Style Stalker Skirt / Zara Top / Vintage Sequin Bra / Michael Kors Watch / Vintage Bag and Necklace / Tony Bianco Heels  To be honest I've had this vintage sequin bra for as long as I can remember. I don't even know where I got it from and that very rarely happens. It's been safely hidden in the back of my wardrobe, so much so that I had completely forgotten I owned it. For some reason the first time I decide to wear it is with this gold sequin skirt by Style Stalker. Double the sequins and double the fun! Worn here with an unbuttoned shirt inspired by my favourite Yeojin Bae look from RAFW here, fine gold accessories and delicate heels. Minimal but with a vintage twist. Love how a girl whispered "Is she wearing a sequin bra?" at the traffic lights too. I was tempted to turn around and say "Yes, but are you looking down my top?", but I suppose that was the whole point. A little bit of sequins peeking out of the shirt to add that cheeky element of surprise. Photos by Jysla Kay

Shakuhachi Cape / Vintage Knit Dress and Hat / Zara Heels / Michael Kors Watch / Marcs Bag I was feeling a little romantic today in my red wool cape and matching beret. I've been waiting for the chance to wear this cute vintage hat I found at Brooklyn Flea Markets in New York City but nothing seemed just right to wear with it. Luckily, this Shakuhachi cape seemed to be made for this hat and go hand in hand when complimenting each other. Its structured shoulders and hidden front pockets make this beautiful AW piece somewhere between a cape and a coat, with its cut out detail and neon vibrancy adding a unique point of difference. Perfect for wandering Hyde Park in the rain with nothing to do but feel the love around Valentine's Day. Kind of feel like all I'm missing now is a baguette and the Eiffel tower. One day, merci beaucoup...
