WEDNESDAY WISHLIST

Chloé

This beautiful fitted silk blazer from Chloé deserves a spot in my wardrobe with the promise that I will probably wear it alongside absolutely everything I own as that is just how much I love it. A charmingly sophisticated, yet perfectly minimalist to dress up and down while still looking classy - perfect alongside a pair of skinny jeans or tailored trousers and heels.

Delpozo SS14

How have I only just come across Delpozo? Both the top and the shorts fit my personal style to a T. I would definitely wear the top with my pair of leather pants, and the shorts with a nicely cut black blazer with a light grey blouse or shirt underneath. Thoughts?

I know this is kind of wild, and I don't think this would suit me at all, but there's something beautiful about these pleated trousers which caught my eye immediately. The closest garment I own to this is a pair of harem-ish style tweet trousers from Chloê, I don't own anything camel, either. According to Jan's American Vogue, Anna Wintour has stated that 2014 is a year to try new things, and express your personality on your sleeve.

Diptyque in Lavender

I love candles. They set the scene whether it's a romantic night for two, the key to a beautifully aromatic scent filling the whole house with beauty during the day, or the extra decorative piece added to a coffee table or mantel piece.

Along with the rose, Lavender is also a scent that I adore; maybe it brings back all the nostalgia of the lavender potpourri of my grandmother's place. It's not only an naturally delicate scent, but burning lavender oil before sleeping is one method to rest assure you of a good night's sleep.

STYLE ICON: Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo

"A timely elegance mixed with the contemporary of a New York Chic"

If I could snap my fingers and have the wardrobe of someone else in an instant, it would be Olivia Palermo. A timely elegance mixed with the contemporary of a New York Chic.

I've been spying on Olivia Palermo's fashion since The City, admiring her impeccable eye for garment harmony, and the way she is able to cleverly uphold a classic look and mixed with modern overlying garments and accessories, making her whole look timeless - whether it is a textured Chanel-Chanel (before Lagerfeld) blazer and short-shorts or trousers (See photos 5 and 7), or a sixties inspired shift-dress with statement heels and jewellery (see photos 2 and 8).

I love the way she generally pieces monochromatic simplistic garments together, and then jazzes the whole look up with either a textured clutch (see photo 3), or a statement necklace (see photo 8) to give it the whole look some colour and movement.
