LFW: Visual diary part 3

So my friend's I'm rounding up fashion week on my blog now. I have about a million other photographs to share but I need to break it up a bit, I love fashion week and even I am a little over writing about it so I'm guessing you might be bored of reading about it. All I will say is that as usual the week was filled with the weird, the wonderful, good friends, beautiful design, high heels and a hell of a lot of air kissing.

LFW: Mattijs AW12

Day two, second show in, wasn't all that impressed with show one of the day so wasn't sure what to expect, enter the Mattijs AW12 show, it whipped me into a frenzy.

Inspired by Star Wars (my god I never thought I'd utter those words) the show was slick and super cool. Sharp pleats mixed with dreamy and fluid lines outlined the collection whilst elegance and wearability were thrown together with blues, greens and metallics. A special mention must go to those ridiculously good, over-sized, multi-frill orange and green coats, WOW.

LFW: Day 2, What we wore

Day two saw rain. I didn't know it was going to rain therefore wore my 'hair' coat. I pondered on whether my coat was going to go as frizzy as my hair does in the rain, luckily it didn't.

Sarah rocked a rather smashing little purple suit (divine) along with the Bea necklace by Dannijo from Wish Want Wear.

LFW: Jean-Pierre Braganza AW12

The Jean-Pierre Braganza show was another highlight of fashion week. I saw the show last season and I have to say although it was a lovely little collection I didn't fall in love. However, this season I can't say the same, it definitely rocked my boat. I loved the futuristic shapes and prints combined with the subtle forties references via high necks, nipped in waists and feminine silhouettes. The intricate, digital prints were pretty darn great too.

 Looking forward to seeing next season already.

LFW: Osman AW12

Day 4, the Osman show. I have to admit I was struggling, four days at fashion week and a crazy Saturday night to boot, I was tired, full of cold and thinking about all the emails that were sitting untouched in my inbox. Anyhow, we muddled through and thank F*@K we did, it blew me away!
The shapes and silhouettes were incredible. Cocoon coats, mullet hems, high waisted leather skirts and jackets, statement collars, cigarette pants and THAT oriental brocade. I can't get enough, I could talk about this one all day long. Insanely good. It's almost as if he crawled into my mind and took my wish list out of my mind before I even knew that the wish list existed, does that make any sense or is my love making me giddy?

Anyhow, my shots didn't turn out so well so instead of subjecting you to wobbly runway shots here are some of my favourite looks, courtesy of style.com...

LFW: Felder Felder AW12

I enjoyed the Felder Felder AW12 show. It was a contemporary and wearable mix of desirable separates that i am already styling into my imaginary wardrobe. Special mentions must go to the statement knitwear in which exaggerated shoulders, fringing and strong silhouettes featured along with bejewelled pants, a digitally printed stretch jumpsuit and a rather special metallic mini skirt. SWEET.

LFW: Day 1, What we wore

Day one saw a maiden voyage for my new, very favourite jeans and my new peach blazer (oh yes I was channelling new season pastels- to be read in  my very best 'fashion voice').

Thanks to Sarah for the lovely pictures.

My old pal and fashion week partner in crime Sarah-Leigh, opted for a rather lovely purple fur collar over an effortlessly cool leather jacket and denim number.
