With the season on the turn (fashion wise, that is, I can't see the climate perking up any time soon) I feel like a child caught between divorcing parents! where on earth to my loyalties lie? it's incredible what a couple of SS10 collection magazines coming free with the January Issues can do to ones head. Me and Jo spent most of our shift at work yesterday leafing through the Vogue one and dissecting each look, cooing over the models' summery tanned legs and trying on the new sunglasses that have come in.

On the other hand however, I've really enjoyed Winter this year, just getting the knack of my own little 'capsule' wardrobe and this spread with Behati Prinsloo in French ELLE is a further reminder of the success of layering that only the chilly seasons will permit.
For now, I shall enjoy the diplomacy of embracing each season; continuing to wear knits and chunky tights while dreaming of that glorious feeling of sun on skin (oh, remember?..)

  3. It is an astonishing 50 degrees on the upper eastcoast in the US. Crazy right? I love that jumpsuit, I can't get enough of jumpsuits and onesies.
