Lynne McCrossan: Catriona’s got the style to Marks and Sparkle
We are able to pull off soft and feminine while staying wildly edgy.
Our city’s very own Shirley Manson, of Garbage fame, is the poster child for what I speak of. She looks fabulous but you know there is a brain in her head. Very refreshing.
But there is a new generation of sassy starlets in town.

Twelve people have been selected to go up for a public online vote to clinch the coveted prize and Leith’s very own Ms Strachan is the solo Scottish entry.
She was whisked down to London last week for a spot of filming and to meet her competition rivals. En route she was gifted a video camera to capture her trip and was hooked on the whole video blogging process.
Now here is where you, her fellow Edinburgers, come into the equation. We must get behind our Kitty Cat to crown her the face of M&S TV.
This girl is cut from the same cool school as Shirley. Stylish and savvy but someone you’d be happy to stare at on the silver screen. So get voting. www.marksandspencer.com.

More metallic has been on show during previews for the high street’s spring/summer collections. Karen Millen has a corker of a dress coming out, complete with huge pussy cat bow in next year’s hottest shiny silver shade.
