New York and Paris Fashion Weeks AW 2012....Homage to the Umbrella

It has been so rainy in London these last couple of weeks that I felt like posting these drizzly day photographs. Don't get me wrong, I do love London in the Rain but it is nice to see the sun once in awhile :)

p.s. I have more photographs of Peony (in the top photograph) in that outfit which I will share soon.

New York Fashion Week AW 2012...Alison

Model Alison Nix, after Diesel Black Gold, NYC, February 2012.

Love this colour block look on Alison (how cute is her short haircut? there is another photo I took of her backstage at Margaret Howell which shows it more clearly) especially her Carven sweater. I think she has styled it all brilliantly (note the crop pants + boots).

Recreate Alison's Look (kind of):

Carven colour block sweater or Alexander Wang colour block sweater or Rag&Bone Dakota colour block sweater 

3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli croc-print mini satchel

Acne Clover wrap strap boots or ASOS black Albi leather chelsea boot (these also come in a few colours with contrasting inserts - very fun).

Persol round sunglasses

ASOS boyfriend knit beanie

New York Fashion Week AW 2012

I love her wispy, sheer skirt with the heavy jacket and lace-up boots....proving you can wear sheer fabrics even when the temperature is sub-zero. Well, within reason. Heating always helps ;)

Recreate her look (kind of):

American Apparel sheer maxi skirt or ASOS sheer black maxi skirt

Rodarte for Opening Ceremony crochet lace-up booties or Topshop Abbey lace up booties or See by Chloe wooden heeled leather lace-up ankle boots

New York and Paris Fashion Weeks AW 2012....Puppy Love

Just because it's Wednesday...and  sometimes a little puppy love is what you need to get you through the rest of the week.

p.s. the little foot "socks" are to protect paws against the salt (which can burn the paw pads), ice and snow....one woman was at great pains to reassure me she wasn't one of those* people!

p.p.s The dog at the bottom is a Briard - so much personality! Although he did have an obsession with suitcases much to one make-up artist's dismay ;)

*dress up your dog

New York Fashion Week AW 2012

Love her floral jeans/trousers (I can't quite work out if they are jeans or pants). A great way to incorporate florals into your wardrobe, and transition from winter to spring/summer. Throw on a coat or sweater for now, and just a tee-shirt or button-down shirt for when the weather warms up.

Recreate her look (kind of) with some flower power:

Camila and Marc Surrender botanical print trousers, Paige Denim floral skinny jeans,  or ASOS floral print skinny jeans
