OOTD | Channeling Chanel

I must admit this is the second time I've played around with this amazing dogtooth suit from Rosie Fortescue's collection. The first outfit I put together was very safe - I love it, but looking back it's much more obviously and formal. I personally prefer making this dogtooth suit more casual with a white tee and these amazing silver shoes. I wore this outfit to Fashion Week and got photographed for Vogue Japan, which was very exciting for me, so I hope you like how I styled it too :)

I thought I'd show it how I styled it a few weeks ago - as you can see it makes the suit look totally different. Which way do you prefer it, I'd love to hear your thoughts?

OOTD | London Fashion Week 2

My second change of the day at fashion week and I still wanted to keep it casual. Instead of laid back 90s, I decided to step back into the 60's with some mega flares. I haven't worn flares since I was a teenager, but I mixed them with a crop to keep the look fresh and current. I also discovered a very good tip - get an identical pair of flats and heels so when your feet get tired towards the end you outfit barely suffers :)

I matched my shoes, clutch, lipstick, and SW3 bangle - I like the subtlety of the co-ordination and it jazzes up (I hate that expression but I can't think of an alternative?) the outfit.

This outfit saw me through work - I presented at PPQ with Claire's and will do a blog post on it soon - and I sat FROW at the PPQ launch. I didn't do shows in the afternoon because I needed to find a puppy sitter. It's like having a baby!
