I always find myself running late when it comes to preparing for certain events where a certain look is very much appreciated. For example Fashion Week, I often end up pulling my looks together at the very last minute. Way too stressful, and I’m always telling myself in that exact moment that I should plan my things better next time. Now Fashion Week isn’t quite there yet, but the Holidays are, so I forced myself to get “Holiday-ready” early this year… Proudly I present to you my first Holiday look: The perfect jumpsuit, with the most beautiful red shoes, and the fairytale box clutch of my dreams…
What can I say… I’m simply obsessed with this 70’s trend – I’m close to wishing I was living my early 30’s in the 70’s – so when MIH Jeans announced to do a capsule collection for Net-a-Porter which was very 70’s inspired, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a few of their pieces. This a-line skirt was an absolute challenge to style, I mean, I’ve never really wore an a-line skirt before, or anything denim like that. I wasn’t really sure if I could pull it of with my length etc. But it turned out so freakin’ perfect. Obviously we’re in November right now, and going outside wearing just a skirt and a lace shirt isn’t super realistic, though today temperatures have risen from the death; it feels like spring. I kid you not. Sadly this isn’t going to last, but until I have to snug myself up again, I’m definitely enjoying this flaw of nature in November wearing just this.
There’s nothing cooler than a product made especiallyforyour, or designedbyyou. The first option comes with the second when you have your Longchamp Le Pliage Personalized online, or as I did at their Soho New York store: especially made for your, just the way you want it.
We all like to dream, especially when the holidays are upon us, we like to dream about the things we wish for the most. I love creating wish lists, it’s a never ending thing, because there are always new things to wish for. Which is a beautiful thing, because it gives us something to work for, and whenever the time comes that you can tick of one of your wishes, it gives that ultimate feeling of “dreams coming true…”
I’ve a traveller’s spirit when it comes to places to work. I’m not in the luxury – yet – to rent a little office on Broadway, but our souterrain and Soho House are pretty awesome workspaces until then. Ideally this is what I would wear to the office these days: soft tones, comfortable fits. An all grey look with just a little powder pink makes it so much more exciting. Of course as part of the style-off. Talking about that, which of the three looks is your favorite? Would you prefer to go downtown shopping with in a pastel rainbow attire, or maybe have Sunday brunch in all pink, or perhaps this slouchy pink-grey office attire is more your thing. Tell me!
