LONDON FASHION WEEKEND

I was so bummed out to have missed out on London Fashion Week itself (I intend to go next year and nothing will stop me!! I've missed it enough times) but I made it to London Fashion Weekend with my sister, the shopping event that takes place the weekend after LFW at the same venue (Somerset House).

It's basically a huge sample sale where you can buy clothes, shoes and accessories from a variety of designers from Vivienne Westwood to Mawi to DKNY to Juicy Couture. I snapped a few crappy pictures on my phones camera (bad blogger!) to document my day. I'll post my purchases and a few more photos next update!

-----------------------------

A gorgeous khaki trench with insane embellishment

A nubbly, snuggly, alpaca cardigan.. I would've bought this but I have to tell myself that spring/summer is coming and I need to focus on that wardrobe now!

All Saints-style necklaces - totally DIYable with a few keys and a couple of chains. Go forth and create, fellow bloggers! :)

This crazy gladiator ankle boot thingy mesmerised me for a good 3 minutes. Soooo impractical.

Patent clutches and cute kitschy necklaces from Anna Lou of London - this place has the most amazing range of accessories (and one of my purchases came from here!).

Lungta de Fancy - A korean/japanese (not sure which) designed & British made line that made this crazy/sexy/cool tinselly purple body-con dress! Tempted by this too BUT I just ordered a T by Alexander Wang purple body-con dress and can't justify another!

A few miscellaneous shots of Somerset house:

One of my purchases was this waisted baby blue "workers skirt" from American Retro (I think)! Tried it on and couldn't push through the crowd to a mirror so I got my sister to snap a few pictures of it. Can't wait to wear it in summer with little tank tops and corset bras.

Happy after a day of shopping!

Sister moved backwards to include the full pile of our bags on the floor... sooo exhausted!

Hugs and kisses,

Topshop Thrills

Hello :)

Man, I look super awkward in these photos. It was really late at night! But anyway... This is the Topshop top I bought from the sale. I Love love love it. It's so comfortable and I love the drapy details and the zip running up the middle. I'm wearing it with my New Look bandage skirt and my brand new shiny magical amazing stupendous Topshop Emma Cook boots (a gargantuan THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHHHH to Super-Shini who saved the day with these in my size!!!).

I love the clunkiness of these boots. It makes me feel like ROCKING OUT. In a peach-coloured sort of way. Yeah, laugh away.

Tried it on with some bleached out topshop ankle zip jeans... Just for the fun of dressing in head-to-toe Topshop! :)

There are so many more new items coming my way, just you wait and see! So many, in fact, that I'm almost ashamed to show them all off. Hah.

You guys are the best :) Thank you for visiting and commenting!
