Glitter Guide

A few weeks ago the lovely Glitter Guide team came to my Brooklyn apartment to shoot a 'Style At Home' feature. In anticipation of this, there was mass flower buying/ cleaning/ shopping and even the procurement of one rather large fig plant. Check out the results on the Glitter Guide here!

Antelopes

Mixing prints. A wardrobe challenge if ever I knew one. A million 'how to' articles exist, proffering equivocal advice like 'If you have two patterns of the same style, such as two plaids, you'll do best by mixing up the scale of the print'.  Eh, what? 
There's a fine line between nailing cohesive coordination and in cold light of day, appearing like you got dressed in the dark (so I have found.) Perhaps ability lies in genetics. You're either born with or without, like rolling your tongue or having dimples.   So here's my interpretation of mixing print, this silk skirt with its little cavorting antelopes (yes, they are antelopes.) It is my worn and loved go to print, which unusually, does seem to go with everything.

Seeing Stripes

Captured in a rare moment of English sunshine, this outfit is me blending in with the nautical sea side surroundings. This vintage skirt is the newest addition to my pleated skirt collection. I don't think I'll be able to stop till I have one in every colour.
