I've been looking on etsy for some interesting art to hang on some of the bare walls of the flat. I came across this from Field Trip and I absolutely love it. Perfect sentiment for the weekend.

So different yet both are so very stylish.

An unexpected way to wear stripes is on your trousers. I remember ages ago when Joseph trousers were the height of sophistication, I had a fabulous purple pair of tuxedo trousers with a black satin stripe down the side that I wore to death. I haven't seen anything similar but I love these modified Rag & Bone skinny jeans with the bright pops of colour. The hard part would be choosing one pair.

There's something undeniably sophisticated about the simplicity of classic stripes. They're easy to dress up or down and they work with just about everything from a striped jumper with your favourite blue jeans to a sequin little skirt. Here are a few pieces in classic black and white stripes with fun elements like a bold splash of pink or sequin detailing that have caught my eye.

I wa slucky enough to get a fabulous little Philippe Audibert bracelet for my birthday (thanks Mum!) and every day I fall in love with it  a little bit more. Trained as a sculptor and after experimenting with various materials, Philippe has struck fashion gold with his most recent collections of mixed metals.
