We love what Katie Wears! (and what Joe writes)

If you've not heard of the super blog 'what katie wore' you must have been on another planet as their fabulous fashion blog has been everywhere from the pages of Grazia to my-wardrobe.com - and around the world too with fans everywhere from Germany to America.

In case you haven't seen it go check it out immediately (well after you've read this blog of course!) and go back everyday - its a veritable feast for the eyes tracking what Katie (the blog's star) wears every day for a year. The words are provided by her lovely boyfriend Joe who decided, upon Katie telling him he was about as romantic as valentines day at McDonalds, to write her the 'ultimate love letter' by taking photos of her once a day for a year in her amazing outfits and describing them. There were rules of course, she couldnt wear the same thing twice in a month and it had to be different every day - thats 365 days of Katie's glorious outfits. It's become more than just a cult - its an obsession with myself included making time to check it out every day.

I met Katie at University and even back then she was super stylish, mixing vintage with high street, wearing a skirt as a top and with a tights/accessories/shoe collection to die for! Plus that girl knows more ways to use a safety pin than anyone else I know.

We here at sip think Katie is inspiring - no longer can I wake up and throw on my skinnies and tee, I actually think about what im wearing, how can I add accessories to make it more exciting? Can I wear that boob tube as a skirt, how about I cut the feet out of these tights... and because we love Katie and Joe so much we think they deserve our 'sip chick (and in this instance 'guy' too) of the month.

Here are some of our favorite outfits from the past 7 months!

we love the big bow shoulder detail!

the most exquisit colour on Katie - and she pinned it herself

we love the tights - she made them into leggings and is rocking them with a gorgeous floaty skirt!

mismatch heaven! love all the accessories - esp those gloves and brilliant bag!

my favourite outfit so far - gorgeous, unique, classy, stylish - and Katie looks incredible!



Well done guys! Keep it up... the world is watching! x
