This look is quite far from my generic style, but I LOVE IT! The fresh zing of metallic combined with the off-white creates an unflawed cool vibe. The H&M off-white turn-up culottes are a traditional foundation for a typical ‘Maddison’ outfit, however this time I played it out of the box… Throwing on a H&M [...]

Villanelle has the crown for the queen of spring/summer fashion. Her audacious, arrogant style is ironic due to her job title…yet that fact makes it more attractive.
