LFW Looks: Triple Denim

I’m not a fan of the double denim trend at all, but this outfit at London Fashion Week caught my attention and made me think: if you can pull it off then who am I to say otherwise? It’s actually a TRIPLE denim ensemble and I think its was wise to team this the neutral black hat and brown belt. The fab 90’s lip colour … Continue reading LFW Looks: Triple Denim

FASHION: The Flat Is Back

There was something missing amongst the fashionable crowds at fashion week this year. And that missing thing was complaining – about sore feet. Was it Isabel Marant’s sneakers? Or perhaps the return to atrociously ugly 90s flatforms? Who knows who started the revolution, but it’s official, the flat is back! These pointed slingbacks are a bargain from New Look, available in various colour ways and … Continue reading FASHION: The Flat Is Back

This theatrically-staged exhibition is unlike any other I have been to, bringing personality to each and every garment on display by using revolutionary projections alongside mannequins, bringing them to life.

Next up was a quick visit to the Shopcade Party bus where I was treated to a cheeky mojito and some good tunes. Then on to John Rocha, one … Continue reading FASHION: LFW Diary Day 2

FASHION: LFW AW14/15 Diary Day One

Dear Diary…It’s that time again… Catwalk season! London Fashion Week got off to a wet and windy start yesterday leaving fashionistas drenched and windswept at Somerset House. I was there with a warm scarf and an umbrella, but there were other girls bare legged and jacket less proving their true dedication to style. This is my 5th LFW! (Getting old) and I was feeling a … Continue reading FASHION: LFW AW14/15 Diary Day One
