Paul Smith

Today I am wearing (and chanelling) Paul Smith Spring 2016

To get into my role I spent a good 10 minutes sweeping up. Quite tired now.

just mooching

Wowa. I hear Topshop is opening over on US soil today. You lucky things, get ready for super cool catwalk inspired pieces at great prices... even us label lovers adore Topshop. Oh and good luck with the cat fighting over those geometric print leggings everyone's been talking about. I'm not sure if the Kate Moss collection is going to be available but it's been launched over here today. I love this vintage inspired rose print dress. Should have my paws on one very soon, I love internet shopping, it's so easy peasy.

Today I've been mooching around in these darling peach glasses by Paul Smith and a cute little vintage patchwork thing that I picked up in Morocco. I knicked these beads from my mother. She has all this jewellery from the seventies just lying around waiting to be slipped into my bag, I just couldn't resist!

p.s. just popped a few postcard sets in the shop and one set of greetings cards...

specsy

Apparently the Bloomsbury set meets David Hockney in Paul Smith's new collection encapsulating the creative individualism of London bohemia (phew what a tongue twister!).

I love love love the glasses but of course I don't need them, you know what they say about eating carrots and all. But wearing glasses is so this season, check out Brit lovely Alexa Chung. I have long admired her cute preppy style and these glasses just topped off her look nicely - so chic!

BAD DOGS AND RELUCTANT MEN

Went to meet Sonny in London town on Saturday for the lunchtime opening of a new sushi bar (I just love a bit of raw carrot) we had to leave little Stella at home and when we got back we discovered that she had destroyed my collection of last seasons Chanel sunglasses, you know the ones that only have the shade halfway. I had 15 identical pairs to go with each of my 15 Chanel 07 outfits. I was very upset but I had a tearful telephone conversation with daddy and he said he would replace them for me - am I spoilt?? I don't think so but Stella certainly is, so I'm considering some hired help - only the best for our Stella, step in Tamar Geller, I mean if she's good enough for Oprah!

This is what we wore for the opening. Yes, for the first time I tentatively mixed my labels! I was inspired by Sonny who gets slightly disgruntled when I force him into matching outfits. I'm looking quite glam in my Paul Smith Union Jack dress and here's where it gets interesting my purse is Chanel and my espadrilles are vintage, can you believe it!

Sonny is wearing his favourite vintage RayBan's, chequered vans and a hooded top that hes had for ages. he thinks its from Abercombie and Fitch but can't be certain - he cut the label out because it was itchy.

On Sunday we went to a party to celebrate the end of London fashion week. my shopping list for next season is getting so long that it nearly crashed my new mac - so many clothes so little time! We wore Paul Smith again, its the only label that I can rely on to convince Sonny that matching outfits are not going to make us look like Posh and Becks, anyway that will never happen, Posh just doesn't have my innate sense of style!

see you next time!

SHEEPISHLY YOURS

well well, whats going on here then you might ask? Is Sonny having an affair? Well thats the conclusion I naturally jumped to. I was hopping mad! Fair enough if someone falls out of love (gulp - did I just mention the L word??!?) but surely it's only fair to inform your girlfriend (well I might as well go the whole hog and use the G word as well) rather than being seen in the local rag sporting a new girl on your arm. And a sheep! Oh the shame!

well anyway it turns out that Sonny is totally innocent. Its not my fault that he never mentioned his stepsister (yes his mum is going out with a sheep - nothing wrong with a little crossbreeding I've since learnt!) Sonny had very nicely agreed to accompany his little sister to the knitting world champagne reception. Apparantly she didn't have anyone to follow and would have got lost if it were'nt for her heroic brother. hmm very heroic!

DOING THE HOP

Sonny and I on our way to the annual vegetable appreciation society annual picnic wearing Paul Smith where we danced the afternoon away on the bandstand (doing the bunny hop of course - a variation of the lindy hop)

heres our outfits as seen on the catwalk
