SOHO





I've been here in New York for a bit over 3 weeks now and what an adventure it has  been.

To me, this city that never sleeps feels like the centre of the world. Always something exciting happening and always something new on the horizon. Amazing fashion, food and company.

I've been fortunate to have had the opportunity while here to collaborate with some amazing stylists and photographers on a series of projects, which I look forward to sharing with you shortly. Until then - you can get all the sneak peeks over on instagram @friendinfashion.

For now, a quick outfit snapped while running errands in Soho.

NYFW STREET STYLE PART II





Here is a look at my outfit for day 2 of NYFW, snapped running between shows. 

I'm a big fan of slogan tees, and Zoe Karssen is always a favourite of mine - as you can see here in this earlier blog post.

During fashion week, I had quite a few questions about this skirt, which is one I designed a short while ago while travelling through Bali.

A leather skirt is such a versatile piece, and has served me well through my travels.

NYFW STREET STYLE PART I





As New York Fashion Week draws to an end, I thought I'd share some of my favourite looks with you.

For me, my fashion week style is all about simplicity and ease - beautifully tailored pieces, complimented by the perfect statement accessories.

I can never go past a great white dress in the summer time, and these beautifully intricate earrings, by my favourite jewellery designer, Fiel Sol add the perfect touch of glam.

Day after day of running all across town, I've also quickly learnt the importance of a large statement bag - an extra pair of flats in between shows, subways and cabs is a godsend and a hot little tip of mine for getting through fashion week relatively unscathed.

PARIS STREET STYLE



















There is something about a full skirt dress, that makes me want to spin circles and pick roses. The fact that I was in Paris taking these photos was the cherry on top. 

Although quite detailed, this Free People dress is surprisingly versatile - worn with these beautiful Alice + Olivia heels or worn with my favourite New Balance sneakers & pea coat for a more urban twist. 

If you've been following my instagram adventure (@friendinfashion) you'd see that i've arrived in New York. Another of my favourite cities in the world, which by no coincidence also coincides with NYFW. 

Let the fashion week adventure begin!
