Les Chiffoniers

I am absolutely in love with this top by Les Chiffoniers. I saw it in the More Dash than Cash supplement with Vogue this month. I did try to take a photo of the magazine but it didn't really show you the quality and detail photographed twice. I know it's all part of reading Vogue, lusting over the beautiful designer creations, which I love, but whatever dash is, it's worth more than cash! Hence the unrequited love I'm experiencing with the gorgeous creation above. But I forgive them, there's so much more to Vogue. The photo shoots are sometimes out of this world and it's a very romantic magazine, especially the way the articles are written. The words are almost like lyrics, and encourage the reader to imagine and lose themselves a little. I like it, it's like a happy fashion day dream. Does anyone else know what I mean? But back to the item above. I flipped to this page and was just like oh my god! It looks like an amazing over size, ribbed wool jumper but it's made of the most buttery soft looking, creamy pink leather instead! Therefore catapulting it from comfy and casual, to both of those things plus an edge.

Fantasy shopping - Net-a-Porter edit

I don't know why I do it to myself but I can't resist a rummage through Net-a-Porter every now again. Everything on there is just so beautiful, here's a top ten list of my favourite items. Yes, I know, some of them are eye wateringly expensive but fashion is all about fantasy after all. I can't decide on a favourite, I'm pretty much in love with every single item. And they weirdly all go together. Like if you added a grey t-shirt to the mix (to tuck into the skirts, or possibly even under the Helmet Lang dress?) you'd have a very glamorous capsule wardrobe indeed.

1. Metallic leather pumps - Chloe

2. Embellished printed satin dress - Proenza Schouler

3. Ghent fine-knit cashmere and silk-blend sweater - The Row

4. Ombré silk cocoon coat - Burberry Prosum

5. Jacquard dress - Helmut Lang

6. Patchwork cotton landscape dress - Vika Gazinskaya

7. Studded patent-leather flats - Valentino

8. Pandora Perspex clutch - Charlotte Oylmpia

9. Panelled satin skirt - Proenza Schouler

10. Lace-appliquéd taped silk-organza skirt - Christopher Kane

Shoe love

I love these shoes from ASOS! They are so gorgeous. I love the Perspex heel and the colours. Total statement shoes. They look really expensive as well, plus they are on sale! I really need to start wearing heels again, I've lived in flats this winter. Thanks to JW Anderson for Topshop loafers, and now they are coming in pink as well for the second collection (due on the 15th!) I'll probably be wearing flats all summer too.

I can't wait for summer. I feel like I've had cold ankles for ages (all my trousers are cropped for some reason). It even snowed where I am the other day but it was all slush by the afternoon. Which is kind of good actually, slush is much less slippery than ice. The last time it snowed and it all turned to ice, literally the first step I took out of my drive at 6.30 am in the dark with my suitcase found me falling (like Bambi taking his first steps) on my bum. At least no one was around to see it I guess!

My wishlist

This is my current wish list. As usual filled mostly with things I can't afford haha. If only I could make all of these things magically appear in front of me. I'll try it. Appear.....err....now! *looks around* Damn it! How many times do I need to read Harry Potter before I get my own magic powers? How disappointing. This is just like my 11th birthday all over again. (I'm still waiting for my letter Dumbledore). Another thing I'm still waiting for? January payday! Anyone else stuck in the longest and coldest month of their life? Please, please, please ASOS, have those boots in a size 8 till the end of the month! What's on your wishlist at the moment?

1. Burgundy boots - ASOS
2. Beanie - ASOS
3. Leather skirt - Elin Kling x Guess by Marciano
4. Skirt - Tibi

Boyfriend Jeans

I'm a little obsessed with boyfriend jeans right now. I do love my skinnies but I can't resist trying out a new silhouette and what better time than now; the wider leg is making a come back for spring. I think there's an androgyny-vibe to a looser fit trouser and I like that. It's subtly sexy in the way that it doesn't reveal the shape of the leg so obviously and I think suggestion beats skin every time.

Golden Lane

I am in love with this bag from Golden Lane by Chris&Tibor! It's totally up my street, structural, geometric, and shiny!
