Lookbook: Saint Laurent Paris 'Skinny'

It seems that Hedi Slimane's debut at the newly rebranded Saint Laurent Paris wasn't the resounding success that everyone expected, with a slight media backlash at his expense regarding certain similarities to his work at Dior Homme. Putting that to one side, his diffusion line 'Skinny' is a more casual affair with monochrome leopard prints and denim complimenting the harder leather pieces.

Outfit: Black-on-Black in Staten Island

Here be my first proper outfit post on this blog and whilst I hadn't intended to ever get involved with these, let's just say I was inspired by being in New York and such amazing surroundings. The 9/11 memorial on Staten Island is the location here, and the great weather helped with the view of southern Manhattan. Although it did result in much squinting. Please take me back here!

New York in Pictures

 So I will admit it, I've been a bit absent on here recently. But I assure you I do have a good excuse - I have been in New York City with my family. Here is a little snapshot of what I got up to! I well and truly fell in love with the city (original I know) and am adamant I will live here at some point. Call me?
