Of course I couldn’t resist placing a cheeky order from Sezane, after essentially swooning over their Fall Pre-Collection Lookbook. I kept it fairly edited; at this point I tend to know which styles and fabrications will work for me. And it struck me when I sat down to analyse each of these new additions, that I generally only had good things to say. A rarity for brands that I only have access to via online order. So without further ado, let’s dive into this Sezane fall collection try-on & review. Sezane Noe Jacket wearing size S (fits true to size)…
I have one simple style rule when it comes to buying shoes. They’re my kryptonite, so perhaps it’s little surprise that I’ve amassed quite the collection. And this one thing is absolutely non-negotiable when I’m buying new shoes. They must be comfortable. Of course, it’s a spectrum. Some shoes will need to be broken in a little, especially if you have wide feet. Almost like a rite of passage. But if the leather is too thick and stiff, it’s generally a pass from me. If there’s a strap that is digging in from the get go, that doesn’t look like…
When I first started to explore my personal style two decades ago, streetwear was having a huge moment (which side note, it still is). Creating visual interest and intrigue through the use of layering, unexpected silhouettes, and texture underpinned many of the outfits I was trying to replicate, but on a shoestring budget. So it won’t come as a surprise that I’ve followed the collaboration between Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto, and iconic sportswear brand adidas – Y-3 – for many years with great interest. And before we dive in, quick PSA, the new adidas Y-3 collection just dropped so take this as your cue to…
Autumn and Spring always represent to me one thing; opportunity. To really maximise the versatility of your wardrobe heroes while playing around with layering. It can be that awkward, in-between period, so today, in partnership with YOOX we’re running through some key transitional season staples that’ll make the journey to building a great outfit (no matter the weather) a cinch. For those not yet familiar with YOOX, it’s a dream destination when it comes to shopping for high quality, luxurious wardrobe staples (and statement pieces). Their designer directory is incredibly extensive, and it’s my go-to when seeking out off-season or hard-to-find pieces…
A change in season can mean one thing, and one thing only. Time for some seasonal wardrobe analysis. I’ve been tracking what I wear for close to a decade now. Longer if you consider my obsessive wardrobe tracking when I first began my personal style journey. And the insights that I’ve gained from this project have been fascinating. It’s allowed me to monitor what types of items I’m gravitating towards most. Highlighted my love of neutral, typically classic cut styles. But more recently, been a document of how my preferences have shifted through becoming a mum, and the pandemic. It’s…
