    Tight Knit

    October 24, 2014

    I first worked with knitwear designer Kelli McGuinness on an editorial for BULLETT Magazine back in 2012, when she kindly hauled her entire graduate collection to the studio just for the occasion. The collection was an explosion of texture, print,…

    Stay Bright

    October 15, 2014

    ‘Transitional dressing!’, ‘What you should be wearing this a/w!’, ‘The perfect coat that will take you from the office to the club!’, ‘If you buy one pair of boots this winter, make it these!’. These sorts of articles are everywhere…

    September 26, 2014

    CHEEKLDN is a bright, fun, playful label with a dash of grown up chic thrown into the mix. The brand describes its collections as being about ‘the clash of youth and sophistication; of youthfulness and seriousness’. This hybrid reveals itself…

    Pink is Power

    September 3, 2014

    Feminism is a pretty hot topic right now, some even choose to call it trendy. Take Beyoncé’s recent performance at the VMAs, for instance, as she stood silhouetted against the word ‘Feminist’ in huge white letters, if that’s not a sign…

    Day Tripper

    August 21, 2014

    As I mentioned in my previous post, I recently had some time off. Rather than go away anywhere (don’t mention holidays abroad to me, it’s a sore point. I’ve had a seven year drought as far as sunny climes are…

    Beside the Seaside

    August 10, 2014

    On and Poppin’

    August 1, 2014

    Abstraction

    June 23, 2014
