Mischief

Apologies I've been a bad blogger recently, the festive season is now in full swing and life has gottena  little on top of me...

A little inspiration for you. Racing off to my office Christmas party now (go go go!) but promise to post some outfit pics asap....

The temperature has just suddenly dropped in London which means the only thing leather, thick, thick tights and vintage fur (and a thick, knitted vest!) will do.

A quick lunchtime post, super rushed as trying to brave the cold. Wearing the perfect leather skirt kindly borrowed from my editor at work-perfect length and sits just right on the waist/hips so its the perfect level to do the half tuck-in. A hard feat when it comes to little leather skirts!

Teabreak

So, that very stylish friend of mine Charlie who works at Deuxieme (see below post 'LurexLurex') I was telling you about...well, she is also a very talented TV presenter and has recently started an exclusive interview series called Teabreaks.  Up first, of-the-moment London-based band The Vaccines. Recently returned from touring with The Artic Monkeys, The Vaccines share a pot of tea and chat with Charlie.

Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of The Vaccines, and if you're not, well...why not?!

There are a whole load more of interviews with bands and musicians to come as part of the Teabreak series so stay tuned!

Yet another set of blurred iPhone photos (I promise I'll get back on the camera soon, just having too much fun playing with my new toy) from this weekend..

Wearing my new red lurex Joseph dress I picked up from favorite 2nd-hand designer shop Deuxieme in London (which I pop into far too much as my very stylish, good friend Charlie works there and always has a load of cool stuff picked out ready to tempt me).  This festive find had it's first outing on Saturday night for a big night out for a friend's birthday... Worn with Kurt Geiger boots, ebay-find belt and silver foil nails from Asos.

The Pants

 

A couple of hazy iphone shots of last nights get-up wearing my new (very squeaky!) Gap burgundy leather trousers. I went to a Gap bloggers breakfast on Thursday for the launch of the brand's collaboration with Isabel Marant for a limited edition T-shirt which supports the  RED World Aids day. The t-shirts are in store now and support such a worthy cause so please go and buy one if you can. Plus, who wouldn't want a little piece of Marant in their wardrobe...?

Anywho, Denise from Gap quickly gave me the head's up that there were a few pairs of these leather trousers left in store so I had to investigate...To be honest, I was sold as soon as I heard the words 'burgundy leather'! I promptly ran downstairs, tried them on, fell in love and dashed to the till. An impulse buy yes, but when you find leather trousers that fit this good, and only one pair left in your size, logic and common sense have no business interfering! 

I teamed them with Topshop heels, Cos white t-shirt, belt from ebay and my vintage fur coat.
