The timing of tweed


Dear tweed testers, 

Don't you think there is a time when tweed shouts - 'hey you, look at me. I'm classic, stylish, been around the block and back. Snap me up, i'll make you feel great.' I experienced the tweed shout the other day, i feel better for it.  

More importantly, beautiful image

Feathers are on the fast track to fabulous


Dear feather fancies, 

I have to admit i have always been a fan of the plume. There is something about the way it sits on its rightful owner or me. The detail, the feeling, the tickling. I would be happy if i had a dress made entirely from feathers. Preferably McQueen but i'm not fussy.

A blouse in bloom


Dear blouse devotees,

I have a new one and its a fave. 1930's the softest silk with the biggest sleeves you ever saw and that frustratingly you can't really see here. Trust me their envelop small human beings type of huge. On the bottom half a pair of old french workwear trousers aka a smokin' cargo pant. See what you can do with a bit of old stuff? 
I don't mean me, i mean the clothes. I am as young as a baby.
