New York Fashion Week AW 2012...Andie

Andie Arthur, after Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti, NYC, February 2012.

I am a big fan of the tuxedo stripe pant (see my post on the lovely Natalie Hartley here) and these Rag & Bone jeans are a brilliant, versatile interpretation of the trend. Dress them down with flats (a brogue perhaps?) and a blazer for day and for night, wear a leg-lengthening pair of heels.

Recreate Andie's Look (kind of):

Rag & Bone/Jean The Tuxedo skinny jeans (slim stripe), black and blush (wider stripe) or charcoal grey and neon (slim stripe)

Rag & Bone Classic Newbury booties

p.s. Love the way Andie is joyfully swinging around that Celine bag! I probably would be doing that as well if I owned one ;)

London Fashion Week AW 2012....Backstage at Margaret Howell

Backstage at Margaret Howell, London, Sunday 19 February 2012.

Low ponytails pulled effortlessly to one side under pom pom topped Tam o' Shanter's and low-riding beanies, freshly cut slices of crimson streaked blood orange and wedges of crisp winter apples, sleepy eyed models sipping welcome cups of freshly brewed coffee (show start time is 9am), boxes of brown and black preppy penny loafers, utilitarian canvas backpacks, refined twinsets, knee-length gently pleated skirts and mannish blazers (evoking images of the young Mitford sisters in the 1930's), heavy wool military-inspired coats.....and one Paddington Bear navy knee-length duffel coat, flushed rosy cheeks (a brisk walk in the country on a winter's day perhaps?), wool pants with front pockets and track-pant hems, tales of acting and photographs (we loved seeing you back on the runway this season Dorothea Barth Jorgensen).....These Are a Few of My Favourite Things from backstage at Margaret Howell AW 2012.
