...casual Friday.

Today (inspired by our wonderful evening with the LK Bennett crew) we added leather look trousers, belts and low-heeled courts (Our new secret weapon and addition to any outfit!) to our office look. Happy Jubilee weekend everybody! xox




...LK Bennett.


Last night we moseyed over to the University Womens Club in Mayfair for an LK Bennett private viewing for 'Dressing for Success'. All of the outfits on show were beautifully curated; as well as the amazing shoes and handbags (LK Bennett do these very well!) they had gorgeous shirts and dresses that manage to stay on the right side of flirty without compromising on the 'serious lady of business' image. Our personal favourite hands down was the tight leather pants (Letta Trousers - see below) with the navy loose silk shirt (Star Top - see below) and vertiginous heels. Aaaamazing! So much so that both of us took inspiration and are wearing variants of this outfit to the office today, go us!


Our top 5 items from the evening:

 

1. Star Top



2. Letta Trousers 



3. Coral Lagoon boots
    Simple yet chic daytime summer boots.


4. Lucie Sandal
   Totally amazing summer wedges.



5. The Hiley Dress
    One of LK Bennett's signature pieces. Flattering, understated yet glamorous and timeless.






A highlight of the evening was having the pleasure of meeting and speaking with the Head of Marketing and Events for LK Bennett, Nick Flynn (fashion royalty!). His passion for fashion, style and knowledge were inspiring. Here is a picture of us with the man himself!

Overall we had a lot of fun gawping at the gorgeous clothes and mingling with other London fashionistas, taking away with us the secrets of dressing for success!
