Black and Blue

Happy Monday all,
the start of another week. It's looking very autumnal in my garden, leaves strewn everywhere, beautiful but at the same time a little depressing. I must try and get some photos this week.

Todays outfit kind of breaks some rules, I remember being told when I was younger not to wear black and blue together,
but I've become rather fond of the contrast and so, with a lack of options of this inbetween weather, I chucked this on

[please note Flash, who has been stalking me all morning]

The lights have wet look leopard print detail and are very strange to walk around in, as they make a wierd noise against laminate flooring.

Anyone have any exciting plans for the week? I have a quiet one ahead with only blood tests and the dentist booked in so far...

And London Fashion Week is, in my opinion, far surpassing NY. I am head over heels with Matthew Williamson especially.

LFW is always such a treat. I've always had a high opinion of your designers! There are a few creative designers here and there in NY, but London rocks it like no other city for sure. Love those tights.
