TRIMMINGS!
Babies in politics, fashion in cards, gold at Mess.
Early 20th century baby clothes with political aspirations. Adorable and fascinating—if also morally dubious…

Last week, I savoured Jenny Walton’s Jenny Sais Quoi! which is a delightful read/gaze, as anyone who follows her will have predicted.

The deck of cards all about runway history I created with Thames & Hudson is now available! ‘Catwalk Icons’ (or ‘Catwalk Queens’ in the UK) tells the story of 52 Visionaries, Rebels, Muses, and Masters who shaped fashion. And two jokers too! There’s a booklet by yours truly that tells the brief story of each— was quite a fun challenge to explain the likes of Galliano and Rihanna in 200 words or fewer.

We’re hosting a pop-up with Yeah It’s Jewelry this Saturday at Mess! Pop in to check out some gorgeous gold and exclusive selection of vintage New York-themed charms (yes, there are rats). It’s going to be glam! See you there?

For the first time in recent memory, I have absolutely zero weddings to attend this summer. Despite past seasons’ bitching and moaning, I’m really missing having a big event to shop/style for right now! Do you have a wedding with a very specific dress code coming up? I’d love to help. Drop your quandaries in the comments.

I’ve got a wedding in Greece this summer and I haven’t worked out what shoes to wear! I’m about to start panic buying kitten heels on Depop
I am going to a wedding near Copenhagen in early July and have no idea what to wear. What would be something I could go for to keep up with the cool Copenhagen fashion girls that are going to be there?
