SOS

Do any of you fashion-fiends know where I can find the following: spotty pantyhose, tan brogues & a breton/matelot stripe top (navy and cream)???

I'm desperate! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Boys And Girls

I love to contrast an uber-girly dress like a floral or an angelic white lace with a big manly jacket in perfectly dour grey tweed. The femininity and innocence plays off the masculine boxiness perfectly - toning the connotations of each down a notch. Also love to ground these looks with some playfully ironic "sensible" shoes.

4/09/09: Net-A-Porter Classics

I think my brain gets a little fatigued from the constant onslaught of print, studs, denim, leather, fur etc that I feed it. Some times it just needs a cool breath of air in the form of simple classics - that lack all the bells and whistles, but are all the better for it.

It's very much "borrowed from the boys" with perfect shirts, cool slouchy jackets and flat shoes, but is feminised with elements like a tight leather skirt just peeping from your shirt tails.

I am undoubtably a die-hard Chloe fan . I love the mix of femininity, tailoring, quirkiness, simplicity and naivety. The colour palettes are also to die for. The label has gotten ever stronger since Hannah MacGibbon came on board.

I love the idea of mixing their quirkier pieces - like jacquard print pants and a shearling jacket with simple basics like a jersey tank and brogues.

2/09/09: Net-A-Porter

Classic, boyish dressing executed in simple but quirky pieces is my ultimate go-to style when I can't think what to wear - and it's also one of my favorite looks. Skinny statement pants in leather or a print, topped with a loose tee or jersey - all finished off with run-around flat shoes (I spend most of my life at uni - and my days usually end with running for the bus, therefore heels/wedges are generally out).
