Good or Bad?

There seems to be a new hair trend emerging. Championed by Alexa Chung, more and more people are wearing their hair with dark roots and light ends. It is a look I sported around age 16, but that was more due to an aversion to hairdressers than being in vogue, and it has made me [...]


Minted

What’s the big spring colour trend for makeup? Mint green nails!
