Rain, rain, go away

Tuesday evening.  The sky is tumbling down with pregnant raindrops; the sky an eerie yellow.  Wondering where my bank holiday disappeared to?

The Princess

If Elvis is The King, then Riley Keough, his 20 year old granddaughter, is surely The Princess. Show-stoppingly beautiful, with "her grandmother Priscilla's bone structure, her grandfather's jawline and her mother Lisa Marie's almond shaped eyes," - as well as kohl-lined eyes and the tattoos on her hand and wrist that speak of the rock'n'roll running through her veins. But on top of all of this, Riley's got the most intrinsic sense of style, as profiled in the latest issue of British Vogue. Vintage dresses, tailored jackets and quirky, unique and easy-to-wear pieces, she cites Alexander Wang, 3.1 Philip Lim, Chloe, Lanvin and Alaia as her favourite designers, with Doc Martins being her footwear du jour. Oh, to have such a wardrobe!!
