Whats Hot and Whats not this Autumn/Winter? 

Well I have been doing a project at college called Fashion collection and realisation so we have been asked to surf the web in search for trends that are in this season. 
First stop was topshop, I found  trends on the site that are in this winter;
* Sensationalist - Jewel encrusted, Shine, Dominatrix, Metallic, Snakeskin, and sequins!












* Pennsylvania - This Androgynous look is full of oversized  outwear but mixed dainty frills and ditsy florals. A lot of faded denim and delicate lace! Masculinity with a feminine twist!














On the online retailers such as ASOS and Misguided these wear the two I checked out they both had camouflage and khaki for one of their trends. 























Also other trends on these two sites were oxblood this is a trend I am loving this winter I have quite a lot of oxblood in my wardrobe! 

Well those were a few of my favourite trends from this years high street and online retailers.

Happy Shopping!

Big October Bash 

Hello everybody, 

Ages ago I promised a charity event and it is finally getting there and we have all sorts of entertainment promised for the evening including myself in a fashion show, live music, cupcakes, cocktails and watch out for that paparazzi!

 


You be welcomed in with a Hollywood red carpet theme with paparazzi! There will be cupcakes, cocktails and crepes made in front of you in a french style. You will be welcomed in to sounds of The Belltones which is a bit of swing to add a bit of class to the evening.
 Shortly after your arrival you will have the joy of watching my fashion I have designed a few of the garments and made them also included are the girls from Shrewsbury College of Arts and Technology from a range of levels. 

So after watching plenty of fashion and listening to lots of swing you are ready for some grub! We have curry for the meat eaters and vegetarian lasagna for the veggies! But don't about eating too much because you soon dance it off with Monsta-Ball (jukebox mama reformed) they have transformed and are back bigger and better! Check out there site currently they are still using their Jukebox mama one as the other is under construction soon to be up and running!

Hello Guys 
I really need to start sitting down and doing this more often, well as it is Fashion week I thought it would be the opportune moment to post!
The designers that had stood out to me most in the London Fashion Week is Ashish he has done a school rebellion based collection a lot of 90's feel in the collection with denim, sequins and sheer fabric it is a very slouchy loose fitted collection. I will be  using him in my research and final major project at college as I find his work very interesting and different.
Another collection that caught my eye was Moschino he did a different take on things and did a futuristic theme but mixed in with a 1960's feel to it with the shapes and details with shrunken shaped garments to be all kitsch. I really enjoyed watching this fashion show as the clean colour white makes the garments look more fresh and clean and more spectacular I think that spring/summer 2013 is all about white. 
These are my two favourite collections so far I am still going through the whole list on www.style.com it gives a excellent variety of the shows and images of them all. 
Thanks for reading I will be back with more !
