What Katie Wore

We’ve been invited to a party being held by cancer charity Trekstock tonight – they’ve just collaborated with some fantastic designers to launch the Trekstock Loves collection, which you can buy from Brown Focus with all profits going to Cancer Research. I especially like the House of Holland “nipple tee“.

Also, you’ve got to check out Katie’s wonderful new shoes from The Lavender Room, a tres stylish boutique in Brighton - aren’t they brilliant? Check out their site and I’ll take a close up next time she wears them. Oh, and she hasn’t put the Luella bag down since she bought it.

The missus is off out for a girly night tonight, although I shouldn’t imagine it will involve a pile of bags in the middle of a dance floor and inflatable phalli (not that it ever would) – she’s meeting her mum and her friend Heather for dinner in town. Which means I’ll get to spend some time at home, catching up with 24 and getting to know my new wine decanter. Awesome.

So, check out Katie’s new shoes! They’re the Stella McCartney one’s she got at TK Maxx at the weekend – I’ll get a close up shot of them next time she wears them. The dress is French Connection, the two-tone tights are American Apparel and the top is vintage. Very cool today Miss M.

Oh, and there’s a new post over on What You Wore – check out What Millie Wore.

Katie’s had the day off today. Because her agency’s called “Mother” everyone at her place gets an extra day of holiday the Monday after Mother’s Day. Nice eh? So she’s had a fun day pottering around London. She even came and met me for lunch which was lovely.

Here’s the fabulous Luella bag Katie picked up at a snip from TK Maxx yesterday, which she’s paired with Hoss Intropia necklace, vintage silk bed jacket and a beautiful pair of Kurt Geiger shoes (a present from me). See you tomorrow.

So, we’re on stale bread and water for the rest of the month after a rather big splurge this arvo. Katie’s outdone herself at TK Maxx, finding a Luella handbag (!) and some Stella McCartney shoes (OMG), which I’m sure you’ll be seeing at some point. And I’ve bought a load of junk I’ll never use – including a large decanter and a skipping rope. Seriously. A skipping rope, ladies and gentlemen.

Today Katie’s wearing Miss Selfridge shoes, incredibly cute Tabio sockettes, Motel Rocks top and a lovely Gail Hoppen coat. I suppose I had better go and do some skipping.

Here’s Katie in front of her framed vintage Vogue covers. No idea why this part of our little house has never featured on the blog – you’ve seen pretty much everywhere else.

Katie’s all dressed up for going out to dinner with her old uni friends. I’ve got some work (wine) to do and so shall be staying put. She wears a Hobbs skirt, Russell and Bromley boots,  leopard print body warmer from the Roman Road market (imagine a down market Eastenders, set in Eastern Europe, during a war) and a big lump of jewellery what I gived ‘er ages ago. Classy bird.

So, that’s the end of my first week in my new job. It’s been ace. Now time for the pub innit.

Katie’s off to see her friend Nats tonight and doesn’t she look nice. Especially those brilliant tights from Tartan Tights! The shoes are Office, the dress is Max C and the belt is another purchase from Katie’s life in Germany (long, long before she ever met a man like Joe Sinclair).

Ta ta. Have a lovely night.

Hiya! How are you all?

We had cheese last night, and lots of it. And a couple of cocktails at Lounge Lover. It was excellent.

Here’s Katie in a vintage green coat purchased when she lived in Germany, Studd miniskirt, Wolford tights, too cool Solea shoes and a “Nothing Tips Like a Cow” t-shirt  - a present from her boss Dylan’s trips to the States. Bizarrely good.

Doesn’t Katie look absolutely gorgeous in this pic? Beautiful. Although maybe a wee bit tired – it was taken early in the AM before she caught the train up to Nottingham.

Not sure if I mentioned this on the blog, but I quit smoking about three weeks ago. I say quit – I had a bit of a blip today and smoked a few ciggies. But I’ll definitely be back off them again tomorrow, I promise.

So today Katie is wearing a particularly multi-coloured outfit: Cos dress, River Island Tights, Day skirt and the free Mulberry bag from from London Fashion Week. Lovely.

We’ve finally got (a bit) of electricity, so the new job can properly begin! I’ve joined a brand new kind of marketing agency called Guided which looks set to be really exciting. I’ll let you know when our first bit of work comes out – give us time, we haven’t quite unpacked all the boxes yet or decided on what our agency pub is yet. Oh, and we’re based right by Spitalfields – so no more skanky tube for me. Double whoop.

Apologies for the very late post – it’s not my fault though – Katie’s been out for dinner without me. But she looks great – Gap dress, awesome tights from Tights Please and those Tabio big bow legwarmers with Kurt Geiger shoes.

Finally, there’s a new post on WYW – don’t forget to check out What Dennis Wore…

So, back in the UK and today was meant to be my first day in a new job. Exciting. But then a powercut wiped out the leccy in East London and so we’ve had to postpone until tomorrow. So I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow.

Sorry for the delayed post today but hopefully you’ll agree that’s it an especially good pic! Katie isn’t posing – I just took the photo while she was brushing the hair out of her eyes. Today she’s wearing American Apparel tights, Kurt Geiger shoes, Irwin & Jordan skirt and an excellent necklace from Jessica Dance.
