Better late than never - London Fashion Week Sept -2103



Now I may be slightly bias because I'm British, but in my opinion British Designers are the most innovative and exciting. So although this post is fairly out of date considering LFW ended about 2 weeks ago now, I'm still up for giving my praise to those British Designers that I cant get enough of. I decided just to go with two of my faves otherwise id be here all night.

Probably the most affordable range on the catwalk: Topshop Unique
In my eyes Topshop can do no wrong, the rare occasion they do, we forgive them because we love them so.
I can safely say that half of my wardrobe is from Topshop as it's just perfect for the young girl, student, lady who loves to keep up to  date with fashion without spending through the roof.
Topshop Unique say their ideal client is “Someone with her own unique sense of style, who is not afraid to stand out from the crowd.”
Their S/S 2014 collection targets their client perfectly with the combination of neutral colours and bold prints. Knowing my personal sense of style, the Unique show doesn't scream to me, but then it would be debated whether I am their 'ideal  client'. 
Here's a few pieces that I would pick up off the rail.


I'm a sucker for the Topshop Cami's and the Unique Cami dress is gorgeous and elegant in the navy maxi, fun and fresh in the cream and orange and cute and flirty in the shorter two tone.



This tuxedo style jumpsuit is androgynous yet keeps it feminine with a super sexy low cut back. (unfortunately you cant see the back in this snap) 



Now on to Burberry Prorsum
If I had the space and time I would post almost every picture from this catwalk show, so chic and effortless, with pieces that are just timeless and so perfect for Spring. I love this colours in this collection, I just want it all.

LOVE this colour LOVE LOVE LOVE.
It wouldn't be Burberry without a Trench,
this one is light and easy for those warmer breezy days.

A sheer blouse never goes a miss and paired
with this beautiful crochet midi, why not, its simple
but works so well.

What do you think about my two faves? Think I've missed out some key pieces from the collections or
do you think their are other designers worth giving my opinion on?

First Post?



With New York Fashion Week coming to an end and the start of London Fashion Week around the corner, I thought what better way to start my blog than to talk about what I love about the S/S 14 Collections so far.
I don't know about everyone else but I find it hard to think about next spring when it's just turning to Autumn and all I want to think about is  what winter coat I'm going to by next.
But here it goes anyway, let's start with;
Oscar De La Renta.
I don't think the monochrome look will ever
get old, it's so effortlessly chic. Love the
jacket in particular.
This Lace dress is perfect!

I love how he has combined the print on
this dress. It gives a simple dress that edge, and
the prints work so well together.
The detailing on this one is just to die for.
I used to shy away from colour, as you can
probably tell from my previous picks, but I love
the vibrancy of the orange with the embellished
neckline.













































This is by far my favourite collection so far, I'm just so anxious for London Fashion Week which in my opinion has a lot more to offer.
What do you think?
