Wee finds: New York fashion week
Whilst the Marc by Marc Jacobs' show at New York Fashion week wasn't exactly earth-shattering, I'm not ashamed to admit that I like his accessories and details. But stuff the idea of waiting around 'til next Autumn - I'm taking on board all the hat/scarf action right now.
Those in the Northern Hemisphere may relate when I refer to late-February wardrobe tedium. Seriously, I've been pretty much wearing the same coat every day for four months' now. Never mind if I'm actually wearing a new frock as it never sees the light of day. I may as well be roaming central London in my pyjamas for all that matters.
It's still too cold (and I'm too broke) to even contemplate the tasty new Spring collections arriving in store, so that's why I'm taking such a special interest in all the vintage-style knotted lovelies in Jacobs' line-up.
They look especially good paired with the muted shades of what Style.com describes as "felt Molly Ringwald hats" (ha!). I'm going to dig up my collection of colourful silk scarves and see what I can do. Might just do the trick and make same-coat-wearing that much more bearable - you know, breath of fresh air and all of that.
Jacobs always does a few super-sweet brooches and hair accessories for his diffusion range - and these apple and birdy(!) ones are no exception.
