London Fashion Week Day 1 | Somerset House Street Style

London Fashion Week isn’t something I’ve experienced before. Being a complete fashion week novice I didn’t apply for any shows, but what I did discover is that it’s absolutely fine to just pop down to Somerset House and mooch about, snapping away at street style.

My beautiful cousin Kyle lives in London and she was lucky enough for me to drag her around ;). It was incredible seeing all the hustle and bustle and although it would’ve been amazing to see a few shows I was completely content running around with my camera! I also didn’t quite expect that so many people would ask for myphoto – that was weird (they also snapped away at Ky, but that’s a given – she’s a beauty). We spent a good few hours there and I thought you guys might quite like to see my favourite looks from the day?

Hat: American Apparel (similar here). Denim Jacket: Urban Outfitters. Playsuit: Vintage (similar here). Bag: DSUK. Brouges: ASOS. Lipstick: Kate Moss for Rimmel 107

It wouldn’t be right if I didn’t show you what I wore, would it? There were lots of women braving the bitterly cold day in stiletto’s but heels aren’t for me at the best of times and I wasn’t about to feel uncomfortable with a whole day on my feet – so obviously I opted for comfort.

Did any of you lovely lot attend this year? I’d love to know your favourite look from the above – mine has to be that handsome chappy in that AMAZING coat!

Much love, xx

London Fashion Week Fearne Cotton's S/S14 Launch with Very.co.uk

Dress: MeeMee.com Boots: TK Maxx Hat: Topshop

A few weeks before London Fashion Week was due to kick off an exciting email popped in to my inbox from the lovelies at Very.co.uk, inviting me to the launch of Fearne Cotton’s S/S14 collection. I was over the moon and of course said yes right away!

Fearne is somewhat of an idol in my eyes...everything about her is so effortlessly fabulous and I completely admire how much she has accomplished over the years. When I think of her style I always think casually glamorous - so I tried to encapsulate that in my dress code for the evening. I picked this t-shirt dress from MeeMee.com as I wanted the outfit to be quite simple, but also have a little jazzy, jazzy. You know how much I love black and white and the scallop bottom detailing really makes it for me. When Gizzi Erskine strolled up to me in the reception room and asked where my dress was from I pretty much died on the spot. MeeMee - you are fabulous! 

Needless to say, I was bloody nervous being surrounded with a room full of rather important people however, the event was so well put together and the venue was beautiful, but being hosted in the Ballroom at Claridge’s you wouldn’t really expect anything less.

We were greeted with cocktails and champagne and whilst awkwardly prancing around the likes of Tinchy Stryder, Dionne Bromfield and Tanya Burr I made my way through to the catwalk area ready for the show to begin.

Fearne’s collections are always fun and inspiring and next year’s will be no exception. With bold colours and popping prints here are some of my favourites from the catwalk.

Fearne looked stunning, Chloe Howl’s set was amazing (check out her music if you haven’t already, she’s fabulous) and once I’d managed to get over my nerves I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and felt so privileged to be invited. Thank you so much to Very for giving me the opportunity to view the collection and for organising such a wonderful event!

What do you think of the collection? Is there anything that catches your eye? I for one can't wait for 2014 to role around to get my hands on a few pieces :)

If you want to have a look behind the scenes at the buildup before the show and sneak peaks at the catwalk, you can watch Very's video here (you might even spot my little face behind Stooshe & Lydia Bright!)
