As all good The Craft fans know, Halloween is *debatably* the best festival of the year. Think trick-or-treating, Dead rappers specials, Boom nail art and dancing under a full moon to a mashed-up Bauhaus vs. RiRi soundtrack. Yeah you gotta go to work the next morning wearing sunglasses and sporting a few mysterious bites on your […]
By all accounts, this summer has been a dizzying fashion roller coaster. From 20’s flapper dresses to 60’s mono mini’s and a *WHATEVER everyone’s doing it anyway* rehash of 90’s grunge, there was something for everyone. Except, perhaps the grown-up. The grown-up (yep that’s us, kids) fatigued by ironic designer motifs, skorts and floral DM’s. […]
Most of us have about three interchangeable summer looks that actually look passable outside the house. Most likely these consist of denim shorts, ubiquitous tea dresses and generic jersey. Take action now if you have the above sartorial yawns on rotation and break predictable summer dressing habits with a few easy style swaps… Trade denim […]
From midnight to baby blue shades, working blue tonally all over is a big story next season. Denim (duh!) is the most obvious entry point and the AW13 shows show us how to work it. James Long gave us boyish, boxy denim shapes and contrast fabrics such as rubber and mohair. Turn-ups, tapestry and cropped jean […]
I still, even at the age of… 29 *cough, splutter* get the Back to Skool buzz in August. A craving for winter boots, wool coats and new stationary. I remember making my sisters scream with hilarity because I bought a pair of suede knee high boots and a faux fur coat (well, it was 1996) […]
WAR. WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Well, OK, something. Camouflage. It’s good for camo. And while that whole face-painted-as-leaves look never QUITE worked for me (although I have rocked a similar look stumbling out of Faces nightclub at 3am), grunge is BACK in fashion. *Licks purple lipstick off teeth. Squints through round mirrored […]
So… I am recently back at work (well temporarily, at least) after a few months ‘out’ (ahem!) and have realised my working wardrobe is severely lacking. I have been falling back on my fail safe uniform of coloured jeans, grey marl tees (the best invention EVER), jacket and heels. I need something new, something FRESH… […]
I’ve said it before. I’ll say it again. I’ve got a somewhat ‘addictive’ personality and I tend to get obsessed with things for a short, intense period of time just to drop ’em like the proverbial hot patootie and move onto my next Big Thing. Luckily, I haven’t applied this to anything illegal yet, like […]
