Outfit Planning - London Fashion Week - For Day 1 Posted by Unknown |

It's pretty intimidating figuring out what to wear to fashion week – street style has rocketed so high into the stratosphere that the very thought of being on the same pavement as the myriad style star editors, models, stylists, photographers and, of course, bloggers is enough to bring you out in a cold sweat. This year I'm lucky enough to be doing just a tiny bit of fashion week and though it's only a toe-dip (two shows – FelderFelder tomorrow and Christopher Kane on Monday) I do want to feel good on the outfit front. So here's today's outfit prep. Rocking the monochrome trend with this fabulous oversized cardigan By Malene Birger, going a bit casual and spring-like with Free People daisy denim and proudly sporting two of my most cherished leather items, a Sophie Hulme satchel and Sam Edelman Petty booties (both excellent sale purchases I must add :)) and jewellery by my new favourite Portuguese Heart. So wish me luck and check back in over the weekend for some fashion show snaps. 

ps. Happy Valentine's Day! I'm writing this in a rush as, shock horror, we are actually going out for a meal tonight. And I'm wearing a new dress! Oh, the excitement... 

By Malene Birger AW13 // Copenhagen Fashion Week Posted by Unknown |

I've just been checking out the AW13 collection from my NFD (New Favourite Designer) By Malene Birger. The Danish designer has just celebrated her 10 year anniversary and showed her latest collection at Copenhagen Fashion Week. From what I can see, the collection references include the 50s (long leather gloves, voluminous coats and scooped sweater necklines) and the 70s (wide-brimmed hats, tailored suits and furry gilets). Trousers come in skinny, tapered, tailored and billowing and the collection boasts the fashion blogosphere favourite white pointy heel, monochrome palette and geometric patterning on accessories. I need to take a closer look to unearth more, but for now, I am quite sated and even more hooked. You can see the full show on video below.
