Wearing: Miguelina lace jumpsuit (Net-A-Porter Sale or on Shopbop), Star Mela embellished clutch, Windsor Smith sandals (similar here), Jennifer Zeuner Mini Eye & Hamsa Necklace, Tai Infinity Necklace, Elizabeth and James ring, Jennifer Myer ring. There is no denying that my wardrobe has recently become a jumpsuit only zone. I find that playsuits and jumpsuits have much more personality and functionality than any dress. Although this lace jumpsuit isn’t the most versatile piece away from the beach or poolside being sheer crochet, it was my personal favourite…

Nourish
Cold Tuesday mornings… not a lot can tempt me out of bed at 6am unless it’s the cookbook launch of fitness guru Lorna Jane.

A cookbook is packed with delicious recipes firmly focusing on nourishment rather than dieting. It included recipes for breakfast, lunches, dinners, deserts, snacks, smoothies, elixirs and incorporates mean planners and tips for establishing healthy eating habits, yet steers firmly aways …

it’s beginning to look a lot like. . .
hello hello!well, believe it or not, i am STILL nursing this cold, and starting to forget what it feels like to have a nose that isn’t runny, and a head that isn’t almost too heavy for its neck. one of my readers, lauren, pointed out that i shouldn’t nap in the afternoon, and i think she’s right – unfortunately i’ve become stuck in this awful cycle of wake up super early & tired, work for 8 or 9 hours, become exhausted, go home, nap, wake up for dinner and find myself unable …

Eighties Indo
channelling my inner 80’s streak today with a little fluro printed Kenzo singlet and some high waisted black and white printed shorts. Reflective sunglasses seemed only a natural add on for this look, but why stop there! Bold orange pumps finish this fun, almost miami vice inspired look perfectly. As I’m in Bali, opting for havaianas may be the safest way of getting around the streets, but you get that idea that a simple look can be transformed with just a simple coloured heel. Hard to believe I’ve been in …

Stylist. Contributor for Harpers Bazaar Russia. I first bumped into Aziza at NYFW last winter. We started following each other eventually on Instagram. I loved her high/low boyish feminine style. When I saw her Instagram wearing a Trash and Vaudeville leather jacket I thought; ah her too! Fast forward to about one month ago and I bumped into her in…
