sandro


These are undoubtedly the best trousers i have ever owned. I actually dreamed about them 2 years before i managed to track them down / they were even designed(?) (does anyone else get that?) so when i finally laid my eyes on them while working in Paris i was over the moon. Before that I had never heard of Sandro so it was double whammy - they're product is so gorgeous and they have concession in Fenwick's if you can't make trip to France. The trousers are silk so lovely and light to wear, hide a multitude of sins and make me feel a bit naughty. Also note the power shoulders - a trend i really loved on the catwalk but not overly embraced myself. More so i like the embellished shoulders you see on the high street - makes the wearer walk straighter and taller which is never a bad thing

13th January 2010 - snow calls for vinatge glamour




Waking up to this level of snow was for me rather magical. I can't help but get a thrill over it being so white and fluffy. This was also the perfect weather for my vintage red jumpsuit but i just needed to work out which shoes to wear.......mmmmhh

11th January 2010 - Ben Sherman launch



I produced an event for Ben Sherman at the beginning of the year and as a result they were sweet enough to let us loose in their stores to find something super to wear to the party. Unfortunately for me I left this little venture until the last minute by which point the rails had been decimated with the sales and the only thing left that fitted me was this dress which seems destined to be creased for ever and flaters me about 5%. Shame as last season their womenswear range had some lovely stuff. lesson to moi
p.s note the white tights in my attempt at mod look

5th January 2010 - all about the boots




The snow has inspired a million people to rush out and buy items of clothing that in all honesty probably won't seee the light of day again for 10 years once it's all melted. But who am i to rain on this fashion parade? Check out these amazing boots from office that have been my snow staple - so high yet so non slippy. I feel rather indestructable in these, which is only enhanced by the all black outfit - no messin'

layers & layers & layers



Like you need me to go on about how cold it is at the moment but really how cold can it get?! I have about 10 layers on in this photo and in the words of my boyfriend I look a-dork-able apparently. Sweet of him to say.
