Colour Me In

If I was one to colour block, this is just how I'd like to do it...such a gorgeous, shiny, sunny look that seems really timeless. I th...

Joseph have caused me serious trauma recently as ever since I spied this epic leopard print rabbit fur coat in their autumn winter look book it's all I can think about. It's one of those things that I really believe would make my life complete, infinitely better, easier and, needless to say, chicer. Sadly, at over £1,200, I'll have to remain incomplete and miserable and resign myself to Topshop's faux leopard number or trawl through ebay in the hope of finding a musty, moth-eaten replica. <br /></div></div>
