Daniel Craig has a lot to answer for. Thanks to the now infamous 30 second scene in Casino Royal where 007 emerges from the sea in the shortest of short blue trunks, with bulging muscles, toned within an inch of his life. He has single-handedly raised the bar of female expectations about the male physique. Ronaldo and Beckham

Harvey Nichols Dundrum presented their spring summer offerings with a fabulous concept fashion show styled and produced by Paula Hughes on Thursday last.
The scene was set when invited guests were ushered, champagne in hand, to a warehouse-style venue hidden in the basement of the store. Ultra-violet lighting, a paint splattered run-way and Auguste-faced clowns (aptly named Hilarious Hank!) provided the setting for a multicoloured circus concept show. Designs by Sonia Rykiel, D&G, Vivienne Westwood, See by Chloe, and Alexander Mc Queen strutted down the catwalk. My favourites came in the form of Amanda Wakeley, Philip Lim and the queen of digital prints Mary Katrantzou.
Kudos to the team at Harvey Nic’s who didn’t ignore the men in the audience and presented some pretty slick menswear looks from Diesel, Dsquared2, D&G and the super cool ‘Elvis Jesus emerald Miami Vice’ t-shirt exclusive to Harvey Nichols.

It’s practically the weekend so time to indulge in all things naughty (namely clothes & food in my case!). Like fashion, food is one of life’s guilty little pleasures. That’s why I always like to hear good news about the food I love being healthy in oh so many ways. Chillis are one my culinary passions, there’s not much I don’t eat without a healthy dose added to the mix. It appears I’m not alone -stats show how a staggering 98% of us now add spice to our food on a regular basis.
So because it’s Friday and time for a little randomness, here’s some fabulous chilli facts from the lovely peeps at Nando’s (yum!) as part of the New National Chilli Week.
· Contrary to popular opinion, it’s not the seeds that are the hottest part of a chilli, but the white pith that surrounds them and runs in thick veins through the pod

Fat Face recently celebrated the opening of their fifth store in Ireland in the Dundrum Town Centre. I have to be honest, as a store I find it can be a bit hit and miss but their latest collection for Winter has surprised me and features some really nice active lifestyle clothing for men and women.
Doing what they do best, the menswear collection is cool with stylish details for outdoor types including traditional chunky buttons and contrast knit panels along side plaid check shirts. Luxury leather is also offered in jackets.
