263. Tennis style

SPORTING A MINIMALIST LOOK

A congratulations is in order to Andy Murray for winning Wimbledon! The first British person to win in 77 years, what a bloody achievement eh?! To carry on the spirit of the sport I've collated my edit of stylish sportswear. Keep the look simple and fuss free, little details finish off the outfit but don't clutter the look. Either opt for the gold chain or the ring, both are statement pieces, and with the clean shapes and colour palette you want to finish off this minimal look with a slick touch.

Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry

Fred Perry had been collaberating with Amy Winehouse for a line of clothing, featuring polos, skirts and belts. He stopped the production after her sudden death but was asked to continue it by Amy's family. Since 2010 Amy had been working closely with the Fred Perry design team throughout the design process to create a limited edition clothing line she was passionate about and is true to her style.  The collection is great for those stylish retro fashionistas.

Proceeds will go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation set up by her father. 
The A/W collection is now avaliable on the website. 

With a strong influence from the 1950's, you can clearly establish Amy's input. A use of houndstooth and peterpan collars, there is a playful yet classy approach to the collection. I love the retro feel, simple cuts and the clean colour palette throughout. 

Here are my favourite pieces:

Houndstooth boat neck dress
£150

 50's Micro Houndstooth shirt dress
£110

 Micro Houndstooth bowling shirt
£70

Houndstooth leather gloves
£60
