French actress Léa Sedoux is the beautiful face in this season’s Rag & Bone advertising campaign. Do you remember her in Woody Allen’s, Midnight in Paris?

I have been meaning to chat about Rag & Bone for a while now but somehow other ideas have managed to get in the way… This weekend I am shopping Rag & Bone for an upcoming holiday at the end of the month…

I need some new casual bits and pieces… ‘Need’ probably isn’t the appropriate word here… but ‘would’ really like’… ‘am in the mood for’… ‘could do with a fashion fix’… is how I’m thinking… and Rag & Bone is one of my favourite go-to brands when I want something that’s of the moment and casual.

The daughters introduced me to Rag & Bone some years ago and what I like about their design is that it not only suits their age group but also mine… and you know the one I mean… the ‘not so easy bracket’ to find something that works… not too young and not too old…

Their jackets fit… not too small and not too large… the styles aren’t so edgy that they look ridiculous but not so classic that I feel as if I am wearing granny’s gear.

The pants don’t hang too low nor are they too ripped and they are generous enough in the hips when they need to be… The sweaters are cute… with a little difference here and there to make them fun

The tee-shirts are my very favourites… they wash and wear well… loose enough to cover what needs to be covered, with enough sleeve so as not to feel over exposed and a high enough neckline to be flattering. I know a tee-shirt is a simple item, but finding the right one has always been a challenge for me…

Last season I stocked up on black, navy and white tee-shirts and I found a fantastic khaki jacket… I have worn that jacket every day before the temperatures climbed… and the tee-shirts… they are never off my back… As for the Newbury boots… along with The Acne’s and The Isabel Marant’s… I don’t look any further…

You may have gathered… I am a Rag & Bone fan… xv
