Today, my first A/W trends article is published. I have been waiting 10 years to write A/W and I’ve finally done it. I would have liked to have dedicated more time to it, but if I’d taken the time I needed it would have been way past the moment for the season’s introduction. Perhaps it’s a good thing so I couldn’t over-think it.

But crikey! The joy of writing something I’ve been researching and annotating and brainstorming and collaging for the last 10 years. The aching pleasure of flexing my fashion bones again. The plaid, the shearling, the plum, the tangerine. AUTUMN/WINTER I LOVE YOU!

A good moment for this young and jaded fashionista.
