London Fashion Week Part 1

I've finished Fashion Week! Interning with a PR company was quite an experience. I delivered invites to half of East London and run across Leicester Square with £3000 of clothes in a bag. For Fashion Week I was then working at ME Hotel and assisting in some shows our company represent. I thought I would make a 3 part post including my own snaps and my top 6 designers the showed. Hope everyone else had an amazing LFW xxxxx

David Koma

I love the structured style he used, and who futuristic those bondage style panels look. The mesh pieces are my favourite and the monochrome palette adds to the simplicity.

Jasper Conran

I wonder if he watched his 'sex and the city' boxset when looking for inspiration? I though this catwalk walked right off the 90s and I love it. The simple spaghetti strap dresses and plain pump shoes with these long loose coats are so Carrie, and the colour palette (that orange!) is simply perfect. I can't explain how much I love this collection, I would wear ever single piece.

Mary Katrantzou 

No digi prints? No bright colours? I couldn't believe it when i saw Mary's collection, it seems she's moved onto embellishments. Her inspiration was looking at various uniforms such as the Boy Scouts which is where the medallions and badge embellishments are from. I  think the collection is beautiful, especially some of the little dresses, and think it will be worn a lot of red carpet events.

stilettos in the street

coat//mango trousers//new look heels//topshop jumper//primark lipstick 104 passion//chanel

This is my crazy oversized mango coat I picked up in the sales for a mere £20. It's such a warm coat and I can throw it over any outfit for a little grunge effect. These nude stilettos are truley my best steal ever down from £58 to £9 in the Topshop sale!! Such a classic style that I love so much I want to wear them even when I go supermarket shopping. I hardly took this jumper off over christmas, the pastel blue makes it a perfect transitional piece for winter/spring.

pvc pink

cropped jumper//topshop pvc skirt//missguided watch//river island converse//office 

I finally got my hands on this little pink pvc number from missguided and it was well worth the wait. The skirt is a really flattering fit and shape, although a bit big round my waist. I thought styling it down with converse in the day would make it a bit more versatile and ensure maximum wear-ability. I had also ordered the midi-length version but the fit just was not right on my frame, so not kimmy k style points for me today!

So me and the rest of my university apparently picked this Topshop coat up in sale! Seriously saw 3 other people wearing it today! I love the colour and shape of this coat. It was reduced from £58 to £25 (plus student discount) in the sale so I ordered on boxing day. I love how it toned with the lilac top and I this necklace I stole from Amber. Why is everyday a bad hair day for me right now?

jumper//topshop skirt//river island boots//H&M 

I love this crackled silver skirt I picked up in the River Island sale last week. I wasn't sure how to dress it down, but I think a cropped top always works best with high waisted stuff. I can't wait to wear it on a night out with my leopard print heels.

uni days

jumper//new look bag//ebay jeans//zara watch//michael kors boots//topshop

A rainy day outfit for some rather dull lectures about pricing architecture. It was okay though as it was the Fashion Management and Marketing christmas drinks afterward so we got free champagne and me and the girls are no idiots when it comes to free alcohol...

Styling and photos by Amber Haly

Living in a uni house full of fashion students is a lot of fun, especially when you get to play around with clothes and pictures. For Amber's styling project, she had to do a Pop Art inspired shoot and she wanted me to do the test shoots with her. The styling is so unlike me (don't even ask about the giant eyebrows and black-lined lips!) but I think the pictures have come out so well considering they were done in our lounge and on a sheet in the garden! I think this red lip phone is so funky too, defo going to try and keep that in my room...
