m.i.a.

apologies for our absence of late. things have been frantic in the savvy camp, combined with the fact that many londoners have yet to learn how to layer well or purchase a coat that will last them longer than 2 months of a season. the number of poorly made wool coats (most of them in houndstooth check) strutting raggedly up and down the high street is outrageously high. in addition, at least a 1/2 dozen of fabulously dressed people have declined our request to photograph them. londoners appear to have a streak of shyness which stilts the life of the online fashion blogger. but enough excuses, and on with the show....

ever your eye on the street,

savvy london

you never know until you try. try try!!! bright colors in winter make everyone smile. maybe start with something mildly bright-remember it can be "bright" in texture, as in the glimmer of a metallic brocade dress/skirt or shiny shoe. you may surprise yourself...and make others smile.

ah yes, it's pretty frustrating when someone fabulous declines to be photographed. but you have great pictures on here!
