LFW Day 3: The Looks...

So the LFW coverage is coming to an end. I only attended on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday due to being booked for the remainder of the week (sadly the real world must go on). So here is the first installment of day three.

I opted for black (partly as I thought it was a good idea to go out the night before after a few cocktails at the Olivia Rubin show and therefore couldn't face the outfit selection process through my gin haze that morning) as it turns out I think this is my favourite look from the weekend- sometimes gin helps huh?

However, I did opt for a colour burst by adding this rather fabulous (and new favourite), red jumper. It's been in my wardrobe for at least two years but this was it's first outing- not sure why this is.

The lovely Dvora of Fashionistable captured my mean an moody side (or perhaps it's just my fatigue?).

Where's it from?

Jumper: Warehouse, Coat and tail: Vintage, Bag and lipstick: Chanel, Boots: Aldo, Bangle: Vintage (a gift from my father to my mother to me!)

My lovely friend and fashion week partner in crime, Sarah-Leigh went for an eclectic mix of leopard and leather topped with a quintessentially English bowler- well it is LFW after all.

The lovely Sophie of The Chic Parade joined us for the day and channelled vintage fur, fringing and uber heels.

LFW: Day 2: Georgia Hardinge

Last season Georgia Hardinge was part of Vauxhall Fashion Scout's 'Ones To Watch' show. This season was her first stand-alone show, and boy am I glad I got to see it.

A really strong collection with an anatomical thread being sewn throughout. Beautiful structure and intricate craftsmanship put a stamp on the collection whilst all the while being feminine and wearable.










I was lucky enough to get backstage to meet the lady herself and she was genuinly lovely.



Georgia, I applaud you and look forward to next season.

Rainy Sunday On Brick Lane...

Oh what a delightful day I've had. I will interrupt my incessant LFW coverage to share a few snaps.




Love this...

LFW: Day 2: The Beautiful People...









LFW: Day 2: Angel Jackson

During day two of LFW, I popped to see one my absolute favourite bag designers - Angel Jackson's latest offerings...and the collection did not disappoint.

A beautiful mix of leather and metal embellishment featured throughout the new collection and a huge amount of attention to detail has been paid with the satchels (my personal favourite and definitely on the LFW wish list) having embellished panels on the shoulder straps.

Distressed leather, metal coins and beading and sleek clutches were also seen.

Bravo AJ, bravo.













LFW: Day 2: Bryce Aime...

After snapping backstage it was time to see the show. I'm 50/50 on this one. I enjoyed some of the collection, including the black and beige panelled leggings - I would add these to my fashion week wish list, along with the digital prints and some of the geometric panelling. I also in a bizarre way quite enjoyed the Gaga-esque, geometric robots - perhaps the delirium and exhaustion of fashion week had set in at this point though?

What do you think dear readers?
