They've got killer heels and harmonies to match – this month we meet the fabulous Miss Fortunes.

The glamorous, vintage vocal trio from Wolverhampton are recreating all the nostalgia of a bygone era with their retro hits. Dressed in polka dot halter necks and wearing red lippy, the friends are bringing forties flair to events around the region.

We chat to them about their passion for the era, enthusiasm for entertaining and why dressing up is such fun.

From glam to oh so cute. We take a walk in the park with pint-sized pooch Charlie who is the face of a new brand of healthy dog teas and treats. He was picked from hundreds of entries in a national competition run by Woof and Brew – and when you see his picture you'll see just why the judges found him irresistible.

His Wolverhampton owner Joy Blakeman also tells us how cheeky Charlie is bringing joy to children in refuges as a Pets As Therapy dog.

It's February and love is certainly in the air. West End star Sophie Evans, who played Dorothy in Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical The Wizard of Oz, tells us her rugby player boyfriend is a romantic at heart. But she won't be snuggling up with him for Valentine's as the singer is performing movie classics at the Grand Theatre along with Britain's Got Talent finalists Richard and Adam.

Fall in love with our fashion ideas featuring sumptuous berry shades and playful pinks. Plus, we have recipes perfect for dinner a deux and offer our picks of some of the most tempting chocolate selections to woo your sweetheart.

For those with a passion for gardening we take a tour of John Massey's private garden at Ashwood Nurseries. The renowned plantsman will be opening up his garden to the public for charity. See our stunning pictures which show that even in winter it's blooming lovely.

This month's travel reviews are Denmark and Bolivia, our property section features a £2million home in Wombourne and motoring expert John Griffiths test drives the new Land Rover Discovery Sport.
