Tapestry

Beret (Xmas present), Jeans (Charity shop), River Island crochet waistcoat and TopShop vest (January 2010 sales), Silver jewellery (India), Urban Outfitters necklace (Car boot)

Mary Poppins' carpet bag remains an iconic image to this day but now Fendi has included tapestry pieces in their Spring 2010 collections perhaps the long-forgotten Victorian craft will finally become mainstream. I love a true artisan's work and reckon a bit of tapestry adds a touch of gypsy glamour to my wardrobe.

These Office boots were a charity shop find back in October.
