Eyes On: Chiara Ferragni

Presenting our favourite Italian blogger, Chiara Ferragni.

The Summer Suit

This Preen by Thornton Bregazzi wool-crepe suit (paired with mirror heels) is ideal for any Summer wardrobe and the minimal zip detailing adds an extra dimension to both the blazer and trousers. Paired with a simple black or white shirt, heels or sandals, you’re ready to hit the office or the resort. Alternatively, each piece can be worn individually and still look stunning! For a more affordable and casual alternative, Zara has just started selling a very similar suit set (paired with sandals).

Style Bubble x & Other Stories

Style blogger Susanna Lau of Style Bubble teamed up with Street Peeper to present her favourite pieces from & Other Stories Spring/Summer 14 collection. The line, which is adorned with flowery, block and wispy prints, is sure to get everyone in the mood for summer. Aided by the London sunshine, I for one definitely dumped my winter blues when I visited their store today to check it out. Bring on the summer wardrobe!

Alexander Wang x H&M

This latest collaboration was announced via Wang’s New York Instagram page at midnight last night (http://instagram.com/alexanderwangny) to the delight of many fans, including myself. As if being the creative director of Balenciaga was not already enough, Wang is officially the first designer to partner with H&M! I’m thrilled about this partnership and can’t wait to see what this style genius produces.

Vogue Festival 2014 Fashion Legends

About 2 weeks ago, my sister and I travelled to Southbank Centre to head to the Vogue festival, a weekend full of talks and showcases dedicated to fashion. 

Fela Kuti Remix of Pharrell’s ‘Happy’

Listen to this dope Fela Kuti Remix of Pharrell’s ‘Happy’

"Happy" is probably my favorite song of the past year, and I wanted to make a blend that wasn’t too obvious, but made sense upon first listen. I thought the shuffle tempo, driving bass lines and horns of Fela Kuti could provide a nice backdrop, so I chopped up his classic, "Colonial Mentality," and this is the end result.

Normally I would write up a post myself, but this just summarises it perfectly. For everyone out there to listen to, thank Fela.

Brandon Street Food Market at Canal Mills

Normally, I would associate Canal Mills to the night scene (mostly of the student variety), with heavy music and people doing what they think is dancing.
