FASHION // THE BLACK SWIMSUIT

FASHION // THE INVESTMENT BAG

As we get older, we begin to appreciate the finer things in life. Not in a spoilt brat way, more in an investment piece way. In the years BC (before children) we used to waste our hard earned wages on weekly shops at ASOS and monthly visits to Primark to buy multiples...
