Today, DJ and Fade Street star, Cici Cavanagh takes us through what she’s wearing
How much did it cost?
Approximately €280.
What do you love most about it?
It’s understated in colour, yet the collaboration of pieces is quite unique looking. I tend to only wear black or muted tones, so I like to have fun with shapes and textures instead.
Who is your fashion icon?
I don’t have an exact fashion icon as such. I do like Alice Dellal’s style, although I’m not sure I could pull it off myself.
Which designers do you admire?
Preen are one of my all time favourite designers. They are original yet quirky with a direct injection of rock ‘n’ roll. I have about six of their pieces and was totally star struck when I met them at their New York Fashion Week collection launch party in 2009.
What is the last thing you bought?
I was in London for the Frieze Art Fair recently and did some damage in the Topshop on Oxford Street; I had to be dragged out of the shop.
What was your biggest splurge?
A pair of black suede Christian Louboutin ankle boots with gold zips or my 40inch Louis Vuitton Speedy, both which I view as classic investment pieces.
What is your best bargain buy?
A pair of amazing lace up chunky heeled platform boots by Topshop Boutique reduced from €230 to €75. There was only one pair as they were an online return. Serious jackpot.
Where do you like to shop?
For basics like leggings, bodies and cotton pieces I like American Apparel; Penneys for bits and bobs; and All Saints and Topshop on pay days.
What has been your biggest fashion faux pas?
Every single day from the year 2003 up to 2006.
