Outfit : Once Upon A Dress

If you're a regular reader, you must know I love wearing yellow - I've only mentioned it like a zillion times. I wore this lovely outfit to the LIST ROMA and Luisa Spagnoli fashion show last week - it's one of my favourite recent outfits. I love it because one it's yellow, two because it's such a beautiful dress and three, because I felt the jacket gave the dress a bit of a different look, made it look a bit different to the way others would wear it perhaps. Both the jacket and dress are from LIST ROMA so I was perfectly in theme for the occasion.

I also asked for my hair to be styled a bit differently that night too, I felt that a bit of volume would lend itself better to the outfit, the fact that it was also a very windy night helped to ensure the volume stayed put.

It really was a very cold night so the jacket didn't stay off for very long

STREET STYLE IN MALTA Vol 2 - Fashion Week Edition

By: Unknown 04:10 No comments

Although Malta’s fashion week might not be the huge worldwide phenomena and street style stage such as the ones in London or Milan, our local fashionistas certainly know a thing or two about attending in style. The great thing about fashion weeks, in general, is that they seem to unleash a certain measure of style creativity and extract more willingness to step away from the little black dress and experiment a little bit.

I was especially pleased to see a lot of bright colours around and even some pattern mixing. Some key trends and looks which I spotted were: shorts and blazers / jackets for the guys - Malta’s climate doesn’t provide a great platform for this look so I get quite excited when I see it.

Statement jewellery - although delicate jewellery has made a recent return to the fashion world, statement jewellery is still going strong especially when it comes to necklaces. Monochrome is extremely popular again this season, my preference for summer is when a little bit of colour is injected. I also noticed a lot of T-Bar sandals cladding many feet as well as a some sneakers and interesting brogues (both male and female). Some statement and quirky bags also played guests at various events.

Outfit Post : Milan Fashion Week Day 2

By: Unknown 23:14 No comments

On the second day of Milan Fashion Week, it was warm enough to not wear a coat and after 6 days of being bundled up I was quite happy to be without one. I decided to try a style (midi skirt + sweater + sneakers...I also really needed to rest my feet from any sort of heel) that I've never actually worn before, it was actually quite London catwalk inspired as I saw so many similar looks walking down the catwalk albeit a bit more fanciful or twisted. I also added slightly darker eye makeup.

You might realise / you might not, but my sweater is actually worn back-to-front, I decided I like it more like that ! I decided to do a spot of shopping on that day - you can't go to Milan and not shop and I was also gifted a lovely gift from La Perla ::D

Alsoooo if you look at my right hand I'm wearing a new watch - An ANDY BABY swatch, whilst in London I posted this photo to my instagram as part of their daily competition and I won, apparently it was all due to the pom poms.

I started off the day with breakfast at the fabulous Sketch and a braid at the popup THE BRAID BAR store that was setup at Sketch for London Fashion Week. The concept is really interesting, they have a braid menu and addons you can do like these pom poms and rings.

After breakfast it was back to the shows

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

By: Unknown 14:41 No comments

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...........

Model Elena Permitova

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.
