Give us this day....

... Our daily vest!

As summer approaches so fast i've entered into a romantic relationship with jersey - its an obsession that can only end happily, given that it's the perfect fabric for slouching around in on hot days and comes in so oversized this year that I can eat as many ice creams as I like and noone will ever know! Good times!

Here is todays aquisition of love:

The colour is a pale denim blue and the tie dye pattern actually makes the fabric look thicker; like 80s denim rather than jersey. I've cinched it in with my panther belt, but it's actually really wide and slouchy around the hips, and I love the ruching details at the bottom, which I think adds a little bit of sexiness! Cripes I better stop, I actually am talking about it like we're in a relationship! I just can't stop myself from buying the jersey...

Lots of Love,

Pop to the shops and get me some T-Bags!

Hey all,

Now, firstly I should point out that I don't drink tea. Or coffee. Or hot chocolate. In fact all hot drinks make me feel icky, and feeling icky is not-my-thing! However when scrolling through the net-a-porter sale pages idling over what to spend some unexpected pennies on (for once, I haven't overspent this month!) I found these 4 dresses (all marked down to less than £80!) I could definitely imagine myself wearing from a company called T-Bags which I had never heard of before:

The net-a-porter blurb about the company told me this: "T bags launched in 2000 as a handbag line, but very quickly became better known for its gorgeous sequinned kurtas and kaftans, delicate jersey tops and pretty dresses - all of which are brilliantly versatile. As Su-Lyn Tay and Shadi Askari, designers of this L.A. based brand, say, "They look equally fabulous worn on the beach with flip flops or glammed up for the evening."

But I wanted more information, and more importantly more pictures! Although not particuarly "fashion forward" I really like the bold patterns (which i always find good for hiding a love handle or two!) and the thick jersey fabric they are reported to be made in is one of my favs: flattering and comfortable and seasonless (provided you have a cardigan!) What more do you need?

To google! (said in "to the batmobile" type batman voice!) What I discovered was this: the brand doesn't appear to have its own website (this shocks me in ways I cannot truly express!) I also discovered I am a fool for having not have heard of it before, as it is available not only on net a porter.com but also on asos.com, stylefinder.com, and an abundance of other websites I visit literally daily! As well as all that I also found exactly what I wanted: gorgeous dresses in gorgeous fabrics (all available on asos.com and priced around the £250 mark in the interest of fairness)

Enjoy:

Love Tor x
