Roosevelt, Prince Charming

I was in Grenoble last October when I spotted a Cambridge Satchel on my fellow nappy lover Esione of Beautifully Nappy. This was by no means the first time I’d set eyes on a Cambridge Satchel but it was the first time that I’d REALLY considered owning one.

The Cambridge satchel is very well put together. He exudes a dapper radiance and preppy character. With his matte finish and clean cut, he woos with his every stride. Primed with a subdued elegance, it’s impossible to imitate the snobbish character of the Cambridge Satchel and resultantly, I purchased one.

I call my Cambridge Satchel Roosevelt simply because it strikes me as a polished, well spoken gentleman with a bit of a hidden agenda. FDR maybe? I can’t say really. He reminds me of Chuck Bass only he’s rich in oxblood as opposed to the sheen of patent leather. Roosevelt has become my everyday Prince Charming. He was well worth every penny!

PPs: In line with my BMS, I’ve downloaded ‘7 minute workout’. I love the app and strongly recommend it if you’re interested in light exercise for your body.

Fashion Week Series: Emilia Wickstead

Emilia Wickstead is my latest discovery in the fashion realm and having just unearthed her remarkable talent, I’m disappointed in myself to say the least. This Central Saint Martin graduate has astounded me with her somewhat preppy collection and seeing as my style is what my friend, Mayuri, refers to as “Mrs President” it’s no surprise that Emilia Wickstead has sky-rocketed to the top of my designer watch list.

Supposing I was to interpret this Spring/Summer story, I’d make it one for the demure princess, her elegance speaking volumes that needn’t be garish; her class exemplary of why less is always more; and her body, an eternal beauty, never aging. From the structured pleats to the floral prints, this designer has nailed what it means to be a perfect woman.
