The cold Tate Modern concrete floor and its industrial aesthetic proved to be the perfect backdrop for yesterday's acid coloured outfit. I went there yesterday for the Topshop show, which turned out to be massively overbooked and resulted in around 60 people not being let in, inlcuding myself. So no sequin burgundy pencil skirts and boxy jackets for me. At least I got to meet some wonderful bloggers such as Sandra from 5inchandup, one of my absolute top 3 favourites.

When it comes to jewellery, I love statement pieces, natural stones and vintage gold. Together with the clutch, this bracelet, courtesy of Monnier Frères, gave this outfit that touch of sophistication it needed.

I'm not sure how many of you will like this outfit but I'm completely crazy about it. It sounds quite laughable when I say this but I dreamed about it and had to wear it immediately the next day. As much as I love this Isabel Marant numbered top, I find it surprisingly difficult to combine without looking like the American flag, which in regards to blasted Sandy, might be a perfect way to pay tribute to the country that I lived in for 5 years.

This Marques Almeida jacket though is literally the other pea in the pod to this top. They go together like bread and butter. In order to avoid my look going totally down grunge lane, I decided to pair it with one of my most treasured skirts and these dearly loved but extremely painful Thakoon boots.

I really hope everyone from the U.S. reading this is safe and dry. I am really worried about my family in new Jersey and everyone living on the East Coast; a 200 year old tree just narrowly missed my mom's house while crashing down onto our lawn!
