Life In Mono

Sarah cites Swedish fashion blogger and fashion journalist, Elin Kling, as her main style influencer. “She’s got amazing style instincts, “explains Sarah. “I love her signature look – an oversized shirt paired with skinnies and a stiletto heel – simple, chic, low-key and sexy.” Her inspirations are evident in her own effortless get-up: a softly structured peplum top with skinny pants and peep-toe heels, all in a stark black and white palette. It’s not all cool and minimal for Sarah though – we spotted a Rilakkuma phone case which revealed her soft spot for the Japanese vein of cute. Another Japanese favourite – author Haruki Murakami. The banker has been captivated by Murakami’s acclaimed work ever since her father introduced “Norwegian Wood” to her years back. “I’ve read almost all his books! I’ve already pre-ordered the English translation of his latest book, ‘Colourless Tsukuru Tazaki and his Years of Pilgrimage’, expected to be released in August 2014.” That’s one devoted fan.
