JACKET

Claire: This dress I got for a fiver from Ebay, the label is in Japanese so I have no idea of the make, but I love it because its like a proper Japanese schoolgirl dress, very naughty, and a bit too short! The jacket is real fur, apparently its made of muscat – I have no idea what that is but they make very warm snuggly coats! I get why people don’t approve of fur, but personally I don’t see the difference between that and eating meat, neither are essential and its up to the individual.

BAG

Claire: So, basically its all about the bag! This is my favourite thing that I own, it looks like a punk Chanel, its awesome. Its too ostentatious to wear with much though, but definitely livens up a dull outfit. Sylvie’s shoes are so cute, she can’t even walk yet and she has better trainers than I do!

PLAYSUIT

Claire: This playsuit is one of the most versatile things that I own, its from Kate Moss’s first collection for Topshop so its a few years old now and I still love it. Its great in the summer with bare legs and sandals, or in the winter with big boots and thick tights – or for a night out with heels. You get the picture! I wear these boots almost every day, they are a bit more feminine than most of the worker boots around- more like old style hobnail school boots like they wore in the original St Trinians films. Ive just realised there is a bit of a schoolgirl theme going on in my wardrobe- worrying perhaps? Sylvie looks adorable in her bear suit- I love the little paws on the feet! People stop us in the street and coo over her whenever she wears it.
