IRIS is delighted to have teamed up with super stylist Laura Fantacci of must-read wearing it today blog, and co founder of Wardrobe Icons. In our three part series, Laura picks her favourite pieces from IRIS, and shows how to buy into the new season’s trends.
Winter White
“At London Fashion Week last year, I bought a white coat. I thought it would be totally impractical, but it turned out to be an instant outfit enhancer and not impractical at all. It gives you an amazing glow – perfect to make the most of a fading tan! It looks particularly great with denim, grey and tan.”
“I love the simplicity of this coat. It’s not too precious – there are no lapels, no buttons. The fact that it hasn’t got any detail means it won’t date, so a great investment buy. It would look great with faded denim and flats. I love layering white on white in the Winter.”
“I hate things that are clingy. This top fits perfectly on the shoulders then flares out. The lace detail gives it a romantic feel, which is a big trend this season. I also love how the sleeves sit on the arm.”
“Denim with white always looks very cool. I like the idea of pairing a boyfriend jean with a smarter shoe and a relaxed sweater – it creates a lovely balance. This is a perfect look for the weekend – you could pair it with flats for a more casual feel.”
ISABEL MARANT: Pealman Dalmation High Heel
“These Isabel Marant heels are the most comfortable shoes. She does this style every season. They have a leg lengthening effect – and I really like the subtle animal print.”
Laura on Jewellery:
“Last season it was all about the earrings – this season its all about the wrists! I love layering up bracelets – it prolongs the gypsy, Summer holiday look. The Isabel Marant jewellery is a great price point too.”
