I'm Watching You: Christopher Kane x Topshop Hoodie

Come on, everyone else is already starting their year-end sales... so why are YOU not on sale yet?  I may have been completely spoilt by the discounts abound this year, but there's no reason to continue to deprive me of this piece of Christopher Kane greatness which didn't even make the Singapore store *pout*

Reliving My Childhood #2

Maybe I've reached a personal limit on studs, rivets and embellishments, but am just not as excited about the Christopher Kane for Topshop as when I first saw it. The collection (due to launch Oct 1 in Singapore) is still lush, but since Kane debuted SS2010, I've found myself daydreaming in gingham, not studs. In particular, I'm fantasizing about a Kane-inspired gingham chiffon cheongsam with sheer panels. Anyone know a brilliant tailor?

Cheap Thrill: Christopher Kane

Festival fashion anyone?  No Glastonbury equivalents here but I'm still tempted by the prospect of anything Christopher Kane for under a tenner!  We certainly have enough rain here to justify a cute poncho while I sloooowly save up for a Burberry trench ;)

Adding to the bargain value of this unisex, free-size poncho, it can be laid flat as a groundsheet (picnic!) and proceeds go to the Children's Cancer Trust in the UK.   

The Miller sisters' Twenty8twelve have contributed a prettier b&w style, but I'm personally hankering for a bit of Scottish edge.  {pc: guardian}
