THE BOX

—————————————————

Wearing: Ann Sofie Back coat layered over Limi Feu jacket, Edun shirt, Moxham Eygypt necklace, Acne trousers, Jack Purcell Converse, Dagmar and Helmut Lang bracelets

—————————————————

Whilst this outfit may seem a little extreme for the nice weather we’re sort of having at the moment, this is the kind of look you get used to in London; warm if the weather turns mean and easily shed when the sun turns a smile.

I love this new shirt by Edun, which is pretty much just a square with a collar attached, also the whole ‘cocoon with some legs sticking out and walking around’ look. Super comfortable and super layered.

STEEL TOE CAPS

How kick ass are my new Nelly shoes? Nobody wants to get on the wrong side of me! Taken in Devon on one of my last days there, it was super windy and drizzly, a total opposite to when I arrived, but that’s what it’s like living on the coast! After getting these shoes I’ve definitely decided I need more sleek stilettos, I love the steel toes, somebody on facebook thought it was a DIY, which would be pretty awesome. There’s no real need for a DIY though when the shoes are such an amazing price anyway! You can find them here in all different colours.

Thanks for my bro for helping me out with the outfit shots! 

DROUGHT

—————————————————

Last Friday I went to the countryside in Bedfordshire; we’ve had a lot of rainfall in the past week and most of the fields were flooded and the rivers burst their banks, it’s hard to believe that we are still in a nationwide drought somehow. I dressed up warm in lots of black layers and my sheepy Goodone sweater that is so comfy to wear it’s unreal! Also, the girls couldn’t believe I’d worn heels to the countryside but Miista shoes are so comfortable it wasn’t hard to scale the walls and walk about in the fields. 

Thanks Kit for the photos!

MONOCHROME LAYERS

Wearing: Ann-Sofie Back coat, Limi Feu coat, Charlie May sheer white dress, Dagmar black dress, Ann Demeulemeester triple lace boots, Alexander Wang clutch, Maria Nilsdotter rings

 Outfit worn on the 4th day of London fashion week, it was so cold at Somerset House I was glad for two jackets, which meant that the dress didn’t really come out other than for these photos.. oh welll! I love the layering of the Limi lapels over the minimal Ann-Sofie jacket, it’s so much warmer having a collar around your neck in the cold! This was my last day at LFW too before I admitted myself to bed for the rest of the week; I’m back in Devon now for some serious country relaxation, sat in front of the roaring fire as we speak. Perfection. Hope you’re all having a great weekend!

Thanks to Lexxi for the photos.

NAVY AND RUST

Wearing: Ann-Sofie Back coat, Acne peggy shirt, Alexander Wang crossover bra, Vivienne Westwood trousers, Balenciaga shoes, Moxham taba bracelet, Persol opticals

Aside from the heels, this makes seriously comfy loungewear. I’ve been living in this outfit in the studio since being back in London and slipping on a pair of heels to dash out for meetings. I feel much more energised since the Christmas break, my new years resolution, to get up at 7am every morning, has meant i’m up before the workmen demolishing away and I’m no longer a cranky morning person. I am excited about it getting lighter again though. I hope you’re all enjoying the new year!

COMMENTATOR

A little interview after the Ann-Sofie back show at London Fashion Week, last September. I can see why Pepe decided sunglasses were a good choice, my eyes look cross-eyed at one point! The Ann-Sofie Back show was hands down my favourite S/S show; see more of my review here.

Thanks Fashion on Film for the link!

SQUARE

Wearing: Persol sunglasses, Ann-Sofie Back coat, COS sleeveless knit, Unknown gold collar, Vintage pleated skirt, Alexander Wang boots

The weather in London is perfect at the moment, the sun’s shining but it’s cold enough to wrap up in my new winter wardrobe. Wearing my new Persol sunglasses, absolutely in love with the pattern in the acetate, resembling oil and water! I’ll do a detail shot some time for you all to see the yumminess. 

COSYING UP FOR WINTER

Wearing: Ann-Sofie Back coat, COS shirt, Complex Geometries skirt, Ann Demeulemeester boots, Limited Ed. Maxfactor lipstick in Burnt Caramel

Another find whilst in Antwerp was this Ann-Sofie Back coat from the RA concept store. I’d never been there before but it was totally incredible; stocking designers like Damir Doma, Rodarte, Louise Goldin and Gareth Pugh, it was a treasure trove of designer goodies! They have an online shop too which sells mostly at full price but there are still some bargains to be found. I went out to Antwerp thinking it was going to be sunny and warm, in reality it was wet and cold so it’s no surprising I left with lots of coats! So happy with this find, a perfect minimal coat for winter that’s so oversized I feel like I’m wrapped in a blanket.
