Style Salute: Kirsten Dunsr

The queen of monochrome & minimalism, knows what suits her and looks amazing. Some may say safe & predictable, I say classic.

Indestructable Tote

My first thought when I saw this Leghila bag was- that's a really nice bag. Then I realised what it was made out of, neoprene (wet suit fabric, I had to google it) and was even more impressed.



Neoprene is machine washable, durable and available in a huge range of colours. Marc Jacobs has a range of iPad covers in neoprene, and Abdul Koroma & Andrew Jones used neoprene at LFW, so I think we could be seeing a lot more of it. 

It's such an unusual fabric it works best in simple shapes so those brave enough could easily sew their own, plenty of neoprene available in fabric stores.

Happy Halloween

I'm having a low key Halloween this year so have been searching for a costume which is spooky, fun but low-key. Then I decided to forgo the costume all together and go for gothic glam make-up with these Face Lace stick ons...

Trend: Skeleton Clocks

Picture via Apartment Therapy
This clock is the perfect alternative to a framed picture or canvas, and would be a real talking point for guests.

The size of the clock is not overpowering, as the cutaway face allows the wall colour to peek through. This also makes them surprisingly affordable- I found some great clocks on Amazon for £15 - £20.

Luck On Display

This reminds me of the rose in Beauty and the Beast, there's something quite magical about the display case, and if the wishbone brings luck every house should have one!
