Basics

Dear cotton crazies,

I cannot get out of my white tee. It makes me nervous that as the sun hides my bright whites will have to too.

Mathmatical Illustration






Dear Sum Robots,


Being mortifyingly challenged when it comes to the art of multiples, division, subtraction and so on (i can barely add without the aid of a calculator) i have a somewhat strong obsession with the visuals of mathematics and the work of Barry Reigate floats my boat. Go and check out his work at Paradise Row, i certainly will.

Sincerely, Thread

Pop a Dot


Dear circular beings,

I am starting to go dotty for dots. Particularly when they are on a sheer fabric and worn top to toe.

Metal Wear is on my mind


Dear Hand cuff carers,

Let's not mess about. This necklace, collar, giant great big metal circle of coolness is pretty special. Why not walk around with a ring around your neck. Metal, you are on my radar.

Corinne Day




Dear Corinne Admirers,

I was very lucky to have spent some time working with Corinne Day along with the wonderful people around her and was consistently in awe of her ability to create the visions in her head to film from start to finish. Her images are my go-to for when i want to get my brain in gear or just to pass the time in the perfect way.

This exhibition is undoubtedly a must.

Sincerely, Thread

Print Power


Dear colour combusters,


The sun has come out and I am dressed top to toe in black; not cool and not clever. This induced a frenzied moment of getting as much colour and happiness onto one page as possible with the above result. Enjoy whilst i quietly overheat.

Feminine wiles amongst high winds








Dear Weather followers,

Its August and its cold, currently decked out in knits and ankle boots i am pondering on how one might approach this disconcerting weather without looking like its the dark depths of winter. The answer soft hues, flowing silks, and loose shapes. BOOM - Everything i like.

Colour Create

Dear colour cravers,

I understand your need. As much as i could never pull these shades off, i am besotted by all of it. Pink a colour and triple it, i'll just sit by the sidelines and watch with envy in monochrome.


Sincerely, Thread




Can't remember where i got this image from. Soz

Ice white and seriously cool


Dear Warm blooded,

Well i had to tone down the sweltering thoughts of my last post. It was wrong of me, i apologise. Know lets get onto this whole situation, white, androgynous juxtaposed with femininity, flats. Utterly style setting. As cold as ice willing to sacrifice.

Sincerely, Thread

Hell - its sweltering and i can't stop thinking about knits

Dear naughty knitters,

Don't get me wrong, i LOVE summer. Don't want it to end. But man i do adore a bit of knitwear, cable, sheer, cashmere, mohair anything. I still have to find an array of knits for my winter wardrobe. I had a little dip into the pool at the weekend which i will show you shortly but i have yet to discover my knit pants, trousers, vest and socks - JOKES (although secretly i think that sounds like quite a good look)

Flashing a frill


Dear frill seekers (see what i did there)

Its pretty gorge though right?

Vogue Weekend

I plan to be a sultry siren




Dear sirens in the making,

I fancy joining your troop. I have tried burlesque before, me and my friend were AMAZING, too good to go back again evidently.
However i have let the standards slip and i feel the need to step into my siren sling backs, throw moody glances with red lips, strut around Paris and generally brood.
Watch This Step, whilst i work out what the first step is....

Fling me a full sleeve


Dear flounce favourers,


Its all about the sleeve for me, well the neckline also, hell frankly a ruffle anywhere feels me with unnatural joy. Get on it and shake your bits, that sounds wrong but you know what i mean.
