MNG by MANGO - Mission # 1



The challenge: Create a look of a favourite British style icon.

Talk about right up my alley...


Shirt: MNG for MANGO.  Jeans: J Brand.  Shades: Ray Ban (love how these fold up to nothing). Newsboy cap: H&M (similar here in suede but they have basic black or here).  Flats: Steve Madden (similars here or flat T-bars here and here). Note: This campaign is produced by Style Coalition and sponsored by jcpenney. 

Following on from this post launching the MNG for MANGO campaign, here's me channeling a fave Brit. 

Course I went with Alexa Chung: a fellow thrift shop lover (remember me posting here finding this fuzzy bag at a Salvation Army) plus we have similar triple strap flats.  Had mine for a good two years ish and still a favourite.  They are like bondage meets school girl all in one. Alexa's are Vivienne Westwood (of course).

I wore this MNG for MANGO victorian inspired blouse found here with baby pink ankle skinnies.

ps. Don't forget - one of YOU lot will come to Barcelona with me next month - effing brilliant I tell you  - enter here and good luck.



Next week I'll post the next style challenge.

  14. This is a very cool challenge! Most of my style icons are British... It would have been difficult for me to choose :D

    Love this monochrome outfit with a fierce leopard bag but I would never dare wearing it because stains are always attracted to my light colors pieces of clothes...

  23. Interesting. I would have loved to have seen you as Jean Shrimpton. I think your stunning looks and love of vintage would have been an excellent match for her style.
