Chanel's Little Black Jacket


“That innocuous cardie turned out to be fashion’s equivalent of the atom. And Coco split it. First, she took its pockets, which were perfectly positioned far enough down the front panels to encourage a woman to thrust her hands in them confidently, and placed them in corresponding places on jackets. Prior to Coco, women did not thrust, and pockets were for show – at least they were in the bourgeois wardrobe.” Lisa Armstrong, 12th October 2012.
 
One of the best exhibitions I've seen in a long time at The Saatchi Gallery.

Verity P

I commissioned my friend Alex from Alex Made Me Do It to do a print for Verity (check her out on her blog theydontknowyet.com) for her birthday, here is the result I hope she likes it!
 

Eley Kishimoto

During Vauxall Fashion Week I went to see Eley Kishimoto’s exhibition- Living with Patterns.
 
The collection was held in the really cool coverted warehouse style building store Aram.
 
I loved their collaberation with Clarks some of the shoes were super cool with amazing prints.







Berlin

Just got back from an amazing 4 days in Berlin.
 
We stayed in a really cool boutique hotel the Michel Berger and I urge anyone going to Berlin to stay there!
 
Berlin is probably one of the only cities in Europe that I would live in.
 
The food was amazing and we drank way to much beer!
 
I love how laid back the city is and the street art is incredible. I've already booked a flight back...see you soon Berlin.
