Ya know, if money grew on trees I wouldn't be seen out in the streets without these amazing Dior trainers on my feet. They are just about the coolest thing I've ever seen: they're ninja, ladylike, somewhat weird shaped and unlike any other trainers out there. They are couture and street cool, and these too things hardçy ever go hand in hand.
My other fetish at the mo' is Fendi's micro Peekaboo bag. Cute and lovely like all things tiny, they are also a great excuse to say no when your boyfriend tries to unload his phone/wallet/keys/smokes on you.
Look how pretty these bad boys look with girly skirts:

Satisfying associations
The colour in these Zilian shoes is so dreamy and inspiring. It imediately brought to mind the atmospheric lilacs and pastel tones in impressionist works. (Above: Monet - Charing Cross Bridge, 1899)
Satisfying associations
Old-school style shop window display in Braga, Portugal.
Brillo box installation by Andy Warhol. The banality of everyday life inside the museum.

Satisfying associations
I find this terribly satisfying.

Don't think you can ever combine black & white + red, blue and yellow without resonating the FATHER OF PRIMARY COLOURS, Piet Mondrian.
As I was doing a quick search on Mondrian-inspired shoes I found quite a few quirky ones; have a looksee:
Charlotte Olympia
Vans (fyi, would kill for these)

Today
What I like most about anything visual is colour. More than shape, colour is what really draws me in. Today I've mixed mossy, muddy tones like dark green and greys with a bit of pink for contrast. Because today's palette is so serious and deep, I thought I'd sprinkle some sass into these earthy tones by adding the pink glitter shoes. I really like it!
Duffel coat is Bimba y Lola (their sales are the best), sweatshirt by The Kooples, linen shirt is Hugo Boss (it's huge because I borrowed from the boyfriend without him knowing - ps.: good luck seeing it again, love!), Mango jeans and Gucci horsebit loafers, also from sales.
On the background you can also see a wee bit of a beautiful Cy Twombly painting. Here's some more for inspiration and good luck:

Grey and gold
Today I have accidentally put together my new favourite colour combination: grey and gold. It's all Zara everything (let's call it Zarmani to chic it up a bit), except for the sweater, which is a rejected prototype I picked up at the factory. I love these ill-fiting, odd-coloured rejects; I just find them more captivating and unique than the final, super tweaked version our clients are happier with.

Piers Atkinson
I think hats and hair accessories are a lovely thing but when it comes to real life, what I really like is to stay in bed in the morning as much as I can, i.e. decorating my head just doesn't make it to my list of priorities. Since I don't usually wear anything that's not absolutely essential to guarantee the basic levels of a dignified appearence, my general take on hats is 'ain't nobody got time fo dat'.
I recognize that floppy wide brim hats are fab and I dig the air of mistery and nostalgia they give. But they're hardly the latest piece of news, right?
Then I came across milliner Piers Atkinson and my jaw dropped. Here's why:

If you like it, you should put a big fucking ring on it.
The very antidote of boredom.
Why not? It's always a good idea.
Now go look at your floppy hats and your fedoras again and tell me they haven't just faded away in comparison.
