Burberry Blankets

Who'd have thought the humble plaid blanket would become the must-have trans-seasonal item of 2014? OK, so it's not quite so humble when it's by Burberry, woven from Scottish cashmere and comes monogramed with your initials - but it still makes for a good picnic blanket. Last seen on Clint Eastwood, you're now more likely to spot the likes of Cara Delevingne and Olivia Palermo sporting this style... but will you be next?

Gran Glam

Lady GaGa has become the latest celeb to try out the trend for grey hair - posing on the cover of Vanity Fair with little more than swathes of silvery grey locks to preserve her modesty. While most women dread the onset of grey, the likes of Kate Moss and Kelly Osbourne have also chosen to embrace the gran glam look.I have to admit, it's not something I'm eager to try out myself - it is definitely a look best left to blondes.

However, gran glam isn't just limited to grey hair - fashion is also high on the agenda. Pair a cosy knit with a floral tea dress, not forgetting a string of pearls, for a ladylike take on the look.
