This past Friday I attended a talk at the Victoria & Albert Museum, featuring fashion designer Peter Jensen and Julie Verhoeven, the artist and illustrator. I had been captivated by Peter's Spring 2014 Ready To Wear Collection from when I first saw it late last year but wasn't sure it fit with The Work Look but I certainly could not pass on an opportunity like this.

Peter Jensen's collections are based on female 'muses' with Spring 2014 inspired by Diana Ross. His collections are filled with whimsy and beauty, inspired by real women who live life by their own rules, for better or worse. That is the kind of woman I want to surround myself with, in this case, through Peter Jensen's eyes.
