Recently got introduced to NZ label Kowtow and I’m absolutely obsessed with their clothing. This top (and everything they make) is made from the most beautiful fairtrade and organic cotton that is both ethical and sustainable - what a lovely brand philosophy!

Say hello to their Colours of Light top - the slightly stiff cotton voile gives it a bit of structure but it’s still perfectly breezy. It’s equally stunning in blue, too. I balanced out the looseness with a bodycon skirt, my favourite architectural shoes from UN and a clutch I made last year.

    I love the shape of the top on you. I think it would have been really hard to choose between the white and the chalk blue - both lovely. You are going to get the blue too aren’t you?

    Sweet shoes & I also love clothing that has that raw, organic feel to it. It almost feels as if you’ve accomplished something, just by wearing it.

    I’m actually loving the skirt more. A jersey pencil skirt sounds so comfy and amazing right now.

    You should definitely start wearing more pencil skirts, because they look amazing on you. In general, this minimalistic style and color palette suits you perfectly in my opinion. Fantastic top, too! :)

    The top is absolutely beautiful, love the combination of the structure with the lightness of the fabric, it looks amazing worn with the bodycon skirt too, such great proportions! Still loving that clutch too :)

    I have a weak spot in my heart for organic cotton, particularly white cotton shirts and blouses. This look very elegant indeed!

    Oh that linen top looks like summer perfection. Might look to see if they have a button front one
