Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Audrey

Audrey Leighton Rogers, from Frassy blog, Paris, March 2012.

On Monday I talked about the white suit and it all being a bit tricky to wear white + white in everyday life especially if you anything like me and prone to dripping/spilling things or wearing fake tan in the heat :) The way Audrey is wearing her white/off-white blazer is a great way to incorporate a white suit into your wardrobe: wear the entire suit on days when you are feeling particularly brave (the days when you are convinced a pigeon will not poop on your head* or you won't sit in something unidentifiable and icky) and wear separates (which work so well with this season's florals and prints) for all the other days!

Recreate Audrey's look (kind of):

Joseph Sir blazer (off-white), Calvin Klein Collection Jens jacket (white) or ASOS tailored blazer (white)

Add paisley print: Stella McCartney paisley print blouse, MinkPink Prince of Persia cape top, MinkPink Prince of Persia paisley shorts (great with a white blazer for when the summer heat kicks in) or Thakoon paisley printed shorts (my favourite and perfect with a white blazer)

A pair of slouchy trousers: 10 Crosby Derek Lam cinched waist carpenter pants or Alice + Olivia print Arthur pants

Rachel Comey Hitch suede perforated booties or ASOS Aqua suede ankle boots

Topshop Peter Pan collar or Karl faux leather collar

Karen Walker Helter Skelter sunglasses or ASOS oversized retro sunglasses

*This happened to me when I was lined up for coffee at a stall in Borough Market. Pigeon poop in your hair is never an attractive event.

Running With The Fash Pack...What Audrey Wore Next

Miss Audrey Leighton Rogers on Day 3 of LFW in vintage everything (her dotty top was 50p at a charity shop and her diaphanous black, err, coat? was from the Salvation Army shop). Her boots are from Ebay.

p.s. someone asked about Audrey's gold flower ring from Day 1- it is from Topshop.

Miss Audrey Leighton Rogers on Day 2 of London Fashion Week.


Um, and I completely forgot to ask what she was wearing.....so I will ask tomorrow. Also I know someone wanted to know where she got her ring from in Day 1's photo- I will try to remember to ask tomorrow.

Running With The Fash Pack....What Audrey Wore Next

So, long-time blog readers will all know the lovely Audrey Leighton Rogers from Frassy. And if you aren't familiar with her blog, go take a peek NOW! Miss Audrey will be updating daily from LFW (which, um, some of us *Vanessa looks around innocently, whistling* may not be doing if the tiredness/tetchiness bug hits too hard) and has some amazing outfits which I will be documenting each day in a little feature called "What Audrey Wore Next".


Audrey's outfit from yesterday was a vintage blazer, dotty tights from Urban Outfitters, Topshop striped tunic, New Look laced boots and sweet little H&M hat. And in case you were wondering (I was!) Audrey was wearing a cute little pair of shorty shorts under her striped tunic ensuring her modesty remained completely intact getting off the railing!

Regulars readers need no introduction to the gorgeous boho/hippy luxe that is Audrey Leighton Rogers of Frassy.

Paris Street Style....Audrey Does Frassy!

Audrey Leighton Rogers (love that name!) was one of the lovely bloggers I had the pleasure of meeting on my short break to Paris. Audrey was featured on Teen Vogue's "Blogger of the Moment", you can read the interview here, she writes for a host of fashion publications including Amelia's magazine, has a fab blog called Frassy, interns and does short courses* on her holiday breaks (she is still a student) all while managing to be be wonderfully funny, smart and gorgeous. Oh yeah, and she is only 20 years old- arghhhh- I feel ancient!

After a long day trooping around Paris, I have to say that it was delightful listening to Audrey and Carl from Inspire the Starling chatting and giggling away on the Eurostar journey home (okay, so champagne may have been involved!).

*one of which was a photoshop course! hellllloooo despite (or maybe because of?) using it everyday I hate using photoshop so much that I would need to be paid to do the course!
