ON THE STREET
Blenheim Glassons manager Amelia Riches believes that an outfit can be transformed from casual to chic with a few wellchosen accessories. Describe what you are wearing today. Today what I’m wearing is neutral, street chic and comfortable. Everything is from Glassons except for my shoes which are from ASOS and I’ve added some big gold earrings and a necklace to bring it all together.
Do you have a usual style? Not really, I mostly just wear what I feel like on the day. Today was cold and I had a lot on, so I went with something that’s comfortable and easy to move around in. Other times my style is quite businessy. I get a lot of my inspiration from Pinterest as well as the other Glassons’ girls from around the region.
What items do you have the most of in your wardrobe? I have lots of bags and jewellery, basically loads of accessories. I feel like a casual outfit can be really elevated with jewellery and bags. For example, today I feel like my outfit wouldn’t look complete without my big earrings and jewellery.
What looks or trends do you like at the moment? I like going really neutral or choosing just one colour and coordinating my outfit around that. At Glassons recently we have been doing this, each of us picking a different colour such as pastel green or pink. We all take inspiration from each other. It gives me that extra bit of energy when I feel dressed up and it’s fun too. Sometimes I’ll throw a blazer or pleather jacket over the top to finish the look.
Where do you buy most of your clothes? Definitely Glassons, I don’t really buy my clothes from anywhere else! Sometimes I will go to Hallensteins for the odd oversized, graphic crew jumper. They’re really great to wear with a cute, pleated skirt.
What wardrobe staple should everyone invest in? I think everyone should invest in an oversized college shirt, even if it’s just plain white it looks very sophisticated. You can just throw it over jeans or biker shorts and that looks very chic too.
Finish this sentence. You would never catch me wearing.... Pyjamas in public. Even when I go to the mailbox outside my house I never would!
