Whoo hoo! Cult beauty brand Charlotte Tilbury is heading to our neck of the woods later on this month. No longer will we have to play internet shopping roulette or traipse out of county to brush, gloss and swipe.

It’s all a bit hush hush at the mo but apparently the doors are due to open at a standalone Southampton store in the city centre within the next few weeks.

Too much loveliness to contemplate at Charlotte Tilbury this season, but the fashion eds are going particularly crazy for the Eyes To Mesmerise creme eyeshadow.

What’s that you say? You want more new openings? Your wish is my command!

Check out Kate Spade‘s outlet store in Portsmouth’s Gunwharf Quays, a recent August addition. Denim coolcats 7 For All Mankind (my favourite jeans brand) also moved in this September. And (shhhh) my secret sources tell me that American Vintage, may also be winging its way to the south coast. Selling top quality wardrobe basics, race you to the till.
