This brilliant shoot with Daria Werbowy was enough to bring me back out of my blogging malaise. We've seen plenty of 90s grunge inspired editorial over the past few months but none can nail that slightly androgynous tomboy chic such as the ever-cool Daria Werbowy. 

And proving she's not just a pretty face Daria talks through how she kept the power over her burgeoning modelling career in a tell all interview within the magazine's pages as well. You can pick it up in store now.

Styling: Kate Phelan

 My iCloud is full, my computer hard-drive is full and my external hard-drive is about to explode, so i'm sort of running out of places to hide the millions of snaps i take on my trusty little iPhone (4 - not even 4S - 3 years old and surely with days only until she perishes under the load). 

So i thought where better than here, recently rather abandoned for the sunnier climes of Pinterest, to champion all those lost images that float around on our (my) phones. All those that aren't quite right for the carefully edited Instagram or that don't make the cut onto Facebook or whatever. Despite the fact that so few people actually use a camera anymore we have become such an image-gathering race and i hate to see loads of images that i've taken because i find their subject genuinely interesting, go unnoticed or unrecorded somewhere - to be deleted when i upgrade my phone. 

So here lies batch one of home, holidays and the funny little details of the big city that is London - the things i love the most, that inspire me and that keep me hanging out here. It sure as hell is not the weather.

AND...

...whilst i'm belatedly wishing for impossible items, i suddenly really want this dress from Stella McCartney's SS11 collection. Bit slow on the uptake... 

GAME CHANGER

Thought i hated these Isabel Marant sandals... but this little ol' picture from Pernille is such a game changer. Suddenly i need them, must have them etc etc. How annoying.
