A few weeks ago, it was back on
a plane over to the States. It was pretty weird being back on my old stomping
ground of Manhattan, so couldn’t give up the opportunity to
shoot this classy yet contemporary look on the streets of Soho. I know these
cobbled streets well, but the last time I walked them I didn’t
even have a blog! It was nice to experience them differently and view the
streets from a more creative perspective, admiring the view looking upwards and visiting a creative space that isn't to be missed! Will share more in a few weeks.
Today’s
all black look is one of my favourites in a long
time. I love the cut of this wool skirt from Third Form, and it’s
just the right length for me with a little added height from my boots. I can
definitely see myself wearing this with a chunky turtle neck in the coming
months. When wearing a fitted skirt, I always like to contrast with an
oversized top or floaty details. It gives the whole look more shape. Can we
just talk about this top? I have been eager to own a piece from House of Sunny
ever since they launched. Based in London, the brand focuses on flawless
aesthetic and silhouettes cut precisely for everyday wear. I am drawn to their
clean tailoring. The back of this top is so flattering I haven’t
taken it off, wearing it to work with a bralet and frayed jeans. This piece is
actually really fun to style.
My time in Soho was spent with
Christina whom photographed me for this post. It was lovely to meet her
and discuss common passions behind the camera. It’s
amazing how many people I have met on Instagram these last 2 years, and hope to
continue meeting fellow creatives this year!
