Let’s Play

Comme Des Garçons Play Long-Sleeve Stripe T-Shirt | COS Black Mohair & Wool Cardigan | Cheap Monday Thrift Destroyed Boyfriend Jeans (brand since closed) | Adidas Originals Stan Smith Trainers c/o MonShowroom* | CF Concept Tusk Necklace in Gold | Grey Fedora (found on Portobello Road) | Vintage Black Leather Belt (found on eBay)

The Comme Des Garçons Play collection is brilliant; stripe t-shirts and shirts, plain white tees, cute cardigans and jumpers, and (their collaboration with Converse) Chuck Taylor plimsolls, all embellished with the iconic Play heart. I bought my stripe t-shirt in Paris from the Comme Des Garçons Play shop in Le Marais, whilst there for Paris Fashion Week last October. It was on my wish list for ages and I’m so glad I have one of my own at last. Be warned, they come up small in size, so go one up from your usual size; I was lucky that the girls in the store warned me. I’ve kept the styling simple and casual for this look but it would look equally cool with a suit.

I’ve also broken out some new white kicks! My old Stan Smiths were starting to look a bit grubby. Ahhh, I love a fresh pair of trainers.

Style&Minimalism x Ille De Cocos Part IV

Ille De Cocos Merino Roll Neck Rib Sweater in Dark Grey Marl | Lemaire x UNIQLO Rayon Wide Leg Trousers in Navy | Topshop Herringbone Chambray Shirt in Pale Blue | PB 0110 Half-Moon Bag in Navy | Adidas Originals Stan Smith Trainers | Jenny Sweetnam Statement Earring

I’m wearing Ille De Cocos‘ amazing grey roll-neck again but this time with a more casual look, with loose trousers and trainers. Roll-necks are so versatile and an essential in any winter wardrobe. I felt so warm and comfortable in this one. The knit has a springy feel, so whilst it’s chunky and warm, it’s also easy to move around in.

I chose a loose bun for this look so I could show off this incredible statement earring by one of my favourite London jewellery designers Jenny Sweetnam, a very talented lady. Sophia made it look so easy, I always think my hair is so difficult to work with but she said otherwise, so it just goes to show it just takes practise.

As with the other looks from my styling collaboration with Ille de Cocos, you’ll find them on their website.
