3 X More Dash Than Cash
It's not always about "investment" dressing.

It’s not always about “investment” dressing.
Perusing my favourite online fashion sites early on a weekend morning is my kind of ritual. I read the tabloids, look at the celebrities and catch up on street style – it is not an intellectual moment but it does make for a balanced perspective. All brain work when it comes to reading can be too much; a little lightweight does us all good. It’s where I find ideas, inspiration and prompts. I subscribe to the view of “not much new under the sun: and when it comes to fashion, I believe it to be very true.
There are a time and place for what the Brits call, “High Street” fashion. “High Street” means cheaper and more accessible clothing – The Parisians are good at it, as are the Spanish and the Swedes. Think Zara, Mango and H&M.
As I was scrolling through who is wearing what I saw a celebrity in a jacket from Mango. She looked wonderful and so I went searching. Back in the day I would often pop into the Regent Street store and find some winners; recently, Mango has slipped my mind. Until this morning and I found their jackets. I found so many to love but stuck with three for now. I don’t expect they will last forever but nor do I want them too – they add a new perspective and fun to my more traditional pieces.
The best looks are...
