These coral trousers are amazing. Although I am not really objective as I am completely obsessed with coral trousers at the moment. There are some really pretty ones in H&M and I have to walk around the shop holding them and wondering whether I can pull them off or not every single time I walk past an H&M.
Seeing how well this dude does coral makes me want to cry and forget about getting some for myself. It will never look as good! x
Mademoiselle Robot: I've seen the new haircut, I've seen the shorty-shorts, I've seen that you own the sweetest doggie in the world (who will even pose for you in that gorgeous blue vintage suitcase).....OF COURSE, you can pull off coral trousers!You must make haste to H&M this weekend, pick up those suckers, march them to the checkout and then pack them in your suitcase for your trip. I can see them in Stockholm.... p.s. please do not tell me that you travel with the vintage blue suitcase or I will surely die of envy :) Oh, and your packing article reminds me of something I try VERY hard to forget- my $1,700 excess luggage charge from Qantas airways when I moved from Australia to London in 2007. I feel woozy everytime my bag gets weighed at the airport now...
This is an amazing photograph. The IAM VINTAGE model pulls this combination off superbly. Coral trousers are definitely the new 'in'. London fashion seems to be moving in a completely new and exciting direction.
Oh gosh, the doggie and the suitcase aren't mine unfortunately! I wish they were though. I am looking for the perfect vintage suitcase, one that would resist airport handling... so far, nada.
Thank you for the encouragements about the coral trousers, I might just go to H&M and try them on!
I am sure moving countries is an exception to the packing rule!
May: Australia as a travel destination; Flat whites + cold pressed coffee from Ltd espresso + brew bar (Brunswick St, Brisbane) and BlackStar Coffee Roasters (West End, Brisbane); Avocado on toasted Turkish bread from Leavain Bakery (pick up a slab at the Jan Powers Powerhouse Farmers Market) with a drizzle of Joseph olive oil; Steak at the Brekky Creek Hotel (it may not be the best steak in Australia but a char-grilled steak in the iconic Beer Garden on a warm, sunny Autumn day is pretty hard to beat!); Bill Granger's Spicy Roast Pumpkin Salad (so delicious especially with bbq'd lamb cutlets. Add a little less cumin and cayenne pepper if you like things less spicy); Jocelyn's Provisions blonde brownie (a delicious sweet treat); Band of Outsiders cutout silk-chiffon midi dress (so dreamy and floaty.... perfect for warm spring evenings. Wear with flat summer sandals for the "I am definitely on holidays look!"); Current/Elliott The Infantry jacket (a cool alternative to the ubiquitous olive army jacket); Nicholas Kirkwood lace-mesh pumps(wear with a crisp white shirt, denim jeans + a bold red lip); J Brand Relaxed slouchy overalls (if you haven't got your hands on a pair of overalls yet...get on it! This yellow pair would be like wearing the sun on a daily basis); Tibi eyelet embroidered dress (a sweet dress for apres-beach.....or when you wish it was apres-beach!);J. Crew Collage crystal drop earrings (love the acid bright colours!); Topshop embroidered horse sweat (dreaming of my holiday at the White Stallion Ranch earlier this year); Topshop peplum frill corset (so pretty!); Reading: Australian Gourmet Traveller + MADE Quarterly magazine; Listening to: Just Give Me A Reason Pink/Nate Ruess, and Mountain Sound Of Monsters and Men; Watching: Django Unchained (brilliant, brilliant movie. I watched it while on my looooong Qantas flight)
I am an Australian lawyer turned photographer living in London;
I take a thousand photographs every day - some in my head, some with my camera;
I can't imagine doing anything else with my life- I am totally and utterly in love with my camera and with the people and things I photograph

ReplyDeleteThank you vanessa for displaying such style!

I wore my coral trousers Tuesday, along with a pinstiped shirt, woven leather belt and beige canvass shoes.
