CRISP WHITE TAILORING
How good is a white suit with black shoes, or vice versa?? Completely impractical, but maybe that makes me love white tailoring even more. Céline, Haider Ackermann and Narciso Rodriquez (a rising favourite) are some of the best. I’m planning a summer holiday to Turkey in a few months and I’m dreaming of wearing this exclusively, a black bikini under a white blazer hung over the shoulders, and those dreamy loose white shorts – begging myself to make this happen.

STICKS AND STONES
In the English countryside at the moment enjoying some R&R before lots of buyers meetings begin to take place next week. I still have so many pictures from the show to share with you that I will start to put up soon, I promise! Right now I’m enjoying taking little 7 month old Kobi out for long walks and knowing that a large chunk of the work is done. :)
DRY ICE
Do you like my new shower mat, worn as a skirt? I love seeing fashion through the eyes of someone who doesn’t get it, and my bf constantly comes out with little gems such as this. It’s OBVIOUSLY a laser cut neoprene skirt with a houndstooth lining showing through underneath.. uh, and It’s perfectly warm for braving the cold.

NOVEMBER
Another it’s-pouring-down-with-rain-what-do-I-wear kind of day! It seems in this situation I just pile things on, until there’s nothing left in my wardrobe. So, other than the family reunion on my body – I have this new clutch c/o Hoss Intropia, that I love, it has all the textures I could want in one thing; paired with this super soft cashmere scarf by Ahilya, who’s a happy new discovery for me.
Are you guys looking forward to MMM x H&M tomorrow? I feel like there’s so much more I want as the days get closer, really not looking forward to those queues though!

UNIFORM
This has been my general studio uniform this week, after umming and ahhing over this shirt dress for a while, I decided that it had to be mine (the only reason for umming and ahhing is that I could easily make myself a shirt dress, but that never seems a priority when there’s so much else going on). I’ve been busy making these simple leather cuff bracelets, soon to be available on Bengt. Also, if you’re lucky enough to make it to the HPR press day; you’ll find one in your goodie bag on exit. Perfect!
I also can’t wait to show you guys the lookbook we shot on Wednesday! If you follow me on Instagram you’ll already have some idea but I’ve very proud of this one!
FALLING BACK TO BLACK
This last week I’ve been fighting a cold and feeling pretty sluggish, living in this jumper combo seemed the only option when biking around East London to various appointments, whilst fighting the vicious wind! This outfits nothing groundbreaking but comfy and effortless shouldn’t be underestimated. The ankle boots were bought as a little pick me up, despite wanting the knee high versions in an earlier post, I knew I would wear these a lot more often.
AUTUMN STRUCK
This week I had to take my camera in to be repaired, after taking these photos with Kit, with her telling me off for not taking good care of her old camera, I found out the whole shutter release needed replacing! The focus had been playing up for weeks but I think I was in total denial. Now that it’s fixed I promise to take more care of it always.
As for the outfit, autumn is here in London and its freezing cold, I’ve been digging out winter wardrobe favourites, such as this Haider Ackermann waistcoat that doubles up as blanket when napping, a wrap from the wind chill, or an umbrella when it rains. It’s all things for winter really and possibly all I need to survive the cold.
WINTER BOOTS
I’m more excited that Autumn is here because it means I can start wearing my knee high boots again! I only own two pairs currently, which are these and my triple lace boots. There are so many amazing ones online at the moment, I thought I’d share with you my favourites!

WAISTCOATAPHOBIA
I’ve had this waistcoat in my wardrobe for well over a year, whilst I love the minimal design, I’ve been finding it tricky to wear and it’s only so far seen the light of day once. I think I feel this way about all waistcoats; they are quite dressy and almost feel like an unnecessary addition to an outfit. I finally triumphed yesterday, by wearing this piece with a simple sheer tank and plain skirt. Yay to not being a waistcoataphobe anymore!
SHIVER ME TIMBERS
Wearing some of my favourite Antwerp purchases; it was hard not to feel piratey with Alexxsia singing the Pirates of the Caribbean theme tune all the way through shooting… so here’s a dedication
