How we wear Isabella Oliver

17th May 2011 3:20 pm

If you remember my confession last week of an unquenchable craving for classic pieces, you’ll remember I said it was a prelude to a guest blog I’d written for Isabella Oliver. Well, that post is now live on their website, so I figure it’s only right to share it with you.

It shouldn’t be hard picking my favourite pieces from a retailer who shares the same style philosophies as me – classic, elegant, timeless and practical – but my indecisive nature gets the better of me at the best of times, let alone when I’m pronouncing how to style a store’s staples.

Still, that urge for something that’ll stand the test of time prevailed.

See below for my top picks from Isabella Oliver and my favourite pieces to style alongside them…

 

Look 1: relaxed evening

Breton jumper dress, £95, available at Isabella Oliver; classic trench, £239, available at Isabella Oliver; Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony Mary Ellen platform boots, £455, available at Browns (I may be 5 ft 11, but I can’t resist the charm of massive chunky boot); Mini ric rac bag, £79.20, available at Jaeger.

 

Look 2: downtown cool

Breton jumper dress, £95, available at Isabella Oliver; everyday biker jacket, £369, available at Isabella Oliver; Superga white plimsolls, £40, available at my-wardrobe.com; Mini ric rac bag, £79.20, available at Jaeger.
