Fashion and Franks Fave Fashionistas - Uliana Sergienko

This week it is the turn of the Russians again, Uliana Sergienko, this lady owns her own style.  Designer, photographer and bloggers muse.  I feel she is somewhat single-handedly responsible for the revival of the nipped waist, full skirt silhouette.  She is certainly my inspiration when it comes to this season - in fact i purchased my own full skirt this weekend for fall and i will be channelling Uliana all the way.  So here she is our very own little perfect Russian doll xx


Theres that silhouette!!


She knows her sunglasses


Love that Olympia le Tan clutch and the cable knit - fabulous


So graceful


Adore the colour, the print, the rolled sleeves, the silhouette and the shoes, oh the shoes


Helllooo Hat! and oh the handbag


And then there was another hat - and that Leica camera 


A different silhouette and one she is also fond of - still strongly her own ladylike retro core style


Austere? never - the lipstick just lifts 

*****

And finally i thought i had long thick hair - how fab is this plait??? xx

    Oh the shoes are super comfy, I can't wait to wear them out - er - but nothing on the horizon - hmm too dressy to take the bins out?

  24. She definitely has a style of her own and I have so many favorite pictures of her! Thank you for the thoughtful comment..regarding marriage. I think it's important for me to find the person who knows what they want because if they're still figuring out who they are, it means the relationship they enter will be very uncertain. xoxoxoxo
