Back 2 School Essentials

As Style.com’s Candy Pratts Price puts it, “September is the January in fashion” and we are well and truly into the month of September. The weather is changing, it is definitely time to change the wardrobes- out with the old in with the new.

Lanvin Chocolates?

I saw this box of Lanvin chocolates (yes that is correct, Lanvin) in a supermarket in Paris. So for €8.90 anyone could own some Lanvin...!

Best dressed MAN of last week...: Elliott James Sainsbury

I am sure Elliott will not be too pleased about this as he is very modest about his great style, but i just had to shout about. The other day (pictured below), Elliott kept his Lanvin blazer on all day, until the heat got the better of him and he peeled it off. No i am sure you will all agree with me, that he looks great. Maybe it is my current obsession with all things stripped, and the fact that he looks great. I love the perfect white ribbed cardigan teamed with the opposing vertical stripe blue and white striped shirt with the sleeve rolled up to casual 3/4 length, and then the insousciantly tied belt and the crumpled cropped trouser. There is something very cool, quite Monaco about it, i can imagine him driving his yatch into the harbour, parking it and then cool-y smoking a cigarette.
