This post is for my darling friend Zara, she of ‘caramel- raisin’ complexion, completely addicted to fashion and like me, dairy intolerant.
After being mocked in a certain London bar beginning with ‘M’ for editing out the Creme-de-frais in a cocktail, avoiding any edibles described as such, seems the sensible thing to do. Luckily for us, Cafe coloured clothing and delectable beauty treats are easily found. For me, the cream of the crop includes:
(Left-Right) Burberry Trench, Yves Saint Laurent leopard scarf, Miu Miu skirt, Stella McCartney Sandals, Miu Miu dress, Marc Jacobs clutch, Miu Miu platform sandals and PS1 Tote by Proenza Schouler)
Neutrals are usually reserved for the summer months yet the rich and creamy tones of cafe au lait, cappuccino and crème caramel are ideal for updating a winter wardrobe, work well with Spring/Summer’s neon trend and are perfect for adding a freshness to February, see the flash of yellow on the iconic Burberry trench.
And as far as beauty is concered, Laura Merciers Creme Brulee hand crème is a complete commodity. It smells divine and soothes skin against the harsh winter cold. I would choose this sweet treat over the real thing any day!
Vaseline has also found its way into my handbag... never a fan, I always favoured pricier products, until now. Since launching a limited edition version, i've favoured the little round tin.
