GOING FOR GREY

Wearing: A.F. Vandevorst dress, Hussein Chalayan X PUMA shoes

I only recently found out that Hussein Chalayan was the creative director for PUMA! When choosing some pieces from the PHC collection I felt I couldn't pass up these beautiful grey leather high tops, availably exclusively at the PUMA Carnaby Street store. Having a look through his past collections for the brand, it's definitely the shoes that are continually catching my eye; minimal aesthetic but practical and comfortable, it's a perfect match I think!

Thanks to Jen for the photos! 

LIFE'S A BEACH

Wearing: PUMA hat, Yohji Yamamoto trench, Alexander Wang tank, Jil Sander trousers

Last Saturday I headed to the Roundhouse in Camden, for their Pop-up beach with some friends. It was insanely hot (I soon ditched the black trench), so we grabbed a jug of Pimms and some deckchairs and lay out to sizzle. It as pretty surreal being surrounded by sun and sand, with London's city scape just about visible over the pastel crates, and yet still very relaxing. 

The beach is open for August so head down there when you have a few free hours. There's quite a family vibe in the morning but as soon as the 2 for 1 cocktails start, people soon crawl out of the woodwork.  

Thank you to Matthew for the shots of moi 

HIGH SUMMER

Wearing: PUMA top, skirt made by me, Celine shoes, Moxham bracelet, Dominic Jones rings, Miu Miu sunglasses

The weathers been pretty amazing this last week, I got to enjoy it by heading down to the countryside mid week for my Brother's graduation/Mum's birthday. I spent a lot of time enjoying the sun in my Auntie's beautiful garden with a glass of wine. One day holiday! 

All I want to be wearing right now is a white tee or simple shirt, I knew when I picked out this PUMA top it would be perfect for the heat, as well as being drawn the to the perforated back and sleeve panels, which felt like perfect SS12 wear. I'm also really into the unusual neckline, that and it's increasable which is perfect for me. As for the skirt, I made it in half an hour before leaving for the train; you know when you need something and you just don't have it? I need to do this 30 minute makeover more often!

Thanks to my Mum, the birthday girl for helping me out with these shots!
