I’m an aficionado of the fashion world with a longing for the
effortless style that was so commonplace in the mid-twentieth century, but
which today seems only to appear in the likes of Vogue and Tatler. I love the
world that these magazines encapsulate.
I myself have fallen foul of the fast-fashion world, been
pulled in by its plastic teeth, had my style chewed out of me and replaced by
crop tops and Hervé Léger bandage dresses. Looking through old Vogue covers
gave me food for thought.
I don’t want to be ‘fashionable’ anymore. I’m breaking free
of the fast-fashion chains and taking my inspiration not from H&M adverts,
but from the people and eras which I admire.
That isn’t to say you can’t shop on the high-street but it’s
about thinking long-term. It’s about thinking about who you are, what your
style is. Look beyond the temporary, often gaudy fashion of today and take your
own style journey.
I hope this blog will help you to do that.
