A bit of die hard Chanel literally die hard. A melting Chanel logo on a t- shirt brings along so many 90's vibes and thoughts of religious iconography. Perhaps a bit of Gwen Stefani? Or burn-out-celebrity Lindsey Lohan vibes? Finally it gave me the chance to wear my bindie stickers, I say free, but I did buy a trashy kids magazine just to get them. Though of course I didn't want to loose the sophistication of Chanel, some slick tailoring was needed. Then suddenly, (*warning, this bracket is unneeded, but oh my god, boy did it seems like this*a smooth sweeping fairy fizzled in) my mum flew in and gives me a pair of Paul Smith trousers! They are a pair from the 90's, which perfectly and coincidentally fitted in with the theme. Taking inspiration from the contrasting fabric trends in AW11, I decided to juxtapose the soft and slick tailored garments to a rough and bulky walking boots.
Plus have any bloggers seen the Style Hunter shoot in Vogue, it reminded me so much of an idyllic street style dream? Id happily wear it as put in the photos- which is saying something! I'd be super happy to hear your thoughts on it. Finally, check out the fabulous blog Pneumonia White who added me recently to their blog roll, it's a super fab blog.

A really well constructed outfit...kind of ugly but in the best way possible,with all the juxtaposition going on (hope that comes off as a compliment,not an insult ^.^)
