Has it rained every Sunday this month?...
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 26/05/2008
Has it rained every Sunday this month?. DB has decided that we're going to share his parent’s little cottage on the Scilly Isles for a week in June, which of course will involve some quite speedy wardrobe surgery!!!  A lot of the frocks I've bought will do for our later trip to dear old Sardinia in August - but I can't really see myself in a billowing maxi-dress as we lurk on a cliff waiting for the Madeiran storm-petrel to fly in and start to nest! Similarly, I'm saving the crisp whites for July - so all I can say is thank GOODNESS for this season's staple, the fitted mini jacket.

A gallery, a park and a kite...
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 20/05/2008
Isn't it amazing how the weather gets us all excited? As I write today I'm gazing out of my window (Carrie style!) onto a windy and rainy Putney High Street. Last weekend seems like a distant dream!
 
Now with my fair skin, here's a Corinne Top Tip. If you want to eschew (bless you!!!!) the hot sun, one of my favourite tricks is to go to an art gallery. They are literally empty on a very sunny weekend, and also cool and fresh as well. Saturday was great, so after a late breakfast and croissants, I dropped DB off for practice, grabbed Portia and off we headed to the Tate - the original one - and caught my 'discovery' Peter Doig. His divine coloured canva ...

Sex and Frocks in the City!
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 13/05/2008

Well as my tickets to the premiere seemed to get lost in the post (again!) I'll just have to pop to the Putney Odeon with the girls....and I think you know the awesome film that I'm talking about - I've been waiting literally years it seems for the next instalment of Sex and the City! The real swiz is that the film isn’t released for another 2 weeks but I’ve already pre-booked my tickets online! So, in order to will the weeks away, here is my quick game we've been playing in the office of what they SHOULD have worn to the premiere!

Well Samantha could carry this stunning

Three weddings and a day at the races!
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 08/05/2008
I have had lots of emails already this season for dresses to wear to weddings. Last November Rachel went on the hunt perfect frocks for the summer season. Her brief was to find classic shapes with a twist, key colours and very wearable styles which you won’t see every guest in! Of course with the big sporting fixtures coming up, these dresses are perfect too for a day at the races!

Happy Birthday Frock!
Rachel's Blog By Rachel on 04/05/2008
This Thursday saw the Frock models strutting their stuff on the catwalk, show-casing of the summer collection at the celebration of Frock’s 1st birthday. Toni & Guy Farnham created beautiful hairstyles for the show and Benefit cosmetics came to help style the models. All of us in the Frock office are incredibly excited as Benefit are opening one of their gorgeous boutiques in Farnham later this summer!
 
The show opened with the butt ...

Create maximum impact in this season's maxi!
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 21/04/2008

It’s my favourite time of the month, when I choose a customer's question!

Suzie lives right in the middle of Norwich, where she works for a busy solicitors practice. She's been wearing Frock frocks for 6 months now, but has never been able to take the plunge with a maxi dress. She wonders if there are any tips I can give her.

Well, thanks for dropping me a line Su - having spent most of last summer literally living in them, I'm happy to say the maxi is definitely on-trend for this summer as well - only this time they'll be sunshine too - she said touching wood like mad!! It's really exciting Suzie a ...

An apple a day...
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 14/04/2008
We were all having a really animated discussion last week in this dinky new Wine Bar in Weybridge…all about green. It's been officially on-trend now for 2 months, and I have to say that I came clean; I cannot wear bright apple green - the absolute shame. Not in cotton, not as a coat, and not even as a silk dress (unless I trowel on the foundation!).
 
You'll know that bright apple green - just a degree brighter than the traffic light and with a touch of yellow. But what's a girl to do? The colour looks great in the shops - strong ...

March: Frocks 3, shoes 2, leather jackets 1
Corinne's Blog By Corinne on 06/04/2008
Do you remember last year's Boat race? Me on telly? DB with his injuries? Well no excuses last week and he was lucky enough to be able to escort me! Now it's SO smashing to live in Putney, almost like being by the sea - but without the horrid wind!
 
This year DB had a buddy in the Cambridge boat, Jamie (oh dear!!!!) and we were going to have a spot of late lunch with his girlfriend Faye, as we knew that he would be rather tied up for the afternoon one way or the other!!! The eternal problem for me was what to wear? - it's always SO tricky ...

The new summer collection from Fever...online soon!
Rachel's Blog By Rachel on 30/03/2008

Surely we must be in for some sun soon! And on the pretext of that we at Frock are thinking about the imminent summer 'season'. Corinne is dutifully planning her trip to Ladies' Day at Royal Ascot which involves quizzing me on what is coming in over the next few months in order to find her perfect frock! Luckily for Corinne and for all our customers, I have bought from several brands for this summer which deliver thoughout the season, so we have new dresses arriving all the time. Fever, one of our wonderful British labels has a stunning collection in juicy bright colours. It is coming in any day now so do keep an eye out. I think Corinne has pre-ordered her 'Loire' dress in green seen recently on Kara Tointon (the lovely Dawn in Eastenders)...no doubt she will cause DB to have a Fever in this pretty little number!

Rachel's Blog By Rachel on 27/03/2008
As big fans of Facebook…we were very excited to see that one of our favourite suppliers Fred Sun (think Parisian chic and Breakfast at Tiffany's) is holding a competition for Miss Fredsun Facebook 2008.
