I am loving leather

At first I thought the leather craze was slightly too biker chic for me but as my distinct taste changes I must admit I am starting to love the look. Isabelle Marant's items are particularly edible. The french gem originally modeled but later made her way to direct the massive agency elite. She currently lives in PARIS with husband and son working hard on her own label. I only first encountered her 2 years or so ago and each collection has yet failed to disappoint.

I have been on a search for some leather trousers...which might I add work perfectly for this season (being wind proof and all) but sadly all I seem to try fail to give me 'the buzz'. I did however find a seriously swanky jacket in Harvey Nicks last night, yummy! I like the studs on the shoulders and it doesn't feel too clumpy. Returning home I showed it to some friend both were mildly unimpressed saying it was short and made me look like I was wearing a 5 year olds coat. Thanks Haz and Charlie :) My vice however is the fact they are indeed male, sorry to male readers some of whom I am sure have brilliant dress sense but a majority of my boysies seem to really not care :( My girls however, well, they are on another level and have all agreed the jacket is......... fabulous.
