«The LaQuan Smith muse is a woman who appreciates glamour; someone who is not afraid to dress up in the middle of the day just to run her errands “like a boss woman should.”» – Laquan Smith
I am such a big fan of the work of Laquan Smith. His clothes are sexy and fun to go out with. Here you see me on the streets of London, my happy place, during the day, running some errands before going out. My favorite coat of the season is keeping me nicely warm.
My look: Belted padded hooded shell coat
by Alaïa, cold-shoulder twill halterneck midi dress by LaQuan Smith, limited edition Maria Frou Alta satin platform pumps, and Paloma mini bag with flamenco strass, both by Christian Louboutin (Flamencaba collection), Clash de Cartier bracelet MM in white gold by Cartier, embellished leather belt, embellished clip-on earrings, embellished choker, and heart necklace, all by Alessandra Rich.
LoL, Sandra

I am on my way to London with my beloved belted padded hooded shell coat. When it arrived at my doorstep, I was pretty hesitant, but after waiting a few days, I knew this will be THE coat of the season.
Pieter Mulier‘s Alaïa collections are directional but wearable – there’s an art in that balance that only the most skilled designers can achieve. This shell coat has oversized lapels and is padded to enhance the powerful silhouette. The Maison always draws attention to the waist so I am sure to knot the belt.
It arrives in a pouch (how great is this for travelling) and can be folded into a small little piece. Its oversized hood as well as its water-repellent material make it the perfect companion in cold and wet weather. I have never taken an umbrella since then.
