You know, I’m pretty sure Mary Portas is God. No mere mortal can manage the feat of looking full-on fierce, aiding helpless retailers to salvage their staid stores, while also managing to be impossibly charming, refreshingly irreverent, and acerbically witty. Oh, and she has a killer bob.
So, it was in the hopes of possibly catching a glimpse of the woman (or is she more deity?) herself that I went along to Yellowdoor‘s (Portas’ London-based PR agency) Autumn Winter 10 press day. As my better judgement had foretold, she was nowhere to be seen. Still, I did manage to drown my disappointment in free champagne cocktails and feasting the eyes upon new season desirables. Case in point – Fullcircle‘s MOT reversible shirts in blue and red.

Granted plaid shirts are a fairly knackered option for another season, but the addition of reversibility and a leather-style (it’s polyurethane, and for the price-tag they could’ve gone the whole hog) collar and cuffs just adds enough interest to prevent this future staple being a decent but terminally boring shirt. Oh, and it’s reversible, so, like a mullet, it’s all business in the front (chambray) and party in the back (plaid). But nowhere near as fugly, obv.
Ahh devoed – you didn't get to meet THE queen of shops and her oversized goodies (accessories) As for the shirts – I love me a bargain – 2 in 1 – Genius. Yours TrulyWE SPY WITH MY LITTLE i
