Oxblood Bags

My favourite Topshop backpack is starting to look a bit worse for wear so I've started the hunt again for an everyday bag; preferably one that can be predominantly used during the day but will transfer to evening as well. After looking for this allusive bag (most are too casual, others too eveningy- thats a word, right?) I've decided that these are ideal, the perfect colour is oxblood, it adds a pop of colour to my mainly black/dark outfits and looks good day and night. I have a camel coat and a light brown fur coat so this will match both of these perfectly. Although most of these are out of my price range I do have my eye on that fluffy Topshop one!

OOTD

This is the outfit I wore last weekend at my friend Joe's 21st Birthday party, I didn't want to go too dressy as he was having a house party so I decided on just a boot rather than a full heel. The only item I couldn't find on Polyvore was a bag that I have had for  while from Zara but this ones quite similar.

Erwin Blumenfeld


In the summer I went to London to look at the Erwin Blumenfeld exhibition at Somerset House. The exhibition stunned me. So many great photogrphs, Harper's Bazaar editor in chief Carmel Snow called Blumenfeld a Godsend; and its easy to see why! All the photos in the exhibition were originally black and white but were digitally reconstructed into colour images, the photos have been transformed amazingly into pastel delights that work so well in Somerset House.
