I’m a bit late to the Topshop AW10 party but here I am anyway with a few bottles of cheap white wine to keep things going for a little longer. I’ve made a pick of the lookbook, can’t say no to the pompom headband and the subtly polka dotted jeans. I also like what they [...]

When Goodone‘s email dropped into my inbox on Monday I wasn’t expecting their lookbook to be so, well, good. It’s a bit of a cliché but ethical fashion can sometimes leave a little to be desired. For a fuller, more thought-out piece of prose on the subject go read Susie Bubble’s Helen Furber post. I [...] Warriors! Come out to plaay-aay! That the first thing that came to mind when I saw the styling in Minimarket’s AW10 lookbook is the amazing film Warriors. Just like the Baseball Furies their faces are all painted up in bold designs, which looks great with the cloche hats made from feathers, wood veneer and pastel [...] Sometimes I waver between going to a press day and having a relaxed full lunch break, I decided to soldier on to the Toast press day and it was wonderfully worth it, I left feeling refreshed and laden with knowledge. One of the designers very kindly took me round, talking about the team’s love of [...] Technical issues (yes Rachael I STILL don’t have broadband!) means this post is a little overdue but there’s nothing like a good weekend blogging catch-up sesh. The Arcadia press day is always a mammoth event, housing Dorothy Perkins, Wallis, Evans, Miss Selfridge, Burton, Topman and Topshop under one roof, it’s a hulluva lot to take [...] Clarks press day AW10: brogues, suede wedges, riding boots, chelsea boots, houndstooth desert boots, and oh my goodness leopard ponyskin brothel creepers! Exciting stuff, they’re all my main shoe groups of lust from the previous winter and it’s all got the Clarks seal of quality which means they should last a few seasons too. On [...] I’m currently feeling the sporty look in a big way, not only is it BOT for SS10 but cycling home from work means that I’m confronted with an endless array of hump backpack covers, cycling shorts, leggings and hi-tech trainers. Then there’s me gently pootling along on my old lady bike drawing vague looks of [...] Jaeger are quite well-positioned to tap into the whole Celine-inspired grown-up chic that’s so popular at the moment. The camel pants that you see to the left (colour’s a little off) features leather trims to make all the fashionistas swoon and as you can see they have quite a few Celine-esque pieces up their sleeve. [...] Thanks to Rachael, and by extension Twineth, for alerting me to how good Radley shoes are at the moment. At a press day today instead of ambling past I made a beeline for the shoes and yes, they are as good as the summer collection. Chunky-heeled lace ups in dirty lime and black have that Heartbeat [...] Oh dear, a pounding headache hangover isn’t going to do the Margaret Howell press day any justice but I can’t let the blog languish any longer. A beautiful, beautiful, colour palette is always something you’ll expect from MH and the buttery, slightly acidic yellow shade she’s using at the moment is near-constantly on my mind. [...]  |
