Roomy Denim

Hmm … what to wear for a trip to edgy Shoreditch, to visit the London store of Ally Capellino?

If you aren’t familiar with the brand, it is admired for the minimal contemporary styling of its bags, like these nappa leather rucksacks in spring colours.

Which (note to self) would work well with jeans and the New Balance gingham trainers I mentioned in my last post.

For spring/summer 2015, looser denim profiles are proliferating on the catwalk, so Toast has introduced a new cut: Artist Jeans are high-waisted in Japanese cotton selvedge denim. They come in sizes 6-18 and in regular and long options: these will do nicely for my day out!

The reason for the pilgrimage across town is that there has been a fresh delivery at Ally Capellino of silver Yoko rucksacks.

So here is my outfit for East London:

Toast Artist Jeans. Marks and Spencer two-tone bomber jacket. ASOS White Collection t-shirt. Superga Flatforms. Cos blue glass necklace.

And, of course, returning with the Ally Capellino Yoko rucksack.
