Ooh Elle


I haven't been able to put this down since I got it, I have been carrying it everywhere like a bible! The pages are so glossy and full of images that just draw you in. It has definitely highlighted the trends that are my favourite and the ones I am going to try and recreate, Gucci and of course Celine are two stand out shows for me. Also, loving the coverage of the amazing catwalk sets and designs, the sets even managed to rival the clothes for my attention, and Elle Collections beautifully showcased all the highlights of all the fashion weeks, jealous I wasn't invited!


Another interesting article in Elle Collections was the fur debate, with fur on so many catwalks this season it's a hot topic, Real or Fake? The fur debate is ongoing and something that Fashion will never leave behind, cultures and designers differ in opinion, I myself also change my mind regularly,I see both sides of the debate, how about you?

The Good Seventies




I am loving the new A/W collection at Chloe, it's a culmination of all the good elements of fashion design from the seventies. Chloe have always been very 1970's inspired, but this seasons collection has seen Chloe pass through the 1970's decade from young hippie to sophisticated professional. The new collection brings the Charlie girl of the 70's into today and makes her that bit more sophisticated. I absolutely love all the variations of beige on the catwalk, what does everyone else think about the influx of beige this upcoming season?
