Stolen Girlfriends Club


I've been doing a lot of browsing online recently as I'm growing more and more uninterested in my A/W clothes.
One label that I keep on coming back to is Stolen Girlfriends Club.

I love the wearable and easy-going nature of the Kiwi label;
it's both minimalist and effortlessly chic.

Here is a selection of my favourite designs from the collection, however I couldn't choose just one...
I can't wait to shop the collection soon, and will be heading down to Start Boutique to check it out!

What are your thoughts of the collection?






World of Manolo at Liberty

I got a sneak preview of Manolo Blahnik's 'World of Manolo' at the Liberty launch last night and it was fantastic. I loved the way that Manolo had re-worked archived Liberty prints for his shoe designs - the perfect collaboration. My only regret? Carefully planning my shoes but leaving them by the front door on the way out, faux pas!

Home Sweet Home

I am officially back in the country and freezing! I don't know how everyone has survived the winter especially as people keep telling me that I'm back just in time for spring - and it’s still cold. I have spent my days so far eating all my favourite foods, gorging on all my favourite fashion magazines, blogs and newspapers over endless cups of black tea and honey, and raiding my wardrobe to find all those forgotten pieces. Of course, I have also put my beloved travelling clothes (cut off denim shorts, vests and summer dresses) to the back of my wardrobe, after five months I don't want to see these faithfully friends again for a very long time.




Since being back I had a love at first sight experience with a Rick Owens leather jacket in Liberty, however I'm not sure the price tag is suitable for an impoverished traveller, so if any trust fund boys fancy helping a damsel in distress just let me know...

Street Style: More Mid Century Modern



'My granny in Nigeria knits my hats for me,' says Moses Otunla, 45, 'every time I go she has three or four waiting.' Moses has been selling vintage furniture for over 10 years (mainly to Mr & Mrs That's Not My Age!) His fantastic shop, Bleu, is in Herne Hill.



Stuart Paterson, 43, buys antiques and art for clients. When we bumped into him, Stuart was buying for himself. He collects ugly anglepoise lamps and has a 'small forest of them at home.'



Simon White, 42, and Rumina Haji, 41, (Haji & White) sell vintage posters and antiques . Simon cuts a dash in his Kangol hat and heavy cotton jacket from a Parisian flea market. Rumina looks fab in a 70s Swedish housecoat.



'I'll try not to give myself 80 year old lips!' said Maxine Siwan, 49, re-applying her lipstick before being snapped. Maxine works as a consultant for Liberty, and has the wardrobe to prove it. McQueen scarf, Pauric Sweeney bag...I won't go on.

Time is on my side





'Look out you rock 'n' rollers, pretty soon now you're gonna get older,' warned Bowie in 1971. But 38 years later, The Stones are still rolling on. Charlie Watts, 68, still looks effortlessly stylish, in purple cashmere cardi and crisp gingham shirt on this week's Later. Watts plays with The ABC of Boogie Woogie, and Jools Holland - can that man not leave the piano alone for one week? A fan of classic tailoring and true British style, the best dressed Rolling Stone has grown old with dignity and a wardrobe full of sharp suits. Monosyllabic he may be, but as far as we're concerned Charlie Watts speaks volumes on the fashion front.

Band-mate Ronnie Wood, 62, may have stuck with the ageing rocker, leather jacket and black drainpipes combo, but he has designed a collection of t-shirts, scarves, dresses and bags for iconic London store, Liberty. OK, so he's no Stephen Sprouse but That's Not My Age did find one splashy floral print dress that we actually quite like.

And not forgetting, Sir Mick. 'The ultimate rock star' gives an interview in the October 09 issue of Vogue. So where's Keef?
