September…
Most sartorially relevant – hashtag most expensive for me AND MR. LUXE – month in the calendar. So let me whet your whistle.
Business bell-sleeves… up top.
Sun’s out, Sienna-X-game-strong, still finding endless combinations to wear these denims… down below.
let me worry about the really important fashion-y things like “is blue the new black”, “will these sleeves make it out of the Sunday roast alive”, “does my bum look big in these shorts”, “are shorts off sick” and my personal fave “have i gone basket-waving, raffia-tote-failingly, Jane Birkin mad”
Answers on a postcard.

in my world.
This is because I committed to limiting my wardrobe down to a small army of ‘basic’ recruits willing to do year round service (thus letting me show you umpteen versatile ways these shorty-shorts can be worn through the winter etc etc ETC…. Already have this long cashmere coatigan on stand-by)
But first
Bell-sleeve knit top by Storets
More gravy-mopping-outrageously-sized sleeves like this one coming soon I promise
Flesh-toned suede mules by Tony Bianco
style hack: look for nude styles that closely match your skin tone if you’re looking to elongate the leg.
Last but no means least; Heidi Klein raffia tote, vintage Levis and my long wefts of mermaid hair.
One of this loyal trio is leaving us soon.
Stay tuned.
