Boohoo hosted their AW14 press day at One Marylebone last week with a bang, and a party bus. There was so many fun activities it was almost distracting from the clothes; fishing for rubber ducks, a live Instagram wall, a video message feature, hashtags on coffee cups…All very entertaining! Clothes wise Boohoo provided it’s audience with what it wants, trend led collections grouped into different … Continue reading FASHION: Boohoo AW14 Press Day
The AW14 stories from ASOS have an overwhelming feeling of fun, exactly what we need to brighten up a dreary winter. Pop-art and cartoon style prints make an appearance, as do some glittertastic options. Pink is still a major player in both daywear and the Xmas party options. What a pity we have eight months to wait, I’ve got my eye on that pink sequinned … Continue reading FASHION: ASOS AW14 Press Preview – Womenswear
I predict that men will be looking very sharp come Christmas. And I can say that with utter confidence because I’ve seen ASOS’s men’s AW14/15 collection… In April. Continuing with the current Americana craze (Five Guys Anyone?) there’s plenty of baseball inspired bomber jackets and sports luxe touches to the collections. Despite this American love there’s still a decent amount of British fan fair, with … Continue reading FASHION: ASOS AW14 Press Day – Menswear
I felt inspired at LFW to get out of my make up rut. I’ve been sporting a red lip, black flick combo for too long. A top catwalk trend from the past few seasons has been pink, so I’ve gone for a smokey pink eye and rosy cheeks. For the base I’ve used a base of Clinique Anti Blemish Foundation (£24), with Rimmel Wake Me Up … Continue reading BEAUTY: Thinking Pink For LFW
Dear diary… On day five of LFW AW14 I joined a cult. The cult of K-T-Z. Things had begun to wind down, and those of us who’d been wearing heels for 5 days straight were feeling a little fatigued. But it was a refreshing wake up call to see the ever interesting K-T-Z show. The crowd at the show were predominantly hardcore fans. The thing … Continue reading FASHION: LFW Diary Day 5
Dear dairy… Day four at London Fashion Week, or “Mega Monday” as the media have dubbed it, was a mixed bag of events. With the giant Burberry show catching everyone’s attention I couldn’t help feel a little sorry for the other, completely overshadowed, designers. I headed back to Somerset House for the David Korma show which was very much to my tastes. The designer’s signature … Continue reading FASHION: LFW Diary Day 4
Dear diary… On day three of LFW I headed over to the Fashion Scout venue to seek out some fresh talent. Sunday was all about Felicities designers. An Icy start with the Basharatyan Show inspired by Iceland. The models lips had tuned blue and sprouted small icicles! The hair and make up styling on this show was one of the most elaborate this season but … Continue reading FASHION: LFW Diary Day 3
Dear diary, on day two of LFW I visited the lovely ladies in the M.A.C press lounge at Somerset House. I was given a 30 minute transformation including a bronze eye and a gothic “rebel” lip. 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
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
