Coveting: Everything by Lanvin for H&M
Designer/High Street collaborations are quite rife these days, so much so that it’s not as big a deal as it used to be. H&M often lead the way (Sonia Rykiel for H&M was my most recent favourite) but of course you’ve got Debenhams with their Henry Holland and Julien McDonald collabs, among others. So when...
Coveting: Kurt Geiger Fashionistas Corso Como Shoe
When I went to Fashion’s Night Out a few weeks (months? who knows) ago, aside from frolicking around with free booze and gaping at things I couldn’t afford, I was intrigued and pleasantly surprised at the effort the high street was going to to put on this experiential shopping night. I still haven’t done a...
Found: The Perfect Satchel Bag
Remember my epic post about hunting down all the satchel bags out there, and finding the perfect one? Well, on my recent shopping trip I went and found most of the ones I posted about. Here’s my conclusion: They’re all too damn small. Dimensions on a website are reeally hard to visualise. These are the...
Here comes A/W… And some Birthday buys
In my previous post I talked about my epic hunt/experiment with AW trousers. You know, trousers, remember them? They’re back, and in a big way. During the hunt, I also bought some AW stuff, in a quest to not waste my money in the stuttering and faltering sales on things I don’t actually need. Also...
Trousers are dead. Long live trousers.
I’m a dress and tights girl. All the way. Or shorts and leggings. Basically, I never wear trousers, or even jeans. My last pair of jeans wore out about 8 months ago and I haven’t replaced them. I basically only wear them in the winter anyway; but this year I want to be… less scruffy....

AW Trends: Yumi
As I said in a previous post about Yumi and our AW lookbook, I promised I’d post the trend boards for this season. Mainly because I curated and designed them! So these should be up in my Portfolio soon – I need to make a ‘Graphic Design’ subsection. I can’t publicicse most of the work...
In Search Of…. The Perfect Satchel Bag
This A/W, a key trend will definitely be the Satchel Bag. Why? The Mulberry Alexa, obviously. Everyone wants a piece of that, but most can only afford the high street versions and all their incantations. Everyone wants in. And I really want in. I lug a lot of stuff around with me so I’ve invariably...
Yumi AW10 Lookbook
I don’t really mention it all that often but my day job is Graphic Designer at Yumi/Uttam Boutiqe. I design all the POS for the stores and concessions nationwide, the lookbooks, posters, as well as the website graphics, assist on garment designs and also run the blog and facebook and twitter pages along with the...
