Street Style is always the best way to gauge trends of the week during fashion weeks. A lot of fur, a lot of brights and a lot of whites. The bestest - GEMMA - and I are off to London Fashion Weekend on Saturday and this is our inspo. Gem I feel you channelling the first look OR a matching trouser and top combo OR an A-line and cute shirt and hat OR the love of your life Alexa! I want to wear so many I love capes and animal print at the mo, however as I am poor and not a model I am making use of what I already have. And lo and behold Molly from the Sats is wearing basically my outfit. Spooky! Hope you all enjoyed LFW..and if you're not ready for it to be over...fret not my little divas! I am reporting back from LFWEnd, so calm yourselves and get excited for more fashion lovin'.

Four

Day four was the biggie for all the hot-to-tot designers, celeb spots and right honourable editors. Animal Mania, Acid Brights, Material Mash-Ups and Evening Splendour AND a début of the hottest kind.
Get your perve on:

Sophia Webster
My little pony much?! Sweet shop kitsch eye- popping fantasy. Can I take you home Sophia Webster and you can brighten up my life?! Stupidly good with a sugar rush of excitement. Totes amay.






Mother of Pearl
Print sensations with every turn. Animal, nautical and more animal. This collection is so relaxed and blatant, I love the boldness. I think this collection is pretty self explanatory. I'm making the eyes at that bee coat.








Antonio Berardi
This collection is all about the big shapes and long capes. Add the token embellishments and I think we have a winner.






Pringle of Scotland
The essence of this collection is the attention to detail upon otherwise simple staple pieces. Feather shoulders, ombre prints with matching booties. Everyday elegance.






Christopher Kane
This show was certainly the talk of London town on LFW day 4. A plethora of plunder on offer with typical Kane velvets and floral appliqués and newbie furs and feathers. So much to look at and consider with this array of wonder. Personal faves are the fur off the shoulder numbers. For a guy who's signature is not having a signature, he sure does know how to make em stop and stare. Amazing feat Christopher Kane and I take my imaginary hat off to you.










Erdem
Erdem my gorgeous man why do you have to tease me so? Swiftly becoming my ultimate lust, Erdem has just pasted fashion porn on my page and I can do nothing but let it carry me away into a heaven of visual ecstasy. God knows what would happen if I had actually attended.
Classic Erdem neons splashed upon a most effective black canvas. Typical flower appliqués, with new velvet for the Dark Romance feel.
Beautifully dark and beautifully addictive. May have to start up an Erdem Anonymous...










Burberry Prorsum
Outerwear overload clad with heart and animal prints to die for. Bailey's ability to re-invent a Burberry signature piece so many times is admirable. More than one trench is ok right?  Fetish rubbers, furs and metallics make for an exciting yet palatable collection. Welcome to Wild Romance.










Giles
An extravagant, dramatic tale of heaven to hell metamorphosis. Sullen complexions meet metallic and pink hues meets black elegance and grunge. Craftsmanship is of the essence with this collection and stand-alone from the majority of collections this year. I commend Giles for that factor alone. Plus black is particular fad of mine so he has my vote.








Tom Ford
The début show from this gorgeous man has proven a resounding success. Claiming he was '...tired of minimal..' electrifying colour explosion is Tom Ford's way this season. Sequins galore, material mash-ups, over the knees and comic-style. What a show-stopping assortment. A man who can dress a woman better than she can dress herself AND he would love to settle in London..oh heeeyyy Tom, fancy a bev?!
Seriously good. I can't effing wait for more.
