I'm a big APC fan and I thought I'd review my buys for this season; they might be of interest to some of you!
1. Navy sweater dress
(from
www.net-a-porter.com)
This is absolutely perfect for me. It's cozy and chic and looks good with jeans or tights. The first day I wore it I had that rare feeling of knowing it would be a favourite for years. I got it in XS and it fits perfectly (I am a UK 8-10).
2. Shawl cardigan
(from
www.apc.fr)
I got this in S rather than my usual XS - I find APC cardigans fit small - and it fits fine. It's not the most versatile cardigan imaginable - it works with round neck tops but looks weird with most of my collared blouses - but I kept it as a useful extra layer over dresses and jersey tops in winter.
What do you all think of the new look APC website? The moving models are a good idea in theory, but I find myself missing the lookbook style of the old site - it was easier to take in the clothes that way, I think. I'm not keen on the pictures of models wearing the clothes either - I don't like the way their heads aren't shown and the light is very harsh and doesn't show the clothes at their best. I'd be interested to hear what other APC fans think.
