How to stop worrying

Thu, Jan 03, 2013

Most of us worry. We worry about major issues such as our health, children, ageing parents, or making ends meet or about minor matters, such as waking up early for work in the morning, getting to the shops before closing time or beating rush hour traffic.

All that glitters

Thu, Dec 13, 2012

In 2001, Mariah Carey was in an awful film called Glitter. Now, thankfully, the must-have party trend for this year (of glitter and all things sparkly), is a lot better than the film, which I believe was not exactly a success at the box office. Adding a hint of shine here and there to your outfit will never be easier as the high street shops and boutiques embrace this look with open arms, and let’s be honest, our eyes tend to be drawn to something shiny. Taking inspiration from a floor length Dolce and Gabbana dress, sequins are really flattering to wear, shorts and minis are the key statement piece and naturally shoes and accessories are where we can have a little fun.

November is upon us and doing a wardrobe clear out is not just limited to spring. This week I took part in a great initiative called Fashion Fall Out, held in Dublin where the country’s most recognised faces in fashion and independent boutiques brought some pre-owned (and some new) pieces for a very exciting public sale. From vintage to designer bargains, there was something for everyone on offer. The rail sale idea is gaining momentum across the country and in the times we are in, the benefits are limitless. The seller makes some money and the buyer can find the most wonderful fashion treasures.

Treating arthritis with Chinese medicine

Thu, Nov 08, 2012

A number of recent scientific studies have found evidence of the effectiveness of acupuncture and Chinese medicine in the treatment of arthritis. These natural therapies may provide pain relief and improve function for people with arthritis.

In Western medicine arthritis is defined as an inflammatory condition of the joints that is characterised by pain, swelling, heat, redness, and limitation of movement. However, in Chinese medicine, arthritis is not just inflammation and heat. For example, it can be caused by a prior invasion of coldness that damaged the body, causing obstruction in the natural flow of both chi and blood which then manifests as heat. So treatment includes both the cause and manifestation of the disease.

Cover up

Thu, Nov 01, 2012

I have not bought a winter coat yet and I have been on the lookout for a timeless piece, in a classic shape to work with my entire wardrobe. Meeting these requirements is not exactly easy — it needs to be the right length for my height, be cut in a way that flatters my shape and in a colour that is versatile. Thankfully, there are plenty to choose from this year, and I really do like this military trend which brands such as Marks and Spencer are focusing on this season with a stellar range of coats for all shapes and sizes.
