Iris Apfel thinks turquoise goes with everything

… and she is 100% correct.

You’ve probably realised by now that I’m a massive fan of massive jewellery with an ethnic feel to it, so will not need any explanation about how much I LOVE all this.



I had heard of Iris Apfel before, but when I found Rare bird of fashion: The Irreverent Iris Apfel
(by Eric Boman, published by Thames and Hudson) in my local library, I think I died a little bit and went to heaven.


Is it wrong to have WEAR MORE TURQUOISE as a life goal? Because I think I want to add it to my list. How could I not, when I see perfection such as this?
Although I think Iris Apfel’s chiropractor is probably making a tidy packet. Turquoise is heavy!

(The perfect pink jacket is Lanvin, in case you were wondering. I LOVE the shoulder detail, don’t you?).
