A recap of 2010...

So 2010 has almost drawn to a close ( I can't quite believe that another year has gone by and I am getting older and older) and whilst fretting about my outfit for tomorrow night (still not sure what I shall wear yet), panicking about party plans (still not confirmed everything yet) and hap-hazardly thinking about resolutions (still working on those) I have taken time out from all of the above to have a little reminisce of 2010.

Here goes...
JANUARY
January saw the country grind to a halt when we received a large amount of unexpected snow...

I also discovered the work of artist Alex Cave and managed to pin him down for an interview...

FEBRUARY
February brought fashion week once again and I hit the Elle Style Awards...

We also lost the truly wonderful Alexander McQueen...

MARCH

I was lucky enough to be photographed for Company magazine and penned a few words on the blogging world...

APRIL

April saw trendies going mental and rioting at the American Apparel sample sale...

MAY

I went elephant hunting in May...

JUNE
June saw my annual pilgrimage to Glastonbury. Read some highlights here, here and here...

JULY

The iTunes festival hit The Roundhouse, Camden for the entirety of July. I was lucky enough to get tickets to see The XX, Faithless and Underworld (thanks James)...

AUGUST
August saw two wonderful friends tie the knot, congratulations to Nick and Becca (check out Becca's immense heels)...


It also saw me make a huge life change, after three years of working in PR and marketing at a highstreet giant I took the plunge and went freelance. This was a huge decision and a very difficult one, although so far so good and I have not looked back.
SEPTEMBER
I was shortlisted for the Next Generation, street style blogger competition on Vogue.com...


And of course, I attended fashion week. Read my coverage here, here, and here...

OCTOBER
October was a month for events, a memorable was the Matthew Williamson book launch at Somerset House...

NOVEMBER
The end of the year saw me cementing new loves, November is when my love affair with Mary Katrantzou began...

DECEMBER

As you would expect December has brought the usual festivities, Christmas shopping, sale shopping, gin & tonic, Christmas get togethers and food. It will also see a carefully thought out NYE outfit (post to come in 2011- if I ever figure out what to wear).
I will take this moment to wish you all a Happy new Year readers, thank you for reading, commenting, returning and tweeting.
See you next year!

Hannah Marshall @ London Fashion Week...

Due to having a quiet work week I am doing a bit of computer admin this week and when sorting through the thousands of images I took during fashion week I realised that I had not posted this shot of the gorgeous and uber talented Hannah Marshall, so here it is...

It's love: Mary Katrantzou SS11

So fashion week has been and gone. Now I am well and truly back to normal life again my mind casts back to that wonderful time, where our fair city was full of the elite from the fashion and style worlds and where I started drawing up my wish list for SS11.

One show that I can't seem to shift from my mind is Mary Katrantzou's. Her extreme mix of structure, graphic prints and femininity were enthralling and as for THOSE lampshade skirts...well I can honestly say I have totally fallen for them. Chic, futuristic and just brilliant, my favourite has to be the blue and yellow fringe trimmed skirt, love the entire head-to-toe look.

All hail The Nyanzi Report!

The lovely David of The Nyanzi Report has featured some lovely shots of myself and Kit of Style Slicker on his blog. I must say I am delighted- this is one guy that takes some seriously beautiful shots and he has managed to get a snapshot of that awesome capelet, (just to inform you it was taken on the same day as the previous post about the cape, I have not broken the golden rule of re-wearing something during fashion week!).

All images are taken by David and I seriously recommend you check out his blog.

Coco Spotted...

I have just come across this shot of myself at fashion week on FiveFiveFabulous.com, (gosh that seems so long ago now), I forgot how much I love this faux-fur caplet so thought I'd share it with you, I'm off to go and dig this out of my wardrobe!
