Hot on the Highstreet Week 224

Posted on by

Is September too early to start a Christmas wish list? When I do write one, Poplin pyjamas will be at the top.

Poplin was founded by Lucy Guinness to offer sophisticated women lounge/sleepwear that would perfectly blend function and form – letting them look and feel amazing.

After graduating from Oxford, Lucy won a scholarship to study History of Fashion at London’s Courtauld Institute of Art. Deep in the fashion archives of famous museum collections, examining antique and vintage garments, she found inspiration to develop a contemporary line of pieces that would be worn and loved until they were old and threadbare.

In 2010 her sense of adventure led her to live in India; she now divides her time between Bombay and London. Poplin pyjamas combine Lucy’s love of fashion and travel, the perfect tailored suit to sleep in whilst away from home.

I love the neon trimmed classic pyjamas and the luxurious silky bridal PJs that come complete with a hand-embroidered monogram.

Beautifully tailored and timeless, a pair of Poplin pyjamas will ensure you are in style night and day.

Prices start from £100.

Whistles always used to be one of my favourite highstreet stores with a range of sophisticated but wearable clothes and accessories. But over the last year I haven’t been inspired by the collections of mediocre patterns garments and unexciting jewellery. I’m glad to say my confidence has been restored this winter with a wave of new chic clothes and wonderfully simple but stylish bags and shoes. The prices have risen slightly but this can be noticed on the pricetags of nearly every highlight brand.

My highlights this season? The perfectly cool, French inspired ‘Comme Ci Comme Ca’ jersey sweatshirt, grey with bold navy print across the front. A seriously comfortable, effortless item for any occasion… better worn baggy. I also love the classic clutches that feature every season in a variety of hues. The Rivington Clutch in the large size is my particular favourite. For a more personal touch visit Dover Street Market or St Christopher’s Place shop where they will monogram your initials for you.
