London Fashion Week

This week it one exciting time to be around the city. London Fashion week kicked off on Friday and continues to this wednesday, where designers Antonio Berardi, Nicole Farhi, and of course the quintessentially British brand Burberry all show their Autumn/Winter '10 collections. My most anticipated shows this season are Erdem, Louise Goldin and Basso & Brooke as these designers never dissapoint. Im interested to see where Louise Goldin takes her futuristic coned-bra beauties of seasons past for winter, and Basso & Brooke's Carribean colour-schemes. We've already had a sneak preview of Erdem's satin blue petal dress worn by Ashely Olsen at the Golden Globes, which has wet our appetites and left us hungry for more. Watch this space....

The Dresses that got away...

Left on the rails but not forgotten, these dresses may not have made it on the red carpet at The Grammy's or even the Golden Globes, but are still leave us frothing at the mouth and delirious with desire.


Glamourous silk drape Lanvin dress.
(Keep an eye out for Alber Elbaz's pre-fall collection where mix-match animal prints and Parisian chic are tres beau)


Lavender Gucci dress, with contrasting noir detail and central thigh-length slit.


Nude Grecian maxi-gown by Elie Saab.


Powder blue hand-stitched dress, Elie Saab Couture

Google with the girls

The end of January has come and gone, the new years resolutions have taken a turn for the worse and perhaps worst of all - the hope that spring is just round the corner has faded. As a little pick me up, myself and some girlfriends decided to reap the benefits of Google Images, lay in bed watching deal or no deal and surround ourselves with stuffed animals, cups of hot sugary tea and fur blankets....here are the results. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did:
