Isabel Marant Renell jeans (source) I’m never the first to jump on the bandwagon for the latest “in” thing, or new trend, as I generally take a while to warm up to things. Sometimes I wish this wasn’t the case, as lately all I’ve been thinking about adding to my small jean collection is these Isabel Marant renell jeans, in black.

F21 jumper, Karen Walker blazer, skirt and coat, Topshop heels, YSL arty ring, Mimco necklace, Marc by Marc Jacobs bag Last night I was invited to attend the opening night of the Papershoes Pop-Up store in Wellington, at the Service Depot.

Being practically addicted to list making, I thought I’d share my essentials for winter.

I tend to fold the sleeves up ever so slightly, allowing the sleeves of blouses, jumpers or cardigans to peek…
