The fox, the rabbit & the faux

I absolutely love fur, and have searched for years to try and find the perfect fur coat.

A few weeks before Christmas I found it at a vintage fair in Essex. A lovely coney jacket stood out to me, understated and easy to wear, I just had to have it. Since then, I was bought a beautiful faux fur coat from Warehouse, lovely for the less cold months.
Today however I inherited a fantastic fabulous fur off my great aunt, red fox, it's A-mazing!! It would definitely be the one thing I would save in a fire. I don't feel I will get as much wear out of the fox as I do the coney though, not where I live anyway. Now I'm looking for a fur muff and a stole to add to my collection.

Just call me Cruella :)

Hello hello :)

It's been a few days, but I have a great excuse, I promise :D
I've been on a little trip to Dublin...such fun!! I definitely recommend you pay a visit. I'm currently enjoying a cuppa and watching an episode of NCIS because I'm bleedin exhausted. I went with my friend and her parents, which was super, apart from sightseeing we just ate and drank all day. My kind of vacation.
We took a trip to the Guinness factory, so worth the money, we got to pull a pint (or craft a pint) and received a certificate :) so proud of myself.
We also went to the leprechaun museum, hearing fun tales of fairies and little shoemakers..Ever so fun!

Until next time dears :)

Pierre Balmain...

This is what I'll be dressed like in heaven... I'm sure of it.
This grown up 60's inspired collection, is the epitome of cool. These pieces could sit in your wardrobe forever and still be chic. I do always say that to justify a spontaneous purchase, but really, I'm being totally serious about this collection. Tailoring, leather, fishnets and a hint of print; what more could you ask for. So let us take a look at some of the collection for men and women...

Enjoy :)

Literally in love with everything in this Istanbul influenced collection. Fabulous textures and layering created a chic urban look, very wearable pieces throughout. Printed silky slips were the fundamental element in the majority of the looks, heavily layered with statement outerwear, cashmere and casual t shirts. Outerwear was of course a big part of the collection, long, short and midi length all got a look in, leather boxy bikers, a patchwork fur gilet and fur trimmed jackets added the urban edge to this collection.

NYFW we love you....
