Burberry Prorsum Show Fall 2012

It feels like a long long time ago since I sat at my PC and typed into my blog. I've been using the old iphone for the ease and the fact I have been well and truly busy with this 4 week uni project I have been working on.

Old Chav Burberry...
So

I went to Burberry show (AGAIN!!!) on monday. No biggy... ;). A lot of celebrity spotting took place! Alexa Chung, Anna Wintour, Will.i.am, Amir Khan, Rosie Huntington Whitely and Labyrinth to name a few.

I am a huge fan of Christopher Bailey since he turned Burberry around from it's fake gypsy chav image, (remember those days?). How on earth did he do it, I will never know?!?

Key Details:

  1. Peplums
  2. Nipped in waist
  3. Pencil skirt with a waterfall ruffle - note the one hemmed with zipper teeth!
  4. Tiers of fringing
  5. VELVET
  6. Country critters - owl, sparrows and dogs embroiderd on shirts. Foxes heads in gold on the clutch bags. Duck heads on the umberellas.
  7. Shearing lined coats.
  8. Swingback coats, or jackets with ruffles at the lower back.
  9. The lush gold studding on the clutch bags and gloves!









The ending was gorgeous. The show finished with a lightening noice and thundershowers beating down on the glass roof. Rain never looked so good! The model came down the runway with false rain (silver confetti) and autumnal coloured umberellas.














Much Love

LADYFASHION&GOLDENGLOBES: Angelina Jolie

Last year she must have been my best dressed in the green long sleeved Versace number. See below.

Atelier Versace has hit it again. With a white tight one shoulder silk floor length gown with hints of red. Note the matching clutch and lips! See below.

Brangelina are just perfection.

LADYFASHION&GOLDENGLOBES: Dianna Argon

I am a big lover of the London brand Giles. And the spring 2012 collection was flawless. Its brilliant to see it on the red carpet.

Be sure to check out the Giles collection here if you haven't seen it:

LADYFASHION&GOLDENGLOBES: Rooney Mara

Edgy, chic, sophisticated and sexy.

Since taking to role of Lisabeth Salander, Rooney Mara has travelled the globe and walked multiple red carpet film premieres for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Her style has transformed. I need to know who her stylist it!!! Mara has been seen rocking Givenchy couture, Miu Miu, Dion Lee, Valentino and Rodarte.

Mara was nominated in the Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama category for her role in ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.’

At the Golden Globes 2012 - she shows of her porcelain toned body in a Nicci Ricci bondage vs net style dress with a deep neckline. Her black hair is scraped back into a ponytail. See images below.

My eyes on this budding ‘risk-taking’ fashionista, she is definitely one fashionista to watch in 2012. I hope that she keeps the black hair and porcelain skin after the Dragon Tattoo movies are done. She is just so fresh and new - the next Angelina Jolie perhaps?
