Chuggers (Charity Muggers) seem to be everywhere and the adept traveller can utilise the abundance of free newspapers rolled up to keep them at bay. Quite why we find them so annoying is pretty clear, they always seem to be there when we’re busy.

Thankfully you can now do your bit for the planet and keep to your schedule. The Aspinall Foundation have launched a prepaid debit card to help in their efforts to save the Western Lowland Gorilla, a critically endangered species. You can buy one for yourself and shop till you drop with a clear conscience or give it instead of cash to someone else. Can you say no to something this photogenic ?

New Jeans for Fall

 This September why not try something new.

How about a new part of jeans.

A girl can never have enough jeans and it is sometimes hard to find the perfect pair.

But this September Harrods is launching the first collection of GirlsMustHave jeans by former model Alexandra Classen.

Classen decided that as a jeans addict herself she wanted to design her own collection that filled all her demands when looking for the perfect pair.        

This new collection distinguished it’s self by the workmanship, elaborate manufacturing process and the various different washes. All made in Italy this debut collection is sexy but comfortable and elegant.  

Why not try the popular ‘Daria’ a skinny20 jean, rounded at end and opening at back is the jean of the moment.

Or the “Karolina”, a sleek boot cut, trouser style gives a woman a simplified silhouette.
