You’ll can spot me every Halloween, I’m usually the one with the grossest costume you can imagine. This year I took it down a notch and was a fairly sensible Columbo, but I can still never do fashion-Halloween. I loved putting together this outfit though, a stylish way to do spooky. MAC’s Rougemarie is the best faux-bloody shade I’ve used and looks good all year round.
To help mark our AW11 Press Day at work I got Jackie Dixon in to shoot some of our fave bloggers in their pick of AW pieces. The resulting pictures are a 100 times better than I wished, everyone looks really happy and has styled pieces in their own distinctive way. Jackie kindly fitted a [...]
I love packing at the best of times, but when you’re faced with two panniers to pack in, one of which you want to keep kind of empty because it’s Koninginnedag and the whole of the Netherlands is having a car boot sale, yes siree… Well that’s one kind of fashion rubix cube I can [...]
Celebrating St Patrick’s Day last week with half a Guinness in the Lamb, the OC doesn’t stand for Orange County y’know. Fresh from Crufts, Sam is rocking a pug necklace and a tiger ring on a chain. I’m wearing a croco ring gifted from Soho Hearts (thanks guys!), see picture below for the up close [...]
My sister is a bit of genius, we’ve written whole romcoms on gchat before which will never see the light of day (softly spoken Irish/Scottish love interest, LOL) but when she sent me this piece of eye candy I had to share. A cat rucksack! Catsack?
It’s perfect for my practical side, and my crackpot librarian [...]
At my local library there was a woman who used to have an ultra-long thick french plait, and she sported a heady combo of round glasses, plastic jewellery, Laura Ashley dresses layered with waistcoats and low court shoes. In short a bit of a fashion genius.
This set of portraits of LSE librarians from the [...]
Feast your eyes on this! Teaser pics of GIles Deacon’s collection for Happy Socks have just landed and they’re even better than I imagined. Referencing his googly eye motif, and the diamanté spider form a few seasons back they’re fun but real purdy too. And omg I die! 70 Euros for a boxed collection of [...]
I’m not going to write a post apologising for being a slack blogger because that is a pure blogger jinx and leads to posting on a monthly basis to apologise for not posting. ANYWAY, so instead I’m going to tell you about these amazing shoes I saw in the charity shop.
I don’t own them [...]
When your mum (coucou!) sends you emails asking you why you’re not blogging you know you have to fix up. Until full internet and thus proper blogging is restored here is a little post which might help us through Chanel’s pastoral summer.
This season everyone is attempting, or considering clogs but think for a minute what [...]
At work the people in France do a lot of work with the français fashion bloggers, so I get to see what’s hip across la Manche. On one of my blogspeditions I saw the face of the Topshop Unique shows staring back at me, but it wasn’t a cave lady, it was a real person [...]
