why i do what I do.....

I am now Fashion Director at Glamour magazine but following on from the success of my weekly column in the Sunday Times Style magazine I thought I would bring this page to life every week and also give you the chance to comment. This page is not for me to dictate what you should be wearing but to offer ideas on how to put wearable outfits together. Its not what you wear it's how you wear it!

The New 60's.....



TIP...I wanted to make the 60's slightly less literal so took these printed trousers and wore with a loose blazer and a pyjama shaped cotton shirt (my favourite summer shape) the oversized round sunnies add to the 60's touch but go bigger for a more modern take on the circular frame trend

TIP...high waisted shorts and a button up blouse give the 60's a more preppy edge I love the bright colour of the shorts and I would wear flats when you have shorts during the day I love the nude leather as it means you don't focus on the shoes and then the straps round the ankles don't cut your leg at the ankle

TIP...a shift dress is a great 60's shape and the print adds to this trend in a literal sense but I have added my cowboy boots for a cooler and more modern approach to this outfit
