Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2012 collection

Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2012 collection

Shorter with mixed prints and white mesh separated by three-dimensional 
swirls of corded embroidery was the bulk of McCartney's collection this 
season. Gone is the season of tight clingy dresses, the new inspiration seems 
to be art. This collection is highly creative and looks very A level textiles inspired, which 
isn't a bad thing. McCartneys profits have been going up since the start of this 
year and don't show any sign of slowing down with the preview of next season.

Antiques blues for this spring

 Band of outsiders. Seizing inspiration from Peter Weir's hypnotic films, so 
they sent out a sampler platter of looks that conjured his film's Edwardian 
feel. Gorgeous dresses with antique style print. I loove the transition from 
white moving to blue floral prints..one of my favourite collections of 
New York fashion week 

Alexander Wang. What started as an athletic 'car racer' looks soon turned 

into elegant prints with a twist.Like before the transition from colour to 

print was apparent.. Although this time the print was all over but the 

colour was sort of dip dyed.. almost like the trend of ombre hair. Combined 

with tough leather or bold pockets and zips this is a really great collection

Narciso Rodriguez Specialises in minimalist subtlety.

It started simply, with a black T-shirt, its shoulders slightly padded, 

worn with a pair of white trousers with a jagged black waistband. 

But the patch working quickly became more intense. Dresses were pieced 

together like a puzzle from with blue antique floral print. Very elegant 

and crisp. All these shows remind me of antique blue and white floral 

plates and table wear. I think this is one of the key looks for next Spring.

Fall 2011 trend report

Alot of polka dots, sixties themed, and college type garments seem 

to be the main trends for this coming fall. Designers such as Rodarte 

and Maison Martin Margiela seemed to bring the idea of collaging to life 

using fabrics, by draping & folding. Can't wait to get out the knits and 

start layering for winter:):)

Lucy in Disguise collection

I've only just stumbled across Lilly Allen+Sarah Owen's collection for Lucy in disguise.. 

it's amazing, particularly in loove with this unique print dress

the collection is full of floral and kitsch prints in daytime and evening wear.

These are just a few of my favourite pieces...

I'd team the fortnums dress £185 with these suede multi strap boots 

from topshop for those English rainy days over summer  

with the Moschino bottle top jacket thrown over the top

Finishing the look with this stunning 50's mother of pearl bracelet 

Just had to add this amazing ornate beaded clutch would liven up any LBD

Can't wait to visit London next to experience their shop:)

Polka dot Summer

Alexa Chung & Keira knightley proving dots are still in fashion

AZTEC fashion

Urban outfitters have some gorgeous Aztec prints 

and patterns collection at the moment.

this sort of print is great for the transition into 

summer, I don't know why but when i think of Aztec 

i think of the hot summer and holidays:)

Loove this aztec style dress from Miss Selfridge
