Oh wow! Where do I start? This is Yee Ping... She is Marc Jacobs Brand Specialist on Ladies Accessories. Today she is well and truly living her brand values... "Why?!" I hear you cry... need you ask! The girl is rocking current season Marc by Marc Jacobs , oh boy does she do it well. Hubba hubba is what I thought when I bumped into her on my way to work today. You see me and Yee work in the same place and I have never seen her rocking anything but her uniform black and I was bowled over to see her this morning.
She politely asked me to conceal her face as she was all fresh faced and no make up... so I kindly obliged. I sort of like the whole 'faceless subject' thing sometimes because I think it makes it very intriguing and mysterious, and you have to guess what the person might look like. Yee is very pretty before you ask...
Soooo back to the garms in question... I totally heart the whole lot! I love the way that she has juxtaposed a very prim, ladylike pussy bow blouse with an edgy neon orangey pink a-line skirt. My favourite part is the fact that the skirt is really stiff and rigid against the flimsy, frippery of the silk polkadot blouse. I adore the mash up of pretty-pretty polkadot being given a total bashing by the bold neon of the skirt. Even better is the fact she has toughened up such a feminine silhouette with sharp tailoring in brash black. Now I am not usually a fan of the ol' Ugg boot in a street style snap but it totally works here... "why, oh why??" you cry... because they are icy white and box fresh and look a little off with the Marc and the Mulberry. UH HUH HUH! I love a little off detail in an outfit, for me it is what makes it... and as Jenna Lyons of J Crew dresses by this mantra, I agree. Mainly because she is my idol, and I have a secret lady style crush on her... and if you google her you will understand my fashion fascination with her. Plus she has red hair, so that makes her a fashion god lady in my eyes...
Last, but oh sooo not least... ACCESSORIES! For me Yee has executed this perfectly, the Mulberry Polly Push Lock was one of my favourite styles of 2010-11 and it made me muchly sad I didn't get my little mitts on one, espesh since it didn't get repeated after it's two lovely seasons. In this situation I am loving it. I love a geeky, satchel style handbag and I think it finishes off the girlfest of Marc Jacobs perfectly. Oh and she has a Chanel brooch which totally feeds my hunger for the double C.
All in all rather delightful...
