You are probably sick to death of AW11 posts, but I thought I'd put you through the joy of seeing one again- my top 3 collections so far (I'm still waiting for Viktor and Rolf).

(Read on and you'll see why I put in the end photo with the shrine like objects.)

Well now I'll let you ponder on these collections- there's a lot to ponder about. 


Plus feel free to email me at izzy.dot@btinternet.com for any comments about these collections, or your favourites, or just maybe a little review? 

This is not a AW11 orientated post.

What I wore this weekend: Camden Market bag, Zara Dress, Vintage top, Miss Selfridge Shirt, Vintage Jacket. I think layering will be a key feature blooming into my looks-- I just can't get enough of that style seen in AW11 catwalks. 

Shirt Topshop, Shorts Modcloth, Bone Neckalce Tokyo Lux, Fishnets Topshop, Socks Asos, Jacket Topshop, Shoes Nasty Gal

Super quick update! Sorry for the lack of posting this week, I've sadly had to suffer revision for many exams (I literally thought this week was never going to end). Anyhow, on to a happier note- IT' HALF TERM! Yet the week is already filling up; tomorrow I'm going to Camden to then go see Chrystal castles, typical numerous marshmallow smothered sleepovers, Art coursework, revision and more revision (oh the joys of being a teenager).

Now enough of my rant. Recently I have been feeling the Spring vibes even though the catwalks are already onto AW11. When putting outfits together at the moment, all I can think of is Vibrant smooth sorbets and  kaleidoscopic sweets-  Thank god for Jeremy Scott (seen above) for keeping that infusion in his AW11. Keeping all of that in mind, whilst musing over high street brands the outfit above came to mind. Keeping it clean with the scallop finish, then adding summer fluffy warm textures with the hat (hair would be worn down), and of course I could not resist adding a futuristic gothic ora with the bone necklace, fishnets and metallic jacket.

Plus due to half term it means I can post more frequently. A huge thank you for all the new followers and comments. Also one last thing, soon it'll be 1 year since I started this blog; so look forward to a bigger giveaway than last time!

Will be replying to comments this weekend


P.S Don't forget to check out my collection here

A rather successful weekend, I managed to venture to Camden and then in Contrast visit the Pure Trade show. For once I had money(!!!!!!), due to last week being my birthday. I managed to purchase a few bits and bobs, that you can see in my next post. The Pure trade show, shows all the latest brands collections'- SS11 and AW11. The Pure Spirit section is more so a showcase of the difusion range/ younger range of brands, and Pure London has the extra touch of class added to the brands. Sadly due to the hectic schedule  (I was literallty running around with 10 mins to spare from place to place: Dance to Camden, Camden to 'one-of-those-family-get-together-thingys', homework to the wild Londoners of the tube, the tube to the Pure show, Pure show to Grandma's. You get the gist, sorry for the rather unnecessary and irrelevant weekend schedule), I only got time to see Pure Spirit. With freebies on offer how could any teenager resist? I managed to find myself with free copies of  Drapers; a trend Bible and Notion Magazine at the end. There were some utter cutesy granny chic brands, floral heavens, 50's chic, and florescent street style brands (including Lazy Oaf). From seeing the AW11 brand collections, the high street seems to be gripping more than ever onto dainty 50's and 60's styled garments, except there's an exuberance of bright colour and print. Creating the perfect combo of granny chic- I think I'll be borrowing my Grandma's clothes more often. Texture still a key element for updating the look, with new fabrics such as plastics and satins bursting in. AW11 is going to be fun to play around with, so much so I cannot literally wait- Ebay here I come. 

 P.S: I think it's fair enough to say GaGa has outdone herself with arriving at the Grammy's in an egg designed by Hussein Chalayan. Wouldn't it be cool if we could all arrive to place like that or maybe have Hussein Chalayan design something for us? Trying to keep the week optimistic; with a much awaited half term approaching. 

Bugs crawling round your neck, a shoe on your head and a leaf suit- however, it's just a representation of unconscious thoughts. Take a dive into the surrealist world, playing with reality and creating dreamscape pieces. It started in the 20th Century with poets and Artists, and of course this influenced fashion. Famous Artists inclued Dali, Magritte, De Chirico, Man Ray to Oppenhiem. To all those who live in London, you may have been aware of the Ballet Russes exhibition at the V & A, costumes designed by  De Chirico. Though it was not just costume design, there was a place in Fashion too; seen in the works of Schiaparelli- Chanel said 'The famous Artist who makes clothes'. 

So lets fly off with the birds,

that's already flown with the coo coo birds.
