In the midst of my self portraiting my lovely man popped home with my lovely boy and we have some fabulous true to form Fashion and Frank shots - it felt soooooo lovely to be back with my boys having some fun.
Have had the maddest week at work, 2 am finishes, hair pulling, teeth grinding, madness and then today the sun shone, the weekend is here, at home and the world is all back where it should be.
Have a very good weekend my fashion friends xx
For those of you who think we are just soo well behaved .......
I think he loves his Mum
Frankie being so so so good x
There is a surprise in this outfit and i will post it on Tuesday - anyone who guesses and there is a clue above ... fashion points all round, in the meantime - Mummy went to Lanvin - head to toe - all in the sale preview - thank you Roman, barr the skirt which i have had a while and is also, yep, wait for it Lanvin. Borsolino hat xx
The Frankie pictures just make me go awwwww....he looks so happy to be with you! Seriously gorgeous outfit too!
ReplyDeleteOh he really does love his mum! What a beautiful skirt, it's the perfect fit and flare. But 2.00am? Oh my, that would kill me nowadays! Rest up this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThey make me go aww too deja isnt he just the most gorgeous boy xx
ReplyDeleteHe does - sooooo sweet - and it nearly did - god so grumpy this week i feel like a weight is lifted - will all kick off again in two weeks but at least i have a rest (??) in the meantime - after london this weekend that is - but at least that is leisure or at the very least some bubbles and pleasure xx
I popped over to wish you a good weekend and found a new post!!! Oh, happy days. :)
ReplyDeleteThe outfit is gorgeous as always, so which piece is your design? Coat or blouse? I'm just guessing and probably totally wrong...
Frankie is totally a fashion-minded boy - can't even imagine wearing heels with my baby, I'd be kissing the ground within seconds. :D
Have a wonderful weekend and relax big time! Hopefully all the stress was worth it.

Oh Natalia that is so sweet i am afraid it is all Albers today but i am picking up two skirts this weekend - most cool - isnt he good he is very gentle with me - not with Mr - it is like he knows i am more fragile and have silly things like heels on - you have a wonderful weekend too xx
ReplyDeleteFrank needs to have a chat with Ossy, teach him not to pull me all over the place when I'm in heels. :) Your fashion project is getting more and more interesting and exciting - I'm very curious to see the new designs.
DeleteP.S. How did you manage to get reply button to blogger?
Natalia i have no idea it just appeared?? but it is quite cool and i had no idea what to do with it till you just used it so there you go - live and learn xx
DeleteClaire, I don't know where to begin. I've been through these photos three times already. Love everything about your outfit and let me tell you something: the style and hem of that gorgeous skirt paired with this kind of boots is one of the most stylish and elegant combinations in my opinion. And the colour of the coat is so beautiful! Have a wonderful weekend! xo
ReplyDeleteAda
PS: Frank looks adorable as usual :)
Ada thank you so very much and you xx
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your bubbly and time in London, glad to see Frank is doing well!
ReplyDeleteWe are quasi twins today, I wore my hat and red coat today too! Love the skirt, it looks great on you.
Frankie is back and he loves his Mom a lot!!! Look at his face! He is in heaven!! hmmm, hmmmm i can't really tell what the surprise about this gorgeus outfit could be so I better stay tuned as always!!!
ReplyDeleteOh Francesca you will just have to see (hope it lives up to expectations!!) have a very fab one xx

ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!

ReplyDeleteooooh yes frank loves you, so supercute pictures! and oh boy i love that midiskirt-top-boots-hat-superfabulous combo;) it seems you have spring in winter too there;)
ReplyDeletekiss,mary
I know he is supercute - the weather was really warm and odd and now it is way cold and super sun shiney - and that is the best weather of all xx
DeleteYou look so lovely as always, and Frank is adorable, I love the photos where he's snuggling up to you, so cute!
ReplyDeleteI know i love them too Andrea - have a good weekend x
DeleteI think Frankie not just love his mum, but adores her ;)He is all around you like a ivy around tree.

You look amazing as always. You styled that midi skirt so well.
ReplyDeletewww.justpatience.com
i think this is what you do best, 70's, you always look so stylish and perfect! and you absolutely know how to put a 70's look together! and all with a twist
ReplyDeleteMrs K - i agree with you - it is the look i feel most confident and happy in - i think i am learning to stick with what i love rather than what is current, i have always loved vintage imagery and clothing but with a bad perfume allergy i cant indulge, i think this is why i am loving the design and then taking modern pieces that prob reference vintage and then mixing it not too literally is where i am at my happiest xx
DeleteThis is a really glamorous 70's look and I love it. The color pairings are so rich and beautiful and your hair looks amazing. I don't know what that red ring is in one of those shots, but I love it with this outfit. It's such a small touch I know, but those are what can really pull an outfit from "nice" to "fabulous" for me. And Frankie is just such a love muffin. Just too cute. Hope you get some well earned rest for the weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely comment - it is the lips ring by Solange Azagury Partridge and it was def intended so thank you so much for noticing the tie in colour wise with the coat x
DeleteYou always look amazing and chic! You have an amazing wardrobe. Send my love to Frank. xx
ReplyDeleteOh he def sends it back - loves the girls does our frank! x
DeleteThe skirt is so multi-functional.
ReplyDeleteEAK
Have a great saturday claire!
ReplyDeleteThanks Francesca - it was pretty fab xx
DeleteEvery outfit that you put on just looks impeccably polished and sophisticated. I'm in awe!

DeleteHonestly that top image sells Lanvin better than any Lanvin ad I've ever seen save the video I'm partial to of Alber Elbaz dancing with the models! I am tweeting your picture right now--so adorable Claire. Looks like you are having lots of fun in the new year and that's a good thing!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!

You are the best Mary Jo thanks so much xx
DeleteYou look gorgeous; love your outfit and your boots!;) Wonderful weekend to you and Frankie!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sharda and you too x
DeleteYay for Frank! He is such a cutie pie! We just got our pup back. She was on a vacation with Grandpa. I'm so happy to have snuggle time again!
ReplyDeleteYou must have missed her there is nothing like a doggy cuddle x
DeleteYou look amazing! Love your coat and your dog is just adorable <3
ReplyDeleteOh, that Borsolino is a beauty! It looks like such a gorgeous day as well. -xx
ReplyDeleteYou look absolutely wonderful! LOVE your outfit <3
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to Frank and Claire, I hope you are enjoying a relaxing w-e after the week madness at work (which I totally understand: I came back last week from 3 weeks off - a shock). This look is simply perfect for your style: I think it's not easy to wear and style midi skirts and you put together a beautiful ensemble. I particularly like the silky top and I decided that I should wear silk more often as it's so easy and elegant.
ReplyDeleteI only just started wearing silk blouses in the last couple of years and they really are fabulously easy dress up dress down - have a good week xx
DeletePerhaps because it's Monday but I cannot see the clue Claire! But what I can see us how fabulous you look in head to toe Lanvin. I'm totally a fan.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paola it is a very small clue will be posting tomorrow x
DeleteLove your outfit and your dog is adorable.
ReplyDeleteWe got a brand new puppy this week and it has been manic as a result in our household !

Aaah - good luck - they are special years xx
DeleteI knew you had a story like mine, I simply knew it!! Have a nice week claire!
ReplyDeletehaha Francesca - what are those women like! you too xx
DeleteLove the outfit, especially the style of the skirt and the colour combinations. Is the secret the lining of the coat being the same fabric as the shirt I wonder? Still can't believe your are outside with bare arms in the English winter. I would be wearing a wool spencer!!! Luv, Mum xx
ReplyDeleteOh very well done mum yes you have it in one!! You know me fashion and frivolity over all function! x
DeleteMmh AND actually I (spontaneously) can't help BUT see in your bare arms an as early as delightful kind of Spring § Summer's foreshadowing Dear ("Kind aesthete's smile") !
ReplyDeleteà Bientôt, Antoine
