You've ticked off everyone  on your present shopping list this Black Friday , but today is all about you.

The Princess of Wales wasn't taking any risks yesterday as she attended the official state visit of the Emir of Qatar and his wife to the UK - her first since finishing chemotherapy for cancer.

For the traditional Christmas Day service, this came in the form of Kate's colour choice: a perfectly yuletide forest green with a flash of equally festive tartan.

January is looking up. Why? The return of the hit BBC series The Traitors - obviously. And we're not only looking forward to the backstabbing, plot-twisting, thrill-a-minute race to a cash prize...

Erdem reimagined florals in va-va-voom, form-fitting separates and razor-sharp tailoring for London Fashion Week last night.

Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy's costume designer, Molly Emma Rowe, headed to Great British brands to update our fifty-something heroine's wardrobe for this fourth and final film.

We all have that one dream item we'd buy if we received an unexpected windfall. First on my list if I win the lottery? A Gucci Bamboo. Read on for our guide to the best brands, favoured by royalty.

Fashion. It's nothing if not cyclical. But do not be lulled into a false sense of security when I say florals are back.
