Most Wanted : Jil Sander Market Bag

I don't think I need to say (again) how much I'm obsessing over the entire Jil Sander SS11 collection, but one stand-alone item has caused me to break out in jealousy sweats when I saw it hanging on the arms of a lucky few. This lust-worthy item is none other than the bright orange, transparent Market Acetate Bag. Made from leather and vinyl and retailing at about £90, this bag is whispering if not screaming my name. 

Even though £90 may be a little much for what is essentially a colourful shopping bag, on the plus side, I’ll never miss a phone call or email again because I can’t find my phone in my bag. Win! (Or so I keep telling myself).

Jil & Raf

It’s not unusual for a collection to send me into a dizzying frenzy – and I mean, heart-racing, sweaty palms frenzy. But Jil Sander’s Spring Ready to Wear collection – which is quite possibly the collection of the season, has sent me to new heights. As I sit here in my very wintery London abode, I have to physically stop myself from ditching all the black, grey & caramel hues that are currently taking over my wardrobe, and dive head first into some hyper-modern fluorescent.

Having lived in Raf Simons minimalistic heaven for the past several seasons, I (along with most fashion junkies) have been going Lady Gaga over the daringly overblown shapes in a palette of tangerine and fairy floss pink. I’m absolutely captivated by the simplicity of the T-shirt-and-ball-gown combo and major skirts teamed with minor shirts. I for one definitely cannot wait to sink my teeth into this revolutionary techno-couture.
