There is very little that is normal about our present situation. We have a new front line of workers who never expected to be emergency providers, people laid off and furloughed from previously steady jobs, and a whole host of people who suddenly find themselves working from home. If you’re not commuting, not travelling from A to B (and to C, and then to D etc), and unable to go out in the evenings and weekend to do very much, you’re probably finding you have a lot of extra time on your hands. Though it is often phrased as “working from home”, in reality you’re stuck at home, trying to work. In the hope that it might be helpful, we...

Bold, bright colours, when used in the right way, can be immensely powerful, and you can project your personal style successfully whilst still feeling like you are dressed for the occasion. Accessories can be your key to this, used to provide...
