Gucci Hat by Night

Hello my fellow fashion lovers well this is what i wore to the fashion do last Monday - it was at the Coutts building on the Strand and i have to say i rather enjoyed it - the clothes were fab and the whole thing was rather exciting - being a fashion do i did not feel silly with a hat on by night - in fact i felt quite fashion!  So on that note - we are trying the flash - photography tips always welcome!! xx


I got the scarf - i told you Herself, now myself





Fashion question - do you want me to list where the items are from??  I do believe the interest is in the styling but sometimes i just want to know where to get something i love - thoughts on a postcard ...

xx

Consensus seems so far to list - so here we go - Marc Jacobs 3 piece suit and i will do a closeup one day to show you the detailing - amazing, YSL shoes, Herself Scarf, Marc Jacobs bag, Gucci hat

    yes i am always interested in what the items are from, sometimes i think i know the brand but i just want to be sure! i always look at the brands when i see an interesting piece! BTW is that a part of your interior! if so, you have to do something with it because it rocks! an egg chair, how fabulous is that

    What an amazing suit Claire! I love Marc Jacobs {just tracked down a mint pair of MJ shoes I wanted a couple of years ago and was talked out of...now they are mine!} I was thinking of you too! I was shopping in Malibu and came across all these fab Eugenia Kim hats...and yet, I told the sales girl my heart was sort of set on the Gucci one. Although I think that I would never look half as good as you do in yours! Can't wait to see what you have designed, I'm sure it will be fab!

    Oh Claire, I don't know where to start to comment: your beautiful outfit or your home decor full of Fornasetti? I'm also interested in knowing the brands as it allows people to discover new ones...for instance, I would love one of the chic Herself scarves 'myself'...!

    First off, let me say that I love that chair. I have been eying a blue one for the longest time. It would be nice to know where the items are from. You look fabulous as always. Love the shoes!

    Oh Natalia - 2 confessions - one i am afraid i look at the pics!! Two - my friend Anna does the odd trim - she has a salon in Dorking - Dare and i have to say i had just cut the front myself just before this pic - i do leave the back to her - but i dont do it very often so it really should be a secret shocking lack of maintenance - my shampoo and conditioner are really good - faith in nature and the water here is spring fed so i think that makes a difference i do not wash my hair in London at all xx

    Herself scarf? Did you design this? Do tell more. The listing is good and you look as wonderful as always. Flash photography - soft box is key - even for on camera flash, something like this http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=iyT&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1906&bih=982&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=IRud4eQa6DOx0M:&imgrefurl=http://photo-tips-online.com/review/lumiquest-softbox-iii-flash-diffuser/&docid=kiIIUDBwaX3CfM&imgurl=http://photo-tips-online.com/review/lumiquest-softbox-iii-flash-diffuser/images/small/lumiquest-softbox-iii-flash-diffuser-2.jpg&w=250&h=250&ei=ufXTTt79B46WOq_35I0P&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=617&vpy=141&dur=218&hovh=200&hovw=200&tx=136&ty=104&sig=108502222244086819750&page=1&tbnh=124&tbnw=123&start=0&ndsp=69&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0

    Hi Claire, just came back to read the comment on hair. Dorking, really? This sounds like a hidden gem to me, I'm going to look into it as it's a lot closer than driving to Tumbridge Wells and she does a fab job with your hair. Thank you so much for sharing! Of course, I can say yet again that you shouldn't worry about your photos - you look wonderful and Mr does a great job!, but I remember you saying that you don't like being photographed and since I'm the same, I can understand the rest of the thinking process, too. But honestly, you do look amazing. x

    That's why I love a three piece suit on a woman! Because it's so incredibly sexy! Of course your fantastic sense of style has something to do with this image. The YSL shoes are fabulous, Claire! They made my heart skip a bit. Frank looks so dashing too. xoxo

    You look like you've stepped out of a fashion magazine! I'm in serious lust over your Gucci hat.

    If you're using an external flash, buy a plastic diffuser (looks like a white cap) and put it over your bulb. Angle your flash so it bounces against the wall so you won't get a dark shadow. You know what? I wouldn't give a damn about the flash. You look amazing!!
