LFW: My picks part 2- Holly Fulton

This just pinched it as my favourite collection. I loved loved loved it. Freely admit that I'm not keen on the blue longer patterned dresses (they were very pretty but they are just not my style or colour) but everything else I loved and I want. The black graphic lines and colour pops with the subtle nod to the sixties is my kinda thing. I'm surprised in myself that I even liked the lips, a little cheeky motif that avoid being too cutesy or tacky. I've been tempted for a while to buy something from Holly Fulton for ASOS (which is now on sale!) but the temptation is over, I'm smitten.

LFW: My picks part 1

So after all the shows, the colours and models (all from the comfort of my sofa), this is my pick of the bunch of LFW i.e. the things that I would wear tomorrow should someone happen to magically make them appear in my wardrobe (in a size 10 pretty please)

The biggest surprise for me was the Issa show.  I couldn't care less what Kate Middleton is wearing and my assumption after that blue dress, which shock horror I thought was a bit meh, was that the collection would be well a bit meh. And yeah of course some of it was BUT the 4 pieces below are up there in my top selection so well done Issa, you proved me wrong.

David Williamson, in particular the grey and black combo, this is something I am currently loving for spring, if it ever comes! Good job I have a grey faux fur stole to channel the trend for now.

Charles Anastase, very simple, beautiful fabrics, beautifully cut and that horse dress is sublime!

LFW: Sass and Bide

I'm obviously craving spring and the sun because I loved this show. It's so gray and miserable outside that the unashamedly bright clashing colours were a welcome change from the maroons, blacks and grey that are being shown elsewhere and the colours that we have been wearing for what seems like an eternity. The clothes might be totally impractical for winter who cares, I could have posted the whole collection I enjoyed it so much!

There is a theme here in common with the Proenza Schouler show, geometric patterns, colour and structure that I'll be more than happy to see come the end of this year, and I'll defintely be on the lookout for a patterned jumpsuit.
