EDELINE LEE AW16

IMG_5696

Edeline Lee always works with such lovely colour pallets for her collections (she maintains a long-standing collaboration with Little Greene since being inspired by a refurb several years ago of her own home). This season she stuck to more neutrals, with creams, off-white whites, lined silhoutted macs & pretty pastels on patterned dresses. Tees & dresses hung loosely with oversized pockets, paired with high waisted pleated pants, a touch of the 1920s mixed in with the geometrics of the Swinging Sixties. Oh, & how much does the model in the last pic look look like a young Angelina?!

REGINA PYO AW15

d

Looking through old photos & came across these unpublished ones - Regina Pyo, AW15. Last year was the first time I came across this designer, but was so glad I did. Darker, moody shades of tweed & velvet interrupted with flashes of metallic & luxe. Cut-out evening dresses & daytime collared suits. Very cool.

JOHN SMEDLEY SS16

IMG_5212s

I was invited to preview the John Smedley SS16 knitwear collection over fashion week: delicate fine knits in muted cream & grape tones, certainly classics with a twist worth investing in! They have that luxe, timeless feel yet retain a unique singularity unseen elsewhere. I also loved how the sweater below was tied a few inches below the shoulder, it's like a reinvention of the preppy sweater-around-the-neck-tie, most recently followed by the more literal sweater-as-a-scarf knot; this reincarnation seems both more refined & enduring!

VIELMA LONDON SS16 COLLECTION

IMG_5116

Vielma London went to 1970s Vegas for their SS16 collection, with over-the-knee suede boots, orange ombre perspex heels, midnight blue satin, & rorschach blotted suede minidresses. The girls wore red lipstick, dangled cigarettes nonchantly between their fingers, & swayed along to the sounds of the gramaphone. American nostalgia with a hint of mystery, I loved it!

LIFE LATELY - OYSTERS, PROSECCO... & ALPACAS

IMG_4881

Three months since my last post? Whoops! Lots has been going on, an imminent (fingers crossed!) house move (can't wait to redecorate & get my all own furniture!), a trip to New York City, & just a general appreciation of this year's Summer. So far, the weather has (almost) held it's own pretty awesomely. Luckily, the sun shined for Lambeth Country Fair last week, where I saw a few goats (above), a couple of meerkats, oh & of course the odd alpaca. Yesterday was another fair, this time in Clapham & strictly for foodies only. Oysters were shucked, prosecco poured, herb gardens visited, & I ended up seriously impressed (unexpectedly) with what the Co-op is currently offering. At their stall they were offering slices of pizza with prosecco for just £4, & I feel the days of a dreary Co-op in comparison to more mighty giants like Waitrose are on their way out: a big marketing push, & a cute alternative for weekly foodshops - heck, they're the main store on Lordship Lane!

I'll be blogging more consistently with fashion week practically around the corner, but you can keep up with me on instagram for daily doses of kitten cuteness, or pinterest, where I'm developing a Scandi-Brooklyn-Bloomsbury interior style...

EUDON CHOI AW15

IMG_36w40

Eudon Choi 2015 was full of brocade, decadent silks, bohemian tassled shawls & structured sleeveless coats. A touch of the military & sporty aesthetic filtered through the collection, from a sharply pleated blouse paired with a khaki skirt, to an athletic wide neon stripe detailing a pair of billowing black silk pants. Hair was tied back in messy topknots or plaited for the folkier looks, whilst eyes were finished with a swipe of liner just above the lid. My favourite piece was the deep golden sleeveless coat lined in the most beautiful royal blue: effortless chic at its finest.
