The Style Council

[smokingboot]

This is a pathetically girly call for help! I have a breakfast meeting with meeeja peeps in Claridges in the Autumm. I want to impress, but - wait for it -I have not got a single clue what to wear. It's not helped by Claridges 'smart dress' code for their restaurants. See, I'm going in as a creative so I don't have to look corporate or businessy, but I guess I should look like Sparkling-Bright-Eyed-CharmingBoot as opposed to I've-Got-Cornflakes-In-My-NostrilsBoot. I am already daunted by the whole matching shoes and handbag thing, not to mention my inability to eat even a croissant without covering myself in it. I have a vision of my American colleague mesmerised by pastry shards in the gaps of my teeth while jam trickles down my front. Eggs are definitely out.

Anyone got any ideas? Any brand names? Any web pages?
