will be focusing on getting my skin into shape and trying to mitigate ... http://styleclimate.com/?p=100 The latest fashion magazines have landed with the resounding thump of spring on my doormat in the last couple of weeks.  It seems that London, certainly the fashion part of it, has had it with winter and is ready to move on - with silky sorbet colours filling the catwalk.  ... http://styleclimate.com/?p=97 At lunchtime, I was strolling around the National Portrait Gallery... well, the shop at least... and just as I was leaving I spotted sparkly things.  Drawn magpie-like to the display, ready to be disappointed by the usual tat that is on offer in museums, I was surprised by some very ... http://styleclimate.com/?p=93 The Outnet.com has just had a delivery from iconic design house Halston.  Subtle shades of mink, mushroom and dove grey as well as contrasting citrus in silk, cashmere and leather make this addition to the cut-price designer off-shoot of net-a-porter.com a total lust-have.  Love, love, love. http://styleclimate.com/?p=90 Today I am starting my 2010 challenge, which is not to buy any clothes for 12 months.  I have been thinking about it throughout December and have come up with a couple of caveats to be realistic.  So, there are a couple of things that I can buy including a ... http://styleclimate.com/?p=77
