The sandal that epitomizes the shoe of my youth; what was once a cult item amongst my friends seems to have resurfaced in the most unlikely of places. Mine were of the mono-strap variety, a crisp white which just like a pair of Cons, seemed to get better with age. Your toes would furrow into the carefully thought out soles, which offered more comfort than most other shoes I’ve owned, especially after a full day on your feet. I was probably just as surprised as anyone else to…
Topshop cable knit sweater, ASOS midi pleated skirt, Charlotte Olympia kitty flats, Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel, Marc by Marc Jacobs katie bracelet There’s something about sunshine and the waterfront which just to me go hand in hand, almost like the notion that peanut butter is so perfect paired with a saccharine raspberry jam.

Why cloak yourself in darkness when there’s ample opportunity to dig out all your summer clothing which has received little wear since the early months of the year, right? Even with sunshine, I can’t help but be a creature of habit, regardless of the perceived ‘stigma’. Just like that rule, not to wear black and navy together, a combination I’m guilty…
Kate Sylvester ‘jean’ bodice (similar), RUBY jeans, Kate Sylvester coat (similar), Marni two-tone heels, Proenza Schouler PS11 bag, Marc by Marc Jacobs katie bracelet Seeing out the remainder of these cold days the only way I know how, dressed head to toe in black. The skies here always seem to look so dreary, shrouded in grey, which seems to deepen the further on you look. With days like these, it seems unfathomable to wear anything but the prescribed black – although a slick of tangerine nail polish seems enough of a compromise.
