– Not feeling like Spring lately in NYC…still appropriately sweater-weather most days…cue my favorite knit working overtime into the Spring season. Slouchy, oversized and trans-seasonal. Done, done and done! Shop all the color below. –

Iconic Cashmere

by FIGTNY

In partnership with Uniqlo Iconic Cashmere – You had me at cashmere! Road testing my new, 100% cashmere, Uniqlo crewneck in my favorite New York neighborhood, Soho. While I’m a firm believer no cashmere is bad cashmere, there are some better than others. What makes this Uniqlo knit stand out to me? I love […]

Luxe Black Layers

by FIGTNY

Luxe Black Layers – Labels like Gucci and Balenciaga make up some of my investment wardrobe pieces, but when spending more than usual, I never shop trend and stick to classics. Think black ankle boots and chain crossbags, a simple oversized knit and distressed denim… key items with longevity that are basic (…but not boring) On the flip side, […]

Oversized Winter Whites

by FIGTNY

Oversized Winter Whites – Oversized, slouchy and relaxed, wearing monochrome pleats & knits…but despite the obvious volume here, a little much-needed balance comes via my sleek Balenciaga boots. Altogether simple & uncomplicated while playing with texture & proportion. – Wearing Zara skirt + knit (similar skirt here and similar knit here) Balenciaga boots | Simon Miller […]

Anna Quan

by FIGTNY

Anna Quan If you keep up with my blog and Instagram, you would have seen me wearing Anna Quan on repeat. Some of my favorite wardrobe staples are by the Aussie label including the coat I’m wearing here. Know for statement sleeves, cut-out backs and playing with texture, volume and proportion, her pieces feel truly […]

Marooned

by mshadforth

There once was a time that you couldn’t get me within a 5 metre radius of the colour maroon. Blame it on the fact that it was the dominant colour of my school uniform for the vast majority of my childhood, or on the fact that I was monochromatically monogamous to B&W. Either way these days I […]

Zöe Jordan AW16

by Vikki

The Zöe Jordan AW16 collection takes inspiration from a photography trip to the Maasai Mara, the work of Peter Beard and the journey of motorcycle tribes. ‘The idea for this collection was to bring the nature and exploit of an African road adventure to the city’ says Jordan, ‘respecting the need for practicality and mixing raw […]

Today in the office we’re officially declaring today no pants Friday. That’s not to say that we feel as though pants are not an important part of a girls wardrobe but when you’ve had a week like me and the weekend is just around the corner pants become optional. I must also admit that 2 […]

Layback

by mshadforth

The tricky part about experimentation is that it’s risky but as Hellen Keller the famous author once said “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.” The good thing here is that a daring adventure doesn’t have to mean taking a 2 month hiking tour across Tibet with little more than a weeks wages […]

Let’s Play

by Vikki

The Comme Des Garçons Play collection is brilliant; stripe t-shirts and shirts, plain white tees, cute cardigans and jumpers, and (their collaboration with Converse) Chuck Taylor plimsolls, all embellished with the iconic Play heart. I bought my stripe t-shirt in Paris from the Comme Des Garçons Play shop in Le Marais, whilst there for Paris […]

Wildfire

by mshadforth

As Dante Alighieri once said ‘Heat cannot be separated from fire, or beauty from the eternal’. When creatives photographer Ren Pidgeon and model/designer Elyse Knowles recently worked together our fire was truly ignited. With winter upon us in the Southern Hemisphere it’s all about oversized knitwear and layered denim. With cashmere cardi’s and denim overall onesies […]

Skin Deep

by mshadforth

There is a pile of clothes on the floor of my room right now that could resemble the great mountain ranges of the Andes, all in the name of finding a comfortable fitting and preferably stylish knit jumper. Honestly you wouldn’t believe it to be that hard to find such a good wardrobe essential but […]

American Vintage Capsule Wardrobe

by Vikki

I recently popped in to see the American Vintage showroom in London. Whilst there the team asked me to pick out a few of my favourite pieces and then from that we created a pretty perfect capsule wardrobe. As usual I was obsessed with coats and theirs are really nice whether you’re looking for a […]

Washed Out

by mshadforth

I know that after you read this that you’re going to thank me..but wait let me tell you why! So no, I’m not a narcissist, just quietly confident in my somewhat slightly colloquial opinion that you don’t spend enough time in your boyfriend’s closet. Just think about it, it’s not breaking news that men often get […]
