Snap Happy

A few more snaps from Fashion Week....Do I have an obsession about feet that I don't know about?  Apologies for excessive shoe shots! The jumper in the top look is from Zara and is a firm favorite already.  I never thought a polo neck was something that would make you feel good rather than wanting to curl up by an open fire, but it really delivered.  There's something really comforting about wearing something so chunky and oversizd on top when you go for a short short skirt with boots. It kind of takes the edge off as I for one sometimes feel a bit exposed when flashing a lot of leg. 

Now just catching up on Zzzs before heading to Paris bright and early on Monday.  This heat wave is throwing packing planning into chaos. As soon as you get your head around chunky knits, coats and generally wrapping up for winter, the British weather hits you with a 28 degree curve ball. I'm definitely going to be leaving a little room in the case for some vintage finds and maybe some Marant...It would be rude not to, non?

Pierre Balmain feat Abbey Lee Kershaw

Balmain's new video promo for its new younger, diffusion line Pierre Balmain featuring Abbey Lee and her boyfriend and band mate Matthew Hutchinson. Shot and directed by Inez and Vinoodh, the video is the first of a set of the 3 for the new label with future videos set to feature other of-the-moment babes...Amazing music from Kershaw's band Our Mountain just tops of the Oh-so-cool vibe. If you ask me, videos are the way to go with advertising, you just get so much more of the mood and an aspirational feeling. Plus, they're fun and allow us to see our favorite models in motion, doing what they do best.

Look out for videos two and three on Sunday and Monday!

But in the meantime thank you to the following for the shots.

Found this today-a little detail shot by colleague Katherine took of me for a blog a little while ago (back when it was sunny and warm and I still had the remnants of a tan).  Been manic with fashion week this past week but stick with me as I have been taking (and stealing) some pics for an LFW post going up tomorrow....

Float my Boat

It's so autumnul already I'm feeling pretty blissed out holed up at home in the countryside with the remote control, a pile of magazines and my cat for company.  Just had a quick trip out to get a new ipod after mine died after 6 good years (mourning all the oldies but goodies I've lost), and

  typically got sidetracked in Zara and, blame the new season, picked up two chunky knits. Finally went for that neon pink number I've been procrastinating over for weeks now, and the other is black and white speckled with a turtleneck.  Makes me feel a bit like Claire Danes in My So-called Life and  that can only be a good thing...

Sorry for being a bad blogger recently...Fashion Week is on the approach and I promise to post some detaily/outfitty shots as the weekend approaches.  Lots more posts to come to stick with me.

Hope you're all having a great weekend.
