I just love everything they're about, their fearlessness of textures/colours/prints, their stories behind their collections (one heart felt collection celebrating the life of a friend of theirs who passed away from cancer- beautiful colours used throughout), and how flattering the designs are for the female figure, just have a squiz at the lovely Kimmy K in these pieces:
Another thing i admire about old S n' B is the ladies behind the label, Heidi and Kate are two loving mums and wives aswell as amazing designers.
They have successfully made a business from what they love, kept a close friendship, have families, still dress the way they wanna dress and don't listen to 'dress your age' notions, and keep amazing tans!
So the next item I have my eyes quite literally on, are their eyewear collection:
Oh which one to pick?
Now that i work in the city, i feel it is my duty to visit regularly the Sass and Bide store, just to be in the relm of awesome style, my 'church'.
So i leave this with giving myself 10 commandments to abide by:
- Thou shalt dress however ye desires without being restricted by other opinions.
- Thou shalt spend a weeks' pay on an investment piece per collection.
- Thou shalt use childhood toys to make awesome helmuts.
- Thou shalt acquire a sequin covered party dress.
- Thou shalt do what ye love as a career, preferably with a buddy.
- Thou shalt still believe in having little quotes to go with how thy style is at the time.
- Thou shalt have fun with fashion
- Thou shalt remember ye can have a family aswell as a career
- Thou shalt love thy accessories
- Thou shalt accompany thy outfit with a rocking hair style
