London wrap up...

Monday it was 28 degrees and then it just dropped. Walking home from work on Wednesday afternoon I could not get the idea of a fur coat out of my head...(yesterday I almost impulse purchased one in Harrods)

By Thursday this week I decided it was time to pull out the good old Marc. This jacket is one of my all time favorites. I got it ages ago when I used to live in Italy, it has the ability to make a very dull outfit look really cool and fun, (as seen here with just a simple T by Wang tshirt and Helmut Lang jeans) 

I love matching it with my new baby...the peagreen PS1 as well...

For a Saturday brunch and shopping...

Dress: vintage Chloe (worn with Current Elliott shorts which is not showing)

Sweater: Urban Outfitters

Boots: Miu Miu

bag: PS1

sunnies: Celine

ring: YSL

Fashion Week favorites

 I like to think beyond the fact that a shoelace from Hermes is about £10 000 and look at the amazing new collection. It is the second from the new designer since Jean Paul left. I find it refreshing and def one of the high lights at Paris fashion week. Not only is it a collection which represents the brand completely but for the first time (since I got into fashion) it is actually something that I can imagine myself wearing.

 

Oh Isabel, why do you do this to me?!?!?

Let's just say the Queen of boho-parisian-chic has done it again...

 

I find the every season I either love the Prada collection and hate the Miu Miu or the other way round....

Spring 2012 is a Prada lover!

I cant wait running down 5th Avenue in one of these dresses and the chunky jewellery...

Moda Operandi

"I can't wait for the Carven dress to go online! I need it NOW!" (anonymous flatmate)

Solution? Moda Operandi

Created by one of my all time favorite fashion editors/personalities Lauren (I use to know her a Davies, but now it is) Santo Domingo, it is the ultimate site to be a member at, as you can pre order straight from the catwalk. I personally refers to it as the most exciting fashion site since Net-a-porter.com.

As I am at the moment about to move to New York in two weeks time (exactly today actually!!!) it is not the best time to spend £3000 on a dress (which is the damage that my dream PS dress would do to my bank account...) but I am more then thrilled to find out what my flatty will have to say about it...

FW moments...

NY FW

Yes I know it is old news now, but I am trying to make up my mind which shows I love the most (and where to place the future investments...)

Maybe its because I am crossing the pond long term in a couple of weeks but the NYC fashion week shows was very good this time. The Proenza was def a fav for the season. As for now...I have the benefit of having the body of a model without being one (I know this will sound like a silly complain but I don't know how many times (per week) I have to explain to strangers and friends of friends (majority of these, MEN) why I am not considering joining the model industry)Second week at my current job, a girl (then stranger, now rule model) comes over to me asking if she can use me to try on the outfits for the upcoming shot the following morning...so for now I am try fit model for the shots. I did a fitting yesterday morning (not to self DO NOT have breakfast on a day you are required to model UK size 6...) and it was a lot of fun. There are some really cool things at work...

Paris fashion week final-iiii
