Jonathan Saunders, London Fashion Week A/W 11


Jonanthan Saunders created one of my favourite collections of London Fashion Week!
The collection is a beautiful mixture of roaring 20s
inspired prints, including a beautiful bird print
(a LFW mini-trend in itself this year).

I loved the colour palette from the shades of emerald and sapphire to the soft cream and sophisticated black.


What I love more than the shows itself is
spending time backstage.
I really enjoy watching the whole process unfold from the hair and make-up to the catwalk run-through.
Jonathan Saunders was a particularly good show to be at backstage as there was a fantastic atmosphere!

Here are some of my photos from backstage at Jonathan Saunders where you can see the models getting the final touch for the catwalk show above. What did you think of the collection?

London Fashion Week Top Ten A/W 11

Firstly, sorry for the HUGE amount of time passed
since my last blog post!
The past fortnight has been manic, both in the build-up to,
and during London Fashion Week and I feel like I haven't stopped.
I think that I've only just managed to come out the
other side with the help of my two best friends Mr expresso and Miss Berocca.
It's been an exciting few weeks working on LFW
and I can't wait to tell you all about my favourite bits...


Firstly, it makes sense to start from the top and tell you
about my favourite shows from LFW.
You can also remind yourself of my highlights from last London Fashion Week.
So, here is my top ten of shows:


2. Jonathan Saunders

3. Acne

4. Erdem

5. Burberry

6. Christopher Kane

7. Roksanda Ilincic

8. Holly Fulton

9. Charles Anastase

10. Richard Nicoll

London College of Fashion, MA Exhibition


Wouldn't you just love to carry this briefcase to work everyday?
You'd certainly be the height of sophistication on the tube,
despite a few backward glances.

This is my favourite piece from the
London College of Fashion MA Exhibition.

It was designed by Oliver Ruuger who is studying for an MA in Fashion Artefact.
Definitely a name for the future!

Asos Clutch Heartbreak

I've just spied this Green Portfolio Envelope Clutch in the latest asos.com magazine for their colour blocking feature, only to find that it's sold out. Mon Dieu!
I just love the art deco look of the clutch and the bold colours.
Let's just hope that they bring it back after popular demand.

Broadway Market, London Fields

One of my favourite things to do on a Saturday is walk along the canal to Broadway Market in London Fields.


Broadway Market has the most incredible array of foods and is as beautiful to the eye as it is in the mouth.





It’s often impossible to choose what to have for lunch; the possibilities are endless from Nigerian curries, sweet and savoury pastries, freshly baked cakes, Persian baklava, fruit smoothies, Italian ciabatta sandwiches, Mexican burritos, German sausages… It’s making me hungry just thinking about it!
