LLG Fashion: Whistles Mia Sunglasses & Accessorize Panama Hat

April 22, 2013 Accessories

My Northern European, morgue-pale skin always gets slathered with SPF50 under the heat of the sun, but it’s still not enough to stop me burning, so I always wear a hat and hide behind large framed sunglasses the moment I cross the English Channel. I don’t mind because I like hiding in plain sight, and […]

LLG Fashion: Golden Lane Handbags

March 13, 2013 Accessories

I am very jaded where the subject of handbags is concerned. Every season there is something new, something shiny, something vereeee expensive that magazines tell us is the dernier cri. I’ve almost given up on investing in handbags, and just carry around a pouch or something tiny with the bare essentials in it: I recommend […]

LLG Fashion: Baukjen Stingray clutch & tablet case

January 1, 2013 Accessories

This fabulous clutch was one of my favourite handbags of 2012. Not only is it scratch– and Sasha-proof (I’ve had mine since the summer and it is still as good as new), Baukjen the eponymous owner and designer of the label, who sent it to me, made sure it was properly padded on both sides, […]

Object of Desire: L’Wren Scott Minnie Mouse Ears at Barneys New York

November 20, 2012 Accessories

Want. Want. Want. I do love a veil. I got a taste for them when Piers Atkinson lent me a hat with a glorious spangled one for Vidal Sassoon’s memorial service at St Paul’s Cathedral last month, and feel these ears + veil could be a key part of the Christmas party outfit arsenal, which […]

Object of Desire: The Pandora Perspex Clutch by Charlotte Olympia

November 13, 2012 Accessories

Last night I got dressed up and headed to the global première of Breaking Dawn 2 here in Los Angeles. (I was given tickets through my agent — thank you, lovely, who was in town because one of the stars  (begins with R, ends with B) of the movie is also a Curtis Brown client.) […]

LLG Fashion: Pouches

October 1, 2012 Accessories

I’ve been all but given up on handbags since New Year, when I bought that orange bag (6, above) in Marrakech. As I browsed through the excellent pieces in Place Vendome, Gueliz’s most famous leather goods store, I was really taken with the idea of downsizing all the junk which I carry around on a […]

LLG Fashion: Whistles launch Shoes for AW12.…

September 9, 2012 Accessories

I was checking out the new Whistles collection in-store over the weekend, (that’s my excuse for shopping), when I saw their brand new shoe capsule collection. It launches in full next season, but for a taster, this is pretty impressive. And I like that they are all named after iconic cocktails. The French 75 Stiletto […]

LLG Fashion: Coach Party for Vogue’s Fashion’s Night Out London

September 7, 2012 Accessories

There was way too much fun last night on Bond Street. When I tell you that the photo above was taken in the first fifteen minutes of our event at Coach, you’ll have an idea of just how busy Mayfair — and the Coach store — was last night. Vogue’s Fashion’s Night Out has become […]

Object of Desire: Nike x Liberty Dunk Sky High Liberty Print Wedge Trainers

August 3, 2012 Accessories

I’m not a particularly acquisitive fashion lover. You won’t ever find me lining up outside a store for the launch of a new collection, or joining waiting lists for It Bags. But, once in a blue moon, something captures my imagination and my want want want alarm button goes off. Which is what happened with […]
