Crochet Lace Dress from Apricot in aid of Ovarian Cancer Charity Ovacome

March is ovarian cancer month and, to support this, Apricot has teamed up with ovarian cancer charity, Ovacome and are selling a fabulous dress in the charity's colour of teal.

The dress is lined and structured, to give an amazing fit.  The pattern detail, with circular crochet lace and pleats is divine.  And the colour is gorgeous.  It can be worn to the office with a blazer and courts or dressed up with accessories and killer heels for an evening out.  It's £35 and comes in sizes 8 to 16 and, with all profits from sales of this dress going to Ovacome, it is so worth it.
There is also a canvas tote bag available for just £2, again, with all profits going to the charity.  So do think about supporting this cause and gaining a fab dress and bag!  It's win/win for everyone!

Everyday Leather Shopper Bag from Boden

I'm still loving that candy pink that's on trend this season and I've found some gorgeous ways to embrace this style subtlety on the Boden website - with a discount!  The code U008 will work to get 20% off selected items, plus free delivery and returns.

First, there's this everyday leather shopper bag.  It's a perfect size, a perfect colour and with neat compartments to store all one's bits and pieces.  Originally £110, it's currently £88 and an easy way to wear pink with style.
And why not team it with this card holder? Originally £15, it's just £12 and a perfect way to store one's cards and passes.
Both items also come in green, blue and silver.

Fantastic Footwear: Charlotte Olympia Black Velvet "Kitty" Slipper Flats from Profile Fashion


Charlotte Olympia's kitty cat flat slippers have become a coveted fashion piece since 2011.  They have been spotted on all sorts of celebs - Anne Hathaway, BeyoncĂ©, Kirsten Dunst, Taylor Swift and that devoted follower of fashion Alexa Chung.  My favourite are these black velvet, embroidered with gold ones with a gilded heel which will go with anything and will work for day or night.  They are also available in a sumptuous red velvet.

As these are designer shoes, they are a pretty standard price across the web at £465.  But at Profile Fashion, until the end of the month, customers can receive a 5% discount just by signing up to the newsletter  which brings them down to £441.75.  Still pricey, but definitely an investment piece that will last and look fab.
