why i do what I do.....

I am now Fashion Director at Glamour magazine but following on from the success of my weekly column in the Sunday Times Style magazine I thought I would bring this page to life every week and also give you the chance to comment. This page is not for me to dictate what you should be wearing but to offer ideas on how to put wearable outfits together. Its not what you wear it's how you wear it!

Modern Bohemia.....

This week you can WIN this cute sixties boxy jacket by Tory Burch all you have to do is leave a comment bellow or Instagram or retweet the blog on Twitter to enter, deadline saturday 23rd may
good luck!











TIP...inspired by the gucci girl from the AW15 show, my look for summer is slightly bohemian and thrown together using colours that clash but are vintage in theme, wearing loose pants with an oversized jumper but the boxy jacket keep the shape tight, opting for a cropped style to allow the layers to be seen from the hems to the sleeve details but a high shine give it a modern touch

TIP... turn a classic tracksuit into a cool trouser shape for summer  in three easy steps: gather at the waist to create shape and show off the ankle the crop is in this summer and for the season ahead, unzip hems to give a bell bottom (another important style detail)and keep things simple with red, white and black only
