Trendspotting: ss13 Zara Skort

                 

             

It feels like I have disappeared the face of the earth! I have been extremely busy the past month. Have to give Thanks to Cherish for being consistent with the blog. I wanted to do this post over a month ago. The pictures were taken that long ago but I didn't want to upload them simply because the shoot was taken in the evening so the pictures came out dark and rather unflattering. But I got over it, so here goes...

*apply American accent* What is it?? Is it a skirt? Are they shorts? NO! it's a SKORT!!
So I bought this mini skort from Zara. Dissect that word and its a skirt-short. It's still in stock for £25.99. It's worth every penny I think. It's been so popular with bloggers too! I absolutely love it. Even fashion icons such as Olivia Palermo and model Karolina Kurkova have been spotted in a skort. They are so chic and up to date. I remember back in February/ March when I did the spring/ summer 13 trend report. I stated that asymmetrics would be in this season, but I did mention I weren't quite sure how the high street would embrace this trend. And voila!! It's the skort! I love it because it can be easily be dressed up or dressed down. It proving to be my go-to summer staple!

The Generic ; Booty Shorts

Roy Litchenstien : A Retrospective. II

Evening guys, I finally got the chance to upload the second part to the Roy Litchenstien post, well here is what I wore to the gallery. Your are going to be seeing those strapped sandals a lot for a while. 

OOTD: Medi-Dress

in the words of the Reaper,

WASSSSSSUUUUUUURRR'P!

What's truly up guys? (I wish our viewers would comment, at least tells us what you like or don't). Moving along its been a lovely day, my most relaxed day this week so far.. well I'm having one of those anxiety attacks of both excitement and sheer bewilderment. Long story short, for a good chunk of my academic years I studied art. Last year happened *pause* so I decided (I had no choice) to take this gap year that's been hell for the past 6 months though I'm ever so grateful for now. I then decided to change my path due to realizing what generation I live in and decided to do something challenging I had always told self I couldn't. I'm currently sitting in my bed, looking at the clutter I've caused by trying to tidy up, ironically this is my state of mind. I'm a busy messy bubble bee because I want to reorganize my life- as well as that I'm a city girl, I love being on the go. Basically I have an interview with a university tomorrow and I'm bricking it!!

Ultimate Love; Richard Nicoll

I'm back from Bristol, tired as hell! Ill post about my trip tomorrow, thought I should do a post on a designer I've loved since last year, Richard Nicholl. Another London born CSM grad who's designs scream out geometry, minimalism and like most British manufactured designers its almost inevitable that the designs have a chic finish. To me this mean the garment is one to treasure the term chic ooze's of everything classy, bold, elegant and the modern woman. I've decided to upload both the SS13 and SS12 collections, to be honest purely because I'm still in love with last years floral prints, the perspex materials, cold pallets and the more interesting layering and textures just as much as I love the new collection which is currently filled with the new so-loved sports luxe, the reoccurring leopard-like print, the mesh seems to have replaced the sheer materials we saw last year. I will start with this years collection.

Outdoor(sy) Casual: Must Haves!

So after trials and tribulations, I am finally ready to go to Bristol, have a little time away from London and truly get white girl wasted with my girl. This is good bye to excessive use of anything that could hinder my focus on my academic goals and work. Seeing as soon as I get back from Bristol I be will starting my short course in Politics of Identity at Birkbeck Uni, I'm also studying Maths seeing as I never listened in high school. May comes soon after and I start training for work soon as training is over its my birthday. I'll be 21!! Woop woop! Fun times! Every one loves a busy schedule right?- right!? *exhales* I have a whole load  more planned after but not until all these small things work out.

I'm going to Bristol for a BBQ and '4/20' so I have to dress accordingly, and there are few things a lass just has to have. Ill be showing you what I consider to be vital things one needs when going away- in this case to a casual/outdoorsy event- but a bitch gotta stay cute(in the cheapest way possible- for now of course). After all Its a BBQ  things could get messy!

ss13 Trend Report!! (Again)| Fashion 2013| Fashion Week| Fashion Shows

So Cherish accidentally deleted the ss13 Trend Report *gasps* lol I know I posted it 3months ago but we aren't even into spring/ summer yet so it can still come in handy lol.
Here's the post exactly how it was back then with no changes. Yes I'm a computer whizz. I managed to get it all back.

Hi guys!! I've been soooooooo reluctant to do a Spring/ summer trend report ever since the ss13 fashion shows finished simply because I didn't want to do it too early in case I have more winter stuff to post. Turns out I'm extremely busy so I have no time for neither! It's 4am and I've been sitting here for God knows how long watching fashion shows.. Once I start there's no stopping me lol.
I have a love hate relationship with ss fashion and that's because it has soooooooo much variety and we get to wear pretty much anything we want. However its trends are ALWAYS closely linked to the previous season or very much alike to the ss fashion the year before with the tiniest change. Of course there are new trends but I could do with massive changes. 
Now lets start lol.

REPORT1: Checks, Brights and Florals
- I absolutely loved the LV show. It had the 1960s theme with the mod look. The whole floor was yellow tiled and the models were coming off escalators. I think the tiles gave it away that the main theme would be checks. Nevertheless it was exciting to watch and intriguing as the models walked out in pairs. Marc Jacobs did well there as he had clear visuals of maxi, midi and mini. On that note checks are definitely in next season.
- Bright and bold colours are going to be key trend next season. I was in love with a few jumpsuits from Issa and they were accessorised well with gold jewellery. Clashing brights are also in. I take it colour blocking is back! But please keep it chic, classy and clean! I chose the dress from Christian Dior's collection as it has clashing brights. If you look closely you'll see there is a streak of bright pink under the bright orange.Sounds odd? But it looks good! 
- Yes florals are back in! I'm quite happy about that because I didn't get to enjoy them as much during ss12 cos I was hesitant of them remembering how much I had worn that trend the year before that (or before that) lol. Next season the florals have taken a different turn. They are coming in digital prints rather than illustrated prints. So be careful of bees this summer haha. Just Cavalli, Holly Fulton, Etro and Edern have a nice collection of these florals.
