APRIL <strong>2017</strong> The clocks have been wound back and the darker, cooler and sometimes slightly gloomier days have set in. Just as well we have the Easter break to look forward to! With this in mind, our <strong>April</strong> issue of <strong>Style</strong> is an Easter celebration, and what better way to start than with a report on the Fabergé eggs from Russia. The Russian revolution and the mystery behind the missing Fabergé eggs has always intrigued me, so I enjoyed every moment of research on this topic. We provide something to inspire you with an interview on page 14 with ex-St Margaret’s students Gussie Cohen and Lucy Tothill. Their story of determination and forward-thinking in founding the Educating Girls Globally (E.G.G.) programme to support those in developing countries will leave you feeling proud to be a Cantabrian. In our living section, we look at mod cons that can make life that little bit easier, as well as add wow factor to any room. Our mood board, on the page 30, takes on the essence of autumn hues and will help you dive right into the season. Remember that Easter doesn’t need to be a total sugar fest. Our Junior page offers inspiration for some adorable non-edible Easter treats. If, despite your own best intentions, it all turns to custard, wellness coach Elly McGuinness has some fast-track tips on how to recover, should a chocolate binge occur. Launching into the new fashion season, we also bring you the first issue of <strong>Style</strong> Fashion Autumn/Winter. The fashion on these pages makes it impossible to feel gloomy as winter nears, as there are so many gorgeous garments hitting the racks. A personal favourite of mine are the rich caramel tones, so divine they are sure to lift any winter blues. Happy Easter and enjoy this issue of <strong>Style</strong>.
