London Fashion Week : B'Fast With LULU GUINNESS



Something really fun that I did at London Fashion Week is visit Lulu Guinness herself at the swanky Cafe Royal to view her new A/W 2015 Bag Collection. She's actually very much the type of person I imagined she would be - a fun personality, fun fashion style and a sense of humour. Her new bags are as delightful as always with some new fresh patterns and interesting twists.




The new pattern for the season is this wonderful artistic graphic pattern below. It's present on a variation of bags including mini bags and totes



Of course, the famous lips play a part in any collection of hers - I was really taken by the quality of the hard clutch in the first picture and this leather number below.



My personal absolute favourite style is this 'face' pattern below and I particularly love this backpack made of techno fabric. Below it are some lovely classical pieces that can carry you perfectly from morning to night.



This collection will hit stores sometime around September but you can check out her current collection on her website or here or here

London Fashion Week : Orla Kiely A/W 15



I've seen so many catwalk shows and presentation over the last few days - I've tried to instagram at least one pic of each of them but I haven't managed to write about each and every one yet. On Day 2 I went to what is still one of my faves - the Orla Kiely A/W 15 presentation. Orla Kiely in general has always been one of my favourites but her presentations are brilliant and super original. This year she created a whole library, I can only imagine how long the setup took. The wooden tables, old copies of vogue, lampshades - simply awesome.

The collection has a running theme of both 60s and 70s inspiration . The models were all decked out in grey stockings and styled with a mix of clashing colours, prints and patterns that just worked really well. The lemon yellow coat has my name all over it. The accessories and shoes (Clarks collaboration) are also great.

Street Style : London Fashion Week : Burberry A/W 15


So from my Social Media Streams, it may have come to your attention that I received an invite to the Burberry A/W 15 Show. I must admit my first reaction was - 'what on earth am I going to wear' after which the anticipation  at attending such a high profile fashion show started to kicke in.

Sooo what was it like ? Well .... I got there a bit earl ....y so I had to wait for the doors to open and it was coldddd but then once the gates to Kensington Palace Gardens were open and we walked up that stretch and came to well this image below ..it's quite a magical feeling.

There was an immediate frenzy by everyone to get their picture taken under the sign ..and then everyone rushed in to find their place

Inside...........

And the show began......I will post an outfit post tomorrow along with some pics of my favourite pieces in the collection. For today, I'll just say that the show was fantastic, the music was goosebump-inducing outwardly and the clothes....let's just say all I saw were things I want to buy. 

I snapped the FROW that was facing my side..along with Mr Sartorialist himself. 



And the magical finale


And for a some pics of what people were wearing.........

My Styling Work : Forbidden Love - Editorial for Ritienne Zammit

The tale of forbidden love is an old one indeed, for centuries doomed lovers have defied boundaries, defied parents and rules to declare their love for each other. But what happens when in spite of war, in spite of family, in spite of cultural differences and traditions two destined lovers' paths cross ? Forbidden love can exist within a bubble but reality will always come knocking and the bubble always bursts....

Ritienne Zammit's latest collection is an explosion of brocade, religious references, damask and brocade rich patterns and wonderful accessories.
