This was the case with Camille. Now I could see on Instagram that she was in NYC but I just wasn't seeing her. We eventually met up on my last day there. She had been ill poor thing and this was her first venture out. The stresses of huge personal upheaval had taken their toll and sometimes even if it is fashion week you just have to stop. It was great to see her looking so good. I called this post sun stripes because the reflection in her glasses almost looks like the Japanese flag. Camille is a social media/fashion journalist at <a href="http://www.matchesfashion.com/" target="_blank">Matches</a> and <a href="http://www.camilleovertherainbow.com/" target="_blank">blogger</a>. She is wearing a Sportmax jacket, Acne t-shirt, Joseph trousers, with Celine shoes and bag.

She comes from NYC and believes the fashion sensibility in London is absolutely GREAT — fresh, inspired, eclectic, DIY — and prefers it to NYC where she says even the street style seems less imaginative. Teresa wears heels at work “so people think I’m tall and powerful” and these are <a href="http://www.katespade.com/home/index.jsp">Kate Spade</a> sling-backs that you can dress-up or down. “My color palette starts with my hair which went gray when I was 18 and seems to be the only thing people ever notice about me. My color palette is dictated by the hair. Poison green, black, white, gray, and anything blue work well -- but taupe and brown and beige simply drain the LIFE out of me.” Today Teresa is wearing a simple black tee and sweater from <a href="http://www.joseph.co.uk/">Joseph</a> with <a href="http://www.bananarepublic.com/">Banana Republic</a> shorts. Although you cannot see them, she told me she is addicted to <a href="http://www.bodas.co.uk/">Bodas</a> string bikinis and bras — and likes them best when they’re "matchy-matchy".
