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!

New York Fashion Week, Day 4



 

 shop: set in an apartment in Soho the clothes are simple and stylish in neutral tones and you can buy everything in the apartment for interiors and lifestyle not cheap but worth having a look






Lots of loose undo hairdo's this season  




The model of the moment walked at: everything


  


    

Inside the apartment for The Line looks a bit like this

Today's Look



TIP...for the ultimate nod to the seventies try patchwork but in denim like this jacket it keeps it more modern and add a loose tee which dress down a sexy skirt blue cotton and black look great together too

Head to Toe Grey...




TIP...loose grey vest goes perfectly with my grey jeans and top tip the Seventies are looking like they are on their way back so start checking out some straight leg to wide leg trousers like these

jeans marques almeida
shoes celine
bag fendi










Opening Ceremony production a one off play that had an outstanding cast (see below) but included Elle Fanning and Dree Hemingway as the  main characters and JonahHill co wrote the play too...not bad for a sunday night

Blue.....

Blue has become the shade where everything goes from denim to pastels to navy its one of my favourite tones and this week while the weather still hangs on I wanted to wear the lighter shade of blue and give someone a push in the right direction as you can WIN a blue shirt to add to things in your wardrobe by the shirt king's Equipment.  Just retweet the blog or leave a comment below or on my twitter feed @nataliehartley or Instagram @nataliehartleywears to enter!  Deadline is Saturday 6th September...good luck! 




TIP...mens loose cotton boxer shorts are a great shape and perfect alternative to a traditional style and adding this oversized shirts in similar tones gives a slightly boyish twist to a pretty pastel

shirt by equipment
shorts by banana republic
shoes by celine





TIP...a bold ultra blue works really well against the pastel back drop try a cute mini size for day you really don't need all that stuff in your bag do you?




TIP...total opposites but in shoes of blues these are two perfect ways to wear with an outfit like this or even just add either pair to jeans and your blue shirt




This shirt is what you can win this week!




And why not finish the look with this cool stainless steel bangle by the jewellery name to know Maria Black
