Behind the scenes on the J.Crew shoot

Back in August I once again had the terrific pleasure of working with WIT favourite J.Crew by joining forces to celebrate their imminent store opening in London this week. Together with  fellow J.Crew fans Caroline Issa and Candice Lake, we chose our favourite AW items, and went for a very fashionable walk around our respective neighbourhoods. The photo shoot is featured in their current J.Crew magazine (you can find as a supplement in December's UK Vogue) and in a post to run on their blog.

It was such a fun day,  I got to play with the ultimate dressing up box and realised just how excited I still get about fabulous clothes and accessories. Here's a scrapbook post with behind the scenes pics from our day in sunny Shoreditch: from hair and make up on my kitchen table,  to Greta making friends with photographer Bryan Derballa and off takes on set.

I chose an amazing monochrome pony skin leopard print pencil skirt which I styled with my own Zara jumper, Christian Louboutin heels an old Prada bag and two J.Crew layered crystal necklaces..
