Issey Miyake silver tote

Last week I popped into the new Topshop on fifth avenue after seeing all the hoopla about it.  Has anyone else been?  I actually liked it.

Bao Bao Issey Miyake bag

Note the woman’s leopard jacket and old school white trainers.  Bloody brilliant.

glitter oxfords

Mens marble sweatshirt: Topman (I’m wearing size small).  Skirt: Asos.  Shoes: Topshop (old).  Bag: Issey Miyake. Shades: Ray-Ban Foldables (I flipping love these).

After checking out every level I ended up on the mens floor  (stand back in amazement) and left with this  mens sweatshirt.  It’s long enough to  have a drop waist effect over loose skirts and tight jeans.
All the sweatshirts I have are from the mens section actually.   You’ve seen this skirt before with the white motorcycle jacket and heels and longer hair when I wanted more hacked off (here).  This time it’s old glitter brogues which I’m effing loving all over again and the mirror-like bag that looks like a disco ball with handles attached.  It’s completely unstructured and collapses into a sparkly heap when sitting on a flat surface.  It comes in a small clutch/make up bag too which I linked to below and like just as much.

      Thank you Jenny! Blame the style on the disco bag which could make a potato sack look cool
