Brunch- Spring In Our Step
We landed in London Gatwick a mere 24 hours ago, into a bitingly cold, typically grey London day, a shock to the system from sunny Cuba. Spring, how I long for thee. My mind is already fast forward into the season of new beginnings, pastel colours, flowers and freshness and this is my ideal uniform…

#NYFW AW’16 An Atmosphere- Tommy Hilfiger
I like a good atmosphere in a fashion show sometimes. I know, I am guilty of belabouring the fact that sometimes too much can be too much when it comes to fashion, and we lose the actual point to be made and taken- the clothes, but sometimes the atmosphere contributes to the feel of the…

#NYFW Fall ’16- The Celebrity Designer
Fashion Week is here again, and the spectacle has begun, from Burberry’s announcement to skip the seasonal calendar, more or less, to Tom Ford over the thing all together and Kanye’s tomfoolery, it is gearing up to be another one of those seasons that will have us all exhausted by the end of it. If we…

Shopping- COS Basics
Shopping in COS has never been appealing to me, I find it too bland, the clothes are rather uninspiring, the colours too block, too bold, too cold, and too old. I prefer the fun of H&M its more streetwise older/younger sister and the contemporary ease of &Other Stories the more casually sophisticated upmarket other sister. One day however, I…

#NYFW- What it was, What it wasn’t.
Fashion Week is over. Finally! Is it me or does it feel like every other week is fashion week somewhere someplace? Right? And New York goes on forever… so much so the rhythm gets lost in the groove. This season was no different. It gets there in the end, makes us tired before we get to…

#NYFW SS16-Pretty Dresses & Fishermen’s Hats
For the past few seasons, I’ve found fashion week to be a bit mundane, and repetitive, we keep having the same arguments and going round the same circles, New York is too long, London too short and typical, by the time we get to Paris its all so tediously messy, and somewhere along the line…

The Fashion Victim
You remember in school when you were the last kid to come in on anything cool, and by the time you did, the other kids already moved on to the next cool thing, which left you forever trying to play catch up? It’s like that for me with music; not to long ago I listened, really listened to the words of…

Brunch with Chuck
A few days ago, I bought my first pair of White converse! I’ve always wanted a pair of white converse you see, I have it in other colours; pink, wine, blue, black…but not in white and every time I see a girl wearing a pair I immediately want one. Well last week my first pair…

Dresses of Summer
Tis the season, what are you wearing? Temperatures are rising and summer’s been calling. I love the summer, the recklessness of the wardrobe, the feeling of eternal fun, longer says, shorter nights, pretty sunrises and pretty dresses. Notice how people care a lot less in the summer about anything really. Don’t you just LOVE IT! Our…
