the new New Look

Last Friday I attended the breakfast event for the New Look flagship store opening in London. The first thing that struck me was how spacious the shop is inside —never judge a store by it's entrance. You walk into a seemingly regular shop with some accessories and clothes and tills but as soon as you begin to ascend to the first, second and third floors more and more space opens up. But there were three aspects about the shop that really made me begin to love it. 1. It has a Starbucks —in my book any place with a Starbucks is a good place 2. Menswear is neither at the bottom nor at the top floor but on the second floor so boyfriends can have a break after floors G and 1 but right before the grand finale. 3. This grand finale consists on a massive SHOE floor where anything from pumps to flats to brogues find their place. Even I felt slightly taken-aback by this last floor both by the size of it and by the huge selection of shoes. These below are soVIPzone's New Look must-buys for the season.

And, of course, I had to get a few pieces for myself. Only for testing purposes, you know. I chose all four items because they have character but they work in many different ways too. I am specially excited about wearing the checked jacket —possibly as part of a Sartorial Ensemble for LFW. And I'm wearing the tweed waistcoat today, woop!
