Scrap book from a (busy) day in my life

  It's a great day today! My J.Crew invite is going up and I have a busy day of press days and fabulous evening events so I'm dressing to impress. 

The invite goes out and already dozens of you starts emailing your RSVP's

 

8am

Decisions decisions: stripes or floral?

 The sun is shining and I am feeling summery. I have two events tonight so I need an outfit that will take me through from am to pm in style and statement skirt and simple sweatshirt combination always works for me.  

I opt for my Stella McCartney skirt that I bought last summer and are yet to wear out, After all I'm meeting Jenna Lyons today so it's something of a celebration. This neon brocade collection is still partly available on The Outnet

8.30

Make up time

 

 I love this lipstick that a very kind WIT reader has sent to me all the way from the USA. It's from the Marc Jacobs make up collection not yet available in the UK and it's called Scandal

 

Greta comes in to make some outfit suggestions of her own...

It's a quick kiss and I'm out of the house

On the way to work I stop by the "WIT wall" for a quick pic of my outfit. Today I'm wearing my Stella skirt with a J.Crew Tippi sweater, Sophia Webster shoes and a Dolce e Gabbana mini bag

When I don't have a breakfast appointment I always stop by Leon for my daily take away. At the moment I'm obsessed with their yogurts with yummy toppings
