à bientôt j'espère‎ & more lovely things soon,

{behind the scenes: style me romy}



. . . always adore backstage photos and discovering the blogs of stylists -- most recently, style me romy, the blog of sydney-based romy frydma, with an insider's look at favourite brands, fashion websites and photo shoots, as well as glimpses behind the scenes, including a favourite chris colls shoot in which aussie model miranda kerr shares a few of her favourite things . . .

{the crested blazer}

The crested blazer had been adapted from its traditional English schoolboy and well-bred, aristocratic origins to become a part of the season’s preppy, collegiate look, along with wellies, tartan and plaid, and elements of the Equestrian Style.

Paired with jeans and a silk blouse and worn with a casual elegance, the sharp, blue-blooded tailoring of the crested blazer is no longer quaint and Old World, but stylish and thoroughly modern.
