The last photo is my most recent outfit inspiration. I love the pretty pastel skirts with biker leather. I paired a pink Victorian underskirt with my biker boots and felt great. I can't remember who took this but I tore it out of Vogue ages ago, from a story where they got people to choose there favourite photo of all time, I think it;s one of mine. I'd love to stick it to my wall with all my other inspiring pictures but I like the photo on it's reverse too much! M X

I loved 'The Accidental Stylist' story in Elle. Everything looks so fresh. The leather Carven shorts and navy Stella M dress are amazing M X

I've been so lazy about blogging recently, and it's getting me down. My blog's been verging away from fashion for months and months and that's what I'm really interested in. So I've found myself matching my dog's jumpers with my clothes, subconsciously of course. I don't feel as guilty buying clothes for him as I do for myself. So far this winter, he's been bought a cable knit grey jumper and a waxed cotton, sheepskin lined coat. He's such a babe.

I mostly can't get him to stay still enough when he's out and about but I managed to catch this on my iPhone. He definitely needs a more stylish lead and collar though, waiting til he's old enough to not chew everything up...M X
P.S. I've been obsessing over our beautiful sunsets these last few weeks

Whoopie Pies and Leopard Eyes

Last night I went to Violet for the launch of Claire's new book - The Whoopie Pie Book - you can buy it in store (definitely worth it) or from Amazon. The book looks amazing, with great pictures and the most delicious recipes; I know because I've tried them. YUM. The pumpkin one was particularly spectacular but my mum swears by the quince. Anyway distracting me from my stomach full of whoopie pies and homemade pizzas, were my sister's eyes. Tabby is 13 and full of weird and wonderful little surprises...When I arrived last night she'd painted her eyelids leopard print. I thought my mum must have done it for her, but she'd like to point out she designed and drew them completely of her own accord. It looked really cool and especially striking because she has two different coloured eyes: one blue, one brown. She's keen for me to explain the steps -
1 - She covered her eyelids in her darkest foundation
2 - She painted leopard print on top using a black liquid eyeliner
3 - She dabbed a bit of darker brown sparkle to each mark
So here they are, M X
