Doctor, Doctor...

I got a bad case of loving you...

Yep it's the bag style of the season and whilst they look super chic on the catwalk my only concern on catching a ride on the 'doctor tote wagon' was how to incorporate it into my style.  So here's an idea on what I'd wear, a kind of transeasonal look too with all this weird weather and I love the crop down boots with the silver embellishment, a definite item on this week's wish list!

1. Grey Jumper Kain £305 Net-a-Porter

2. Black leather Bag Zara £89.99 Zara

3. Rust Jacket Chalayan £1060 Net-a-Porter

4.Silver Necklace Hannah Martin £330 Hannah Martin

5. Black leather boots Jeffrey Campbell £105 Office

6. Cut off denim shorts Ksubi £135.50 Ksubi

Space Cowboy

A little Monday afternoon pick me up and dream wish list on this miserable day! I'm working on Net-a-Porter's trend presentation for F/W at the moment and am loving the Futuristic trend seen at Proenza, Wang and Hakaan.  The above is my little twist on the trend.  By adding the A-mazing cowboy boots from Isabel Marant's new collection the outfit is less 'Beam me up Scotty' and more urban and wearable - I'm not about to go out in a mirrored visor or crystal embellished eyebrows a la Chanel!  To keep it cool and laid back go for metallics with the crinkle effect leather like this Acne clutch, then the look doesn't become too shiny and new but more relaxed and edgy (just a little tip!)

1. Silver leather bag £190 Acne at net-a-porter.com

2. leather and suede boots, pre order at net-a-porter

3. White accetate watch $150 Nixon

4. Trousers soon to be at TRF Zara

6.White leather jacket £239 Studio at Zara

Mules

So there I am just casually scrolling through the Asos website (when I should have been working) and what should I happen apon but these drop dead gorgeous mules.  Not only do they hit the monochrome trend bang on the nail but hello shiny, shiny toe cap! I can't think of a better transeasonal shoe - especially with this (ahem!) "Summer" we're having! Boyfriend jeans, leather jacket, grey tee and BOOM you are hot to trott my friends.

Grab a pair quick before they fly (P.S they come in black too!)

Mules £45 Asos

Sunday's Wishlist

My debit card would be quaking in it's little plastic boots if it could see this post!  This time it's all about the details.  The slippers are my absolute favourite (and the main reason for all the quaking!) The heels have crystals set into them and added to the velvet and brocade they just purr 'take me home'!  And believe me if I could I most definitely would - is it illegal to sell a kidney for shoes do you think? The ear cuff is fortunately a little more within my price range as is the bag.  I love the aztec feel to the cuff which would add a great edge to even the chicest of outfits, I'd flick al my hair over to one side a la Erin Wasson and show this bad boy off for all to see.  And finally the bag. Again it's all in the details, the cut off corner takes this bag from everyday to unique and so subtly, I love it.  The interior holds yet more treats with grey and tan lining edged with non green zippers and tags.  There's more to all these pieces then meets the eye, and that's what makes them so desirable.

Red

So I've told you all before that I'm not really a dress person!  But last night I had the opportunity to glam up for my friend's engagement party and I thought - why not?!  And thought I'd share my outfit choice with you lovely lot.  As the dress is fairly feminine I wanted to harden the look and did so by adding a chunky heel and studded bag.  The tassel is actually one bought in the Morrocan souks of Marrakesh and I think it adds a more bohemian edge to the bag.  I love the color of this dress, red is so eye catching and powerful and it genuinely made me feel more confident whilst wearing it.  It's a massive trend for A/W so grab something in any shade, from vermillion to burgundy.  Red is definitely not dead!

Let it be known, I'm a bit of a magpie, especially when it comes to a bit of Aztec inspired jewellery.  This little beaut caught my eye when I was browsing through Obey's jewellery pages (definately worth a look) and at only £40 it's something to snap up and sling on for effortless summer dressing. I'm envisaging a low neck white tee with ripped to shreds shorts and a loose waistcoat or teamed with a little black bikini for perfect, poolside posing!

Even though I'm not especially blessed with long legs, most of my life is lived in flats, being a naturally clumsy person heels are an added obstacle to me!   So when doing a spot of freelancing at Net-a-Porter and happening upon these great summer flats from Cobra Society, it was natural for me to fall in love.  The colour, the pattern, the steel toe detail - there is nothing that doesn't work about these shoes.   OK so there is one thing, at £295 they're a little out of my price range but a girl can dream can't she?!

If I could only choose one clothing company to wear all my life I think I would have to pick  US brand FreePeople.  Unfortunately the only way to get hold of their stuff is online (if anyone from FP is reading - a UK store would be much appreciated|) but the site is jam packed with amazing pieces.  If, like me, you're a bit of a hippy at heart then FreePeople have it all, lace flares, fringe bags and my fascination du jour, this amazing jacket made from recycled materials.   Wear with a pair of tie dyed jeans and a grey slouchy tank and being Eco has never looked do good!

An added extra - I've had this on repeat whilst compiling this post. Muse, model, musician Lou Doillon has it all! Lou Doillon I.C.U
