The Big City

It was my mumma’s birthday last week so as a little treat we went up to London for 3 days to see the sights, cram in as much shopping as possible, and to see Russell Brand’s Give it Up gig for Comic Relief. Epic. That is all.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!

Camden was AMAAAAAZING. Like i felt at home and so comfortable there – everyone was so bright and colourful! Oh and the shopping was divine!

Though i must say my fave part of the week had to be when we were gawping at the Louboutins in Selfridges, and someone asked me where i had bought my shoes from! I was stood surrounded by gorgeous heels and an expensive-looking lady asked me when i got MY shoes from?! I felt hideously common when i replied “errm Camden Market”. The shoes in question are gold sparkly jelly shoes, £25 from a little shop in Camden. Similar to the ‘Melissa’ shoes HERE.

ULTIMATE COMPLIMENT!

Reminds me of the last time i was in Selfridges when the Vivienne Westwood sales assisstant complimented my Primark top – ha! Proves that you don’t need to splash the cash to look expensive!

Keep Stylish!

ALBERTA FERRETTI SS13

The thing i love about this garment is the intricacy of the embellishment. The beads and sequins adorn the fabric seamlessly, creating a whole new material that sparkles in the light. It also is an elegant twist on the peplum trend! Perhaps a beautiful wedding outfit? But then again, wouldn’t want to outshine the bride!

JASON WU SS13

Jason Wu’s SS13 collection – TO DIE FOR. He has incorporated the harness idea into stunning and striking dresses, giving them a completely new dynamic. I feel another Wu FASHvent post coming! I love the deep navy colour of this garment, with the stark white contrast of the chest piece, are they snowflakes, are they flowers? Either way, i’m loving it! The flash of leg keeps is sleek and sexy whilst the chiffon gives it a delicacy that is really pretty.

VIVIENNE WESTWOOD SS13

Westwood, the Queen of Quirky! Nothing quite compared to her SS13 fashion show – oompa loompa makeup, extravagant up dos and her signature wacky garments! I love this one. The sparkly playsuit is very wearable, but the high cut on the crotch makes it strikingly different and very high-end! This is totally my pick for New Years Eve Parties!

Remember to look out for tomorrow’s ‘Fash’vent Calendar post!

Happy Christmas! <3
