Ah the humble bucket hat. It's been one of those pieces that has gone in and out of fashion for almost 60 years, and has become a far cry from it's original use, which was to protect farmers and fisherman from the elements. It may conjur up images of Kevin & Perry for some, or old Florida-based men playing shuffleboard in the sun for others, but one thing's for sure - it's back, and it doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon. Bucket hats weren't always used as a sartorial talking point. Way back in the very early 1900s, the bucket hat was created as a lightweight, easy to carry (and fold up into a pocket) form...
Finding ways to give your style a little boost doesn't have to involve a buying a whole new wardrobe or completely changing your look. It can be as simple as being a little bit braver with your colour combinations, braving a print you've always shied away from, or wearing something typically evening-appropriate during the day. Sometimes it can feel a bit daunting to mix up your sartorial choices and we tend to always fall back into the same habits and fashion choices that we always make because we know they make us feel safe and comfortable.

Last week we spoke about how different colours impact your mood overall, but we wanted to give you...
Ever wondered why wearing certain colours can have you feeling some type of way, or why it is that we associate black with tortured artists and red with sex?

Want to know how to layer like a pro and make the most of your wardrobe at the same time? Then you’ve came to the right place. Most people seem to reserve layering for the transition from Summer to Autumn, but not only is it ideal for Winter to Spring but it’s also a handy skill to have all year round – especially if, like us, you’re in the UK where you can need thermals one day and a pair of shorts the next.
