Knit one, purl one...
London Fashion Week has kicked off and one thing that caught my eye was the cable knit leggings at Topshop Unqiue Fall 2010 RTW. I love them and while I appreciate they can make even skinny models look a little on the chunky side this doesn't mean we have to give it up altogether. Karla Spetic has again included wool cable knit in her upcoming collection (see below) and while it includes her now signature cable knit skirt, it also includes socks and scarves. She also has some other cuddly knits, so be sure to check them out.

Proenza Schouler
God I love these shoes! Just had to share them with you! A little bit of wood, a touch of colour, a lace, a sexy height, what is not to love about them...

Dear St Valentine
Dear St Valentine
Who are you and where did you come from? I heard you were a Catholic martyr and that you were not one but many. Strange. A feast in your honour was started by a Pope in 496, he thought it might be a good idea to set aside the 14th of February as a day to eat in your honour. Cool. But what is your story? Why and how did you inspire a tradition of celebrating love for another? Seems no one knows. Many say it is consumerism that inspires your tradition... I don't care, sounds like fun to me. But maybe you should have a rule book associated with your holiday. It could start with:
- Flowers coming from organic matter only - no plastic thanks.
- Celebrate it wholeheartly or not at all. Complaining that V Day was created by commerce is boring.
- Acts of love come in many forms and it doesn't require the spending of money - jewellery made of grass/picked flowers (sorry neighbours), whispered words, notes of appreciation...
- V day is not a birthday - wish lists are a little rich.
- Secret admiring can be flattering but a little freaky... do it with care...
So, Saint V can you pass on the message and thanks for the inspiration.
Love LMc
PS I know I said rule 5 was don't make wish lists but this is not technically a wish list, its a list to inspire... (I promise!)

Style rookie she ain't
I find it incredible how a 13 year old who is not a model nor related to a fashion royal family can inspire so much fashion hype. How a 13 year old's fashion dialogue can make the fashion world stop and listen. But that is just what a 13 year old from Chicago has done. Tavi Gevinson started her fashion musings at the age of 11 with her blog Style Rookie and has since gone on to feature in many a magazine most recently American Vogue. Her taste is unique and appears extraordinarily unaffected by her peers. The kid really is a child fashion prodigy. Check her out at Style Rookie
