It’s a Leap year! This is great. Well not that great for working types, basically you have to work one more day until payday that you usually wouldn’t have to. Bah humbug. But there is another think that the Leap Year brings up – female marriage proposal. While in the enlightened 21st Century woman ‘can’ propose to men, it is unlikely many do so. But on the Leap year day they are ‘officially’ allowed to.
The story is that the female St Bridget complained to St Patrick (he of the patron saint and Guinness variety) that woman had to wait so long for men to propose (does anything ever change?!) so he granted them the right to propose on this one day every four years – I think old Bridget was fobbed off there…read more about Leap Year Proposals

Breakfast can be so dull sometimes. A dry piece of toast, a stodgy bowl of cereal, a badly made cup of tea – it’s no wonder we hate mornings so much. But on one of my many wanderings around the internet I came across some brilliant gadgets for making breakfast a lot more fun…read more about Make Breakfast Less Boring

Lingerie Review – The Sexy New Lingerie Collection For Pregnant Mommas
Lingerie experts www.miodestino.co.uk bring the sexiest maternity lingerie ever to the UK.
The collection began then two NZ designers, Lisa Ebbing and Angela Crosbie, were unable to find maternity lingerie that made them feel like the sassy, cheeky, incredible women they are.
They created a range that would empower pregnant women and make them to feel gorgeous all the way through pregnancy and beyond. Hotmilk has reinvented and redefined maternity lingerie, creating a collection that is a little bit naughty, a little bit daring, offering a mix of humour and sensuality but with the focus firmly on comfort as well as style.
The bras are ideal for breast-feeding, with no restrictive underwire, soft comfy cotton linings and no-fuss one handed maternity clips. Wider bra straps, great coverage and support and 6 rows of hooks on the back ensure complete comfort, while the sassy designs are made to flatter and fit.
With bold images that created a sensation in Australia and NZ, and a commitment to the…read more about HOTmilk Maternity Lingerie

Swimwear: where underwear meets outerwear
With the anticipated sunny days of March in sight we gradually enter spring and mood and colours are getting brighter. Dark coats and winter boots are going to be packed away soon.
Too early to think of bikinis? Well I think it’s the best moment to do so.
I believe women should think of swimwear as relaxed, stylish, comfortable and exclusive lingerie, who likes indifferent swimwear after all? Spend some time now to have a look at designers’ swimwear of MioDestino and let your winter mood lighten up!
It’s true, summer makes us more aware of our body but whatever are your concerns a relaxed attitude about revealing your body is always important under the bright sunshine of a beach of Mykonos, Rhodes, Kos or Crete. So if we’ve seen enough dark tones and undefined lines in swimwear in the past in the Greek islands it seems things are getting better year after year.
Bikinis are always in fashion and can be very smartly combined with a camisole or a mini wrap as in these 2008 collections from…read more about Swimwear at Mio Destino

Shakira is a lovely girl. Easy on the eye, got the sexy South American thing going on, not the worst singing voice in the world…and now she has decided to sell all her clothes to raise money to build a school in her home country of Columbia.
And one fan of hers (I am going out on a limb and guessing they are male) paid £1,500 for one of her bras. I suppose it’s as close as he is going to get…
But it’s an intriguing, if slightly sordid, idea. Get attractive females from around the world to sell their underwear / lingerie and let the bids roll in. It could work for women too…read more about Shakira and selling underwear

Dame Vivienne Westwood is back!
Yes she’s back! Dame Vivienne Westwood made her return to London, after a ten year absence, in spectacular style. As one of the most anticipated shows of the week, there was literally a rugby scrum to get in (even having a ticket doesn’t necessarily mean you’re guaranteed a place!). And this was all for her secondary line, Red Label. Maybe one day Ms Westwood will deem London cool enough to show her main collection here again.
With an (almost) A-list front row…read more about London Fashion Week
