Fashion Week- SS15; Where Are All The Wild Things?
Alas! The Fashion Month has come to an end, another season to look forward to, or not as the case may be for most. The month went on forever, but the boredom set in for some of us, around day three of NYFW, when it quickly became obvious that there wouldn’t be much newness to be had.…

Coccinelle- A Distinguished Simplicity
My first part time job was in McDonald’s, I lasted about two weeks because even though I’m a huge foodie, working in a restaurant did not appeal to me. Especially on a busy Saturday afternoon, shout out to all the waiters and waitresses working it through rush hour saturday. Fast forward a few years later and…

PFW SS15- Chloe & Valentino; Sweet Dreams Are Made Of These
Fashion week, yes, its over. Thanks heavens for that. I wasn’t a fan of this round of fashion weeks. After New York where the boredom set in, I tuned off and went away on vacation, returned to even more of a circus, and it felt like it went on forever. We’ll get to that later. Despite…

NYFW SS15- Debuts, Moods, and Basic Bitches
Whilst some designers were not in the mood for change, others were happy to embrace it and adapt it to their collection.

NYFW; SS15… The Narrative
I finally caught up with the season so far, or as caught up as I’m gonna be, and I’m feeling a little bit meh. Some or most of what I’ve seen feels stuck, like we never moved on from last season. I think New York will do that to you because it is the commercial…

The Summer Wardrobe
It’s officially summer, so what are we wearing? Clothes. I know…duh. Summer is a tricky season for most. In Autumn and spring you know you are layering light, in the winter you’re bulking up, but for summer you want something light without having to risk going naked because its so hot. You still want to look…

Couture- Fall ’14
When it comes to couture, I have a love-hate-misunderstood relationship with it. I expect couture to be big and bold, and detailed and confusing, and intricate and wild, and everything besides simple. It is the one place I expect a designer to go far out wild and crazy a la Gaultier, because couture is not for…

Zashadu- A Sustainable Cool
There is nothing I love more than a handbag, which I am sure you know by now, and whilst I am a sucker for Marc Jacobs, McQueen etc. I love stepping off the beaten path and discovering a handbag designer with a collection after my own heart. Few things make me as happy. Zashadu is such…
