Buy it now: Charlotte Tilbury Norman Parkinson collection



Jerry hall By norman Parkinnson Vogue

My personal favourite from the Charlotte Tilbury Norman Parkinson collection has to be the Matte Revolution lipstick in 1975 Red. It’s a great ‘colour-pop’ shade; well pigmented, beautifully formulated (matte but non-drying) and in stunning weighty golden packaging, so I think it’s worth the spendy £23 price. (more…)



What to steal from the menswear shows: Marni ss16



Marni SS16 menswear

The Marni colour palette is so on point – I mean, these blues and ochres! I will be stealing what I can from these colour combos as well as the loosely tucked-in tops (a big theme at Prada too) and the boxy shirt jackets. I really want a boxy leather shirt now… (more…)



Buy it now: New in for autumn



JW Anderson spoon pendants

It’s a bit cloudy today so I’m doing a new-in autumn shopping round-up. Starting with these stunning J.W. Anderson spoon pendants (above). These have just gone into Selfridges and J-W-Anderson.com – How delicious do they look? Also piquing my interest are the shoes and loafers from Dries Van Noten and Paul Smith, which I would wear with grey wool socks and my cropped tailored Joseph trousers.

Knitwear is a bit of a fetish of mine and the best bits tend to get snapped up fast. I love the school uniform colours of the Valentino sweater and the Marni mustard ombre menswear knit. Either would be a nice partner to the Dolce & Gabbana sheer tie neck blouse. Finally, you can’t go wrong with a camel coat – this one from Isabel Marant is relatively affordable at £620…
