Now anybody who knows me good volition attest that I'm pretty piteous when it comes to fashion choices. I purchase items because I honey them, but when it comes to putting them together, it all literally falls apart.
Such was my fashion failings that during my early on twenties, a friend offered to purchase me a coloring fabric matching tutorial amongst a stylist inward a bid to ameliorate my wardrobe’s palette.
So inward recent years I've attempted to correct this wrong, together with every bit London Fashion Week is inward town, I decided to accept a nosey together with acquire involved.
It started amongst a view to the Blogger Love fashion consequence which took house at the Oxo Tower the other week. The demonstrate non only featured a catwalk, but it introduced me to a host of British jewellery together with accessory designers.
I spoke to Nadia Minkoff, a designer who boasted approximately beautiful necklace designs including approximately pieces made solely for LFW. For us mere mortals, in that location were also approximately non bad contention pieces, including a Big Ben pendant which I picked up. It industrial plant non bad amongst casual tops together with is my go-to accessory when wearing block colours.
Other brands I noted were Boho Betty, which had approximately simple, elegant bangles combining metals amongst colours.
After the Blogger Love event, I decided to attend fashion calendar week itself. Well sort of. I was besides deadening inward registering my involvement for tickets to the shows. However, this year, London Fashion Week is opened upward to all, amongst events, popular ups together with screenings of the shoes taking house at Golden Square inward Soho.
I took a sneak video of the Topshop Unique, which was beingness streamed alive before today:
And of course, inward the interests of fashion, I tried to construct at to the lowest degree approximately elbow grease amongst pilus together with makeup, despite having slept at 3am the dark before together with having only 1 hr to blow dry out my hair, create approximately strategically placed waves amongst my Braun straightener together with position together an outfit.
I ended upward wearing a LOT of black, but hey, if it's practiced plenty for Kim...
My accessories were close none real except for my Nadia Minkoff Big Ben pendant, which I intend finished off the await quite well. Gladly, the Golden Square shindig was relatively depression key, together with hence I didn’t experience underdressed.
There was a prissy buzz on Golden Square amongst deck chairs set out for people to accept their ain 'front row' experience. If you're inward London over the side yesteryear side span of days it's definitely worth a look.
So that's my initiative London Fashion Week experience. I'm consequence tempted to view 1 of the shows afterwards on inward the week. Who knows, I powerfulness larn a affair or two.
