The new Stacey Duguid interview in The Times is a good read!
For anyone who doesn’t have a subscription (hopefully it’s all in order!)

Interesting it doesn’t gloss over the affair she had which broke up her marriage and getting sacked from Harrods

I love how honest she is. I’d take Stacey over Pandora ANY day
Pandora’s honesty: her excuse for not getting her substacks out on time was because she has ‘no childcare’ over the summer holidays. Just like any other regular working Mum! But looks like she’s in Capri without the 3 of them during the last week of school holidays, when most parents are tearing their hair out. I could be wrong, but I doubt it!
 
Agree I think Stacey is great. Her honesty shines through and that is what makes her likeable. It's when these people are dishonest that we come here in our droves - cf Jack Monroe, Liz Fraser, Mother of Daughters whatever her name was.
 
The neckline of the dress is so unflattering on her - and those shoes just don't work with the dress as all. She could have added a necklace to balance the neckline out, but yeah - I guess she's just clueless when it comes to style.
 
She’s tall is the issue and not willowy thin. That is NOT meant in a perjorative way, she has a lovely figure. But she wants to look like a 60s ingenue and you just can’t be so… statuesque for that look. The pixie boots and high neckline would work better on someone 5’2 and super skinny. Again I’m not saying skinny as a positive thing, I’m just stating facts :)
 
Dolly’s style is so bad. She’s utterly clueless about what looks good and how to pull an outfit together.

I agree she is SO bad at clothes. She has no idea how to put an outfit together or what looks good. I’m all for people wearing whatever they like and feel good in but I cringe whenever she talks about being ‘into clothes’ because it’s one thing to wear ‘unflattering’ clothes because you like them but it’s another to have no sense of proportion or cohesion and still thinking you’re a fashion girlie.

She wants a sixties ‘look’ that doesn’t suit her (lovely) figure to be honest. The sixties look is Twiggy, gamine with no tits :)
