Is it a tad presumptuous to rock up at a freelance writing job wearing a sweater that says “Editor in Chief”? Er, probably. It’s not the subtlest of messages to your actual Editor in Chief is it? I suppose as a general rule of thumb, going into work with your bosses job title written across your chest is a bit of a faux pas.
I would like you all to take a minute – or two – to imagine that awkward Monday morning meeting scenario.
Brilliant.
So yes, when I went to the office the other day I – perhaps rightfully – raised a few eyebrows. Note to self, one should wear sweaters with job titles that are ironic – i.e. Astronaut, Dolphin Trainer, Psychic, not Full Time Fashion Blogger etc. Oops.
Ok, so I may have had to move this particular sweater by GANT out of my “work wardrobe” pile and into the weekend-wear section of my closet. Oh well.
The sweater aside, let’s chat shoes – do you like ’em? I’m obsessed.
They’re from DUNE’s premium capsule range called BLACK. It’s a collection that consists of sophisticated footwear, that’s constructed from leathers and fabrics sourced within Europe – nice. These loafers are made from patent leather and pony-hair, so if you’ve been eying up designer flats by the likes of Philip Lim you will adore these – more affordable – pair by DUNE.
I’m layering my slouchy Twist and Tango jacket over my sweater and pairing the look with my Topshop super high waisted jeans.
