Highs and lows

When it comes to fashion, I love to mix it up.

I don't feel right dressed head to toe in all things dressy.

At the moment I'm teaming crystal earrings with superfine tee's. It's the perfect mix for daytime luxe.

Black Velvet

For some reason the fall collection from Alexander Wang filled my head with the Alannah Myles Black Velvet song.

It was filled with chunky rib leg warmers, decadent velvet and a dark sexy take on pinstripe.

Jumper Rumper

Take after Caroline Brasch and pair your favourite striped jumper with some rolled up shorts and statement black shoes.

Hand me the card

The new Yves Saint Laurent space has just opened at Dover Street Market.

If only I was in London with a platnium credit card....

Quote of the day

Gone fishing

I spotted some chunky fisherman knit cardi's at Topshop which look very similar to the Stella McCartney ones!

I'll be wearing my black one with tights and heels.

Far, far away

I'll have a Pina colada and a Missoni kaftan thanks.

I've been dreaming about a hot summer holiday preferably at some island far far away..... ok so I may have been watching too many travel shows recently but this dress from Missoni would be first on my packing list.

I can see clearly now

Perspex.... formally known for sign writing and rain coats..... is now.... wait for it....PRADA. Oh my how it has grown!

My leather bag usually resembles a bit of a bombsite... so hey perhaps it would actually save me some time and I'll never lose my keys inside my bag again*.

*Yes I have actually done this... more than once...
