The Look Show (and the rest of my LFW)

I was lucky enough to win tickets to the Look Show at Westfield Stratford City on Saturday thanks to a competition on the Monsoon website. Unlike the other catwalk shows, the Look Show displays the clothes currently on the high street which is good because you can buy what you see and there were definitely more than a few looks that I liked. I loved the colour pops, high waisted skirts, boxy jackets and fitted silhouettes. The stand out collection for me was Urban Outfitters and the whole experience was an awful lot of fun!

After the show with my goody bag in tow, I went around some of the shops with Yishyene, Lux and Alice. We had a whole host of discount vouchers and promises of more free champagne but in the end I didn't actually buy a single thing. I did however try on these amazing Miss Selfridge platforms...

The whole experience of the Look Show was a lot of fun and that's not just down to the free bubbly and food but also because I got to meet a lot of lovely bloggers. The best thing about London Fashion Week is definitely all the wonderful people you get to meet. I've met so many fantastic ladies over the weekend so hello to you all, it was a pleasure. Plus I also got to hang out with people I hadn't seen for ages.

On Friday I spent a lot of the day with my real life friend and fellow blogger Lulu. We checked out the Paul Costello show together and then headed over to the IFB Crumpets and Crystals event at the Swarovski Crystallised Lounge. I was utterly hopeless and hardly took any photos. But I did mange to pinch this one from Lizzy so thank you for letting me use it.

The event was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and it was really interesting to hear from Susie, Mattias, Shini, YM Ousley and Nadia about how they have monetized their blogs.

The rest of my fashion week experience was spent hanging around Somerset house with a bunch of lovely bloggers and very quickly checking out the designer exhibition on Sunday. I love the exhibition because you get to see the jewellery, clothes and shoes up close and personal.

  5. Miss Selfridge do often have amazingly outrageous shoes. I look, and I drool, but then don't buy!

    I like that picture of you guys very much, you look so happy and chilled out. I'm glad the Look show was fun. Also still can't believe that you got to go to Giles - much jealous! xx

  10. Those shoes were awesome weren't they? I took a couple but for some reason my camera skills on my shoddy little digital camera was really lacking that day and they came out blurry! LFW seems like such a long time ago now doesn't it? Such a lovely photo of Hayles, Jazmine and me! Thanks for taking it Hannah :) xxx
