Animal

In London yesterday, whilst on an art trip, we visited the V&A and had a wander around Kensington where we came across the most beautiful streets filled with amazing apartments, hotels etc (dreaming of living in one in the future -- not gonna happen..) But the area was lovely and also visiting the Science Musuem was kind of fun - not related to art but children's activities are always well and good.

B + W

Monochrome look for my best friend's birthday with a mix of old and new to my outfit. Even though the horizontal stipe is usually frowned upon as it makes you look a little larger than normal.. lets say, they seem to be making a comeback into the SS season already! 

I was wearing Topshop top, Zara skirt, Faith shoes, Mum's blazer, Zara clutch

Summer's back?

After the first couple of weeks of September being very chilly, I was happy to buy a new coat and start wearing my Winter knits again. However on my birthday, whilst wondering what to wear for lunch, the weather seemed to change - the sun was out, and has been a few times since. I wish the cold would come back, as Autumn/Winter is my favourite time of year, especially so you can cosy up in knits and scarfs and layers and coats etc.

I was wearing Zara shirt, Topshop tuxedo suit trousers, Aldo shoes.

Minimal

The minimalistic look (as always) I was wearing to London Fashion Weekend. Mango trousers, Zara coat, Tiffany + Co 'k' necklace, clutch was my Nans

Birthday

A range of pictures from my birthday weekend, last weekend. Including soooo much food - chocolate cake, cupcakes, profiteroles, afternoon tea, macarons, chocolate shoes, hersheys bars... And of course the fantastic day I had in London at the Fashion Weekend, as well as indulging into all of my new books I got; listening to vinyl on my new turntable and my new found love for GTA, how lady-like.

Canon 360

Canon 360 shoot I took part in at London Fashion Weekend, turned out pretty cool actually. And apparently reminded my family of the matrix!

London Fashion Weekend

This Saturday I went to London for London Fashion Weekend - the smaller version of LFW, lets say, (and more affordable too!) It was a really good experience and the venue at Somerset House was fantastic, each room inside the building held a different designer's pop-up shop, such as: Kat Maconie shoes, Levi's jeans, Vintage Fur Company and Lola Rose jewellery - a few of them shown above. Around the pop-up shops were hand picked items by Susie Bubble (blogger) such as the colourful silk scarf shown in the picture, where you can see in the background the handwritten note from Susie herself. There was also a book shop, where I wanted to buy everything... of course (but it was my birthday the next day so I was spoilt with fashion books - post to come)
Outside there was the show space which held the catwalk and other things to take part in, including Henry Holland's House of Holland ice cream van, it was bright and funky with a clothes rack outside showing off some of his latest iconic designs. The catwalk itself was called 'Trend' showing 4 different trends including 'Pretty in Pink', 'Back to Nature', 'Shape Up' and 'Victorianna'. Pretty in Pink and Victorianna were my favourite overall as I love the pale pink shades that are in right now, especially a fluffy jumper or long coat - which seem to be every at the moment! And black seems to be my most worn colour for the past couple of years, so a high neck, long sleeve dress or jumper in black seemed just perfect to me. All styled by Pandora Lennard, hair by Toni & Guy and make up by Maybelline (who both had stalls at the event). Sorry for the bad quality of the catwalk photos - still trying to get to grips with my camera and the quick snap didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped.

A/W Wants

A mix of minimalism and pastel pinks for A/W 

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

A few more pics of the seaside while we were in Brighton over the summer.
