A Hint of Vintage

Posted by twistedlemon on

I love Ingenue – from the early products most of us have in our inventories to the latest and greatest, and a magnificent recent venture into shoes… which must be said, are divine. Ingenue textures are always perfect and the system skirts always amaze me with the perfection of line and shading.  A classic afternoon style, in navy and pink – a combination which has recently been little seen, but which is always elegant.

Simple Classic Black

Posted by Thalia Jie on

Black has always been a difficult color to wear, and it’s hard to avoid looking like a walking inkblot.

Two designers have come up with stylish solutions in their textures.

Takuya Jinn, of Gabriel has this “High Neck Sweater” in a ribbed black on black pattern, which comes in a sleeveless style shown here, full length sleeves or a mini top. The necklace and roll-neck collar come as a single attachment and you also have the option of wearing just the roll-neck collar without the necklace.

The new release pencil skirt from Coco, has a subtle black and grey broad stripe, matching belt and fine button and seam details on the waistline.
