I love the disheveled look of these white Isabel Marant jeans. When I first saw them in store last year I wasn’t sure how they would look on, but they are actually pretty amazing! The frayed detail is quite subtle, and when styled in the way Clare has, they’re more casual than anything else. I also love the contrast created by her Amy Kaehne shirt; it pretty much sums up the exact colour combination I want to be wearing this winter. Plenty of fresh whites and rich burgundy hues!
I saw Elisse at a launch earlier this week, and in a sea of carefully considered outfits, her style just felt so relaxed and at-ease. I’m not saying I don’t like dressing up or having an excuse to wear my favourite heels, but sometimes less is more. What struck me about her was the paired-back simplicity; a quiet confidence that drew just me in. And with her dark-rimmed glasses and buttoned up shirt, Elisse’s look really was perfection!
There’s nothing better than a good shirt. So simple, tailored and easy to wear. It’s not really my usual style, but I just love the clean lines and delicate fabric. And there’s something very Celine about the geometric shapes which I definitely don’t mind either. I’m sure I wax lyrical about the perfect shirt all the time, but you can never get too much of a good thing. Plus, these two are a little bit different. I picked them up at a nameless boutique overseas last year, and even though it seemed excessive at the time, I’m glad I brought them both. I generally play it pretty safe with my wardrobe, so it’s fun to mix it up every now and then. Even it is just with a two-tone shirt.
I met Shanna over the weekend while she was in town for one very cool campaign shoot. At just 17 there’s no doubt this Adelaide beauty has crazy amounts of potential. With her pocahontas-esque hair, willowy limbs and gap toothed grin she’s got all of the desired model traits on lock down. It was pretty funny listening to Shanna abbreviate everything in her teenage specific lingo. I’m not old by any means, but it’s like they have a language of all their own. Regardless, I was super impressed with her work. She’s so comfortable and strong in front of the camera, with the ability to morph into exactly who she needed to be. Such a babe, that’s for sure.
I love a good stripe. Who doesn’t? There’s no doubt my collection of stripes is looking pretty healthy these days. I’m a massive sucker for classics; they’re just so damn versatile. Each one seems to serve a different purpose, despite the fact they are all essentially a variation on the Breton stripe. Or maybe that’s just my obsession talking.
I have to admit I’ve claimed more than a few of my boyfriends jumpers as my own – this one included. The fit is always so much more relaxed than anything designed for woman. There’s something about the slouchy comfort that just can’t be beat.
What struck me about Jenny wasn’t any particular piece of clothing (although her burgundy loafers were pretty great), but the effortless sense of style she projected. Just relaxed and easy. It should be said I caught her while she was working (Jenny is an incredible hair stylist) so it was only natural that she was dressed pretty casual. But I prefer it this way; the simplicity of it all. Plus, she has such beautiful hair it kind of balances out her androgynous style.
I have to say, as someone with no tattoos, I was pretty taken with all of Jenny’s. She has quite a few, and every one just fit so perfectly with her style and personality. One cool lady.
