Mark Fast SS14 London Fashion Week

Posted on September 16, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

I was very excited to attend the SS14 collection of Mark Fast….. dramatic fringes….bright bold neon yellows with a mix of textures, fabrics and a power parade of body con! The energy in the room was fierce and the models looked like a mix between a gothic grunge chick meets powerful chic!

The collection was daring, elegant and risky…. elegantly cut to fit the body but the fringes were by far my favourite! the army of models bolted out one after the other and the flashes were going wild!

I would mix the crop tops with a suit jacket and a flowy skirt for summer to keep it soft but still have that edgy look!

The power parade of ladies made me wish London was warm all year round! Keep your eyes peeled for when the collection drops next season!

As it was raining in London I whipped my hair up in fierce top knot, brought out my metallic skirt and rocked my fluffy pink jumper with my new printed jacket!

I met the cutest dog at Somerset house…… I really really really want a puppy…. just have to convince the boy! (Please … flutters eyelashes at 100 miles an hour …. end up looking like I have something caught in my eye!)

I can’t wait to give you an overview of my favourite bits of London Fashion Week! This year I have been occupied by work and the weather has been terrible…. next year watch this space so we can see the coolest street stylistas!

LFW SS14 Street Style

Posted on September 13, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

Where do I even start? I finished work at 3 and rushed to Somerset house… got caught in the rain and my feet still hurt but it’s all in the name of fashion. The aim of the game was to look effortless chic with and to find some fashionistas….. Tomorrow I am off to a show in the evening and I hope the weather clears up! I love love love London Fashion Week because the most stylish, weird, outgoing and cookey people are all in one place. There are no rule, wear what you want… be bold, smile, absorb the atmosphere and people watch!

I am wearing my new Aqua printed trousers, they are so fierce and as you already know I have a thing for print! I love clashing prints, mixing it up, wearing double prints and I don’t think this style will ever get old!

Due to the terrible weather I had to put my hair up, I wrapped part of the pony tail around the hairband to complete the look. My jacket is from Zara, my jumper from Forever 21 and my shoes from Topshop! I pinched my clutch from my sister in law (thank you Za Za) and surprisingly it’s from Next!

My lovely friend Chi came along with me, she looked super glam with her printed trousers…. uber cool shoes and amazing statement jacket! Chi has a blog too…. check out her blog here!

I love the statement red jacket, wearing a solid colour and adding a pop of colour always make a statement outfit!

Mixing casual urban style with a cute shirt creates a relaxed look also check out how amazing his trainers are! I have a thing for clean trainers, they look so fresh and the contrasting colour with the high-top shapes inspires me to buy a new pair of kicks!

I love her hair…. she looks so grunge yet pretty! A look which is very hard to pull off and her studded bag adds a dash of kick ass style to her outfit!

One of my favourite stylish people… Deigh Dwight Alexander Smith… he always looks so good so keep your eyes peeled he will be there over fashion week.

I love her jacket and hat… the cute hat is from Topshop… think I need to invest!

Neon fever…. this guys hat looks so cool! I think he made it himself!

The new style of mens fashion with the longer t-shirt and leather leggings reminds me of a mix Kayne meets the matrix! Love it!

Pretty in pastel and oooooo she is even wearing a Prada!

This guy was so cool, I want his waterproof cape he told me he got it from a charity shop for £15….. I want one!

The twins… and they are designers… how amazing are their digital printed dresses! I want to find out more about their brand so will be in contact with them soon!

Beautiful digital prints made here in the UK! ….. Amazing colours!

Oh my… her Prada and gold shoes… I think I want a new Prada now!! (Fashion envy moment)

Thanks guys….. my computer is having a moment so I haven’t uploaded any new videos for a week or two! I will be uploading my new fitness video this weekend and keep you up to date with the fashion show tomorrow! Don’t forget to spread the love….subscribe to my youtube and have an amazing day!

LFW Street Style… Day 2

Posted on February 19, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

London Fashion Week is one of the best events of the year, firstly it lasts for a week… secondly it forecasts the trends for the next season and my favourite reason of all is that the creative minds of the fashion industry are congregated together in the middle of London. Bloggers, designers, models, fashionistas, stylists, photographers and the rest…. if you have any interest in fashion, hang around Somerset House for a few hours and your perception of what ‘fashion’ is should change.

They say a picture can say a thousand words, I could try and explain the buzz and atmosphere but you should try and experience this in person. Rules are thrown out the window, there are no boundaries (well don’t turn up in your birthday suit), clashing prints, coloured hair, neon clutches, capes, drag queens, glitter eyebrows….. It’s exciting to see what people are coming up with, the most influential people in fashion are standing around queuing for shows.

I salute all of the individuals who have their own unique style, don’t be a sheep and follow everyone else …..try something new…. you never know it could actually suit you! This ss13 we will be seeing lots of vibrant neons, double prints and lots of monochrome. An oriental twist of fabrics and cuts will influence this up and coming season so explore and invest in something new.

I hope this street style inspires you to try something new!

Rihanna For River Island… LFW 2013

Posted on February 18, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

So ‘bad girl’ RIRI has finally crossed over to the dark side, welcome to the fashion world. Launching her first collection with River Island ….what were you expecting? I though this could initially go two ways be complete and utter tack or be the best thing since sliced bread.

I had a look at the collection this morning on the internet and was surprised by the reaction, the pieces are bright, cropped, edgy and daring. You have to have a Rihanna figure and attitude to pull these pieces off, the swim suits are WOW with a ‘baywatch’ high cut leg and I think I need to start investing in a decent fitness work out if I attempt to rock this on a night out! The shoes are amazing, this is something I will defiantly be buying, they are statement heels, big and in your face.

What do you think of the collection? Do you already love Rihanna’s style? I like the bright yellow and orange pieces and will be investing in them, I would love to rock the cropped tops but preferably with highwaisted skirts and trousers…. I’m not into showing my 6 pack (I wish)!

The shoes remind me of the Burberry collection last year, military chick but pretty ‘bad ass.’

What do you think? I would wear some pieces but wouldn’t style it differently, I love vibrant colours and head turning pieces but don’t like showing my stomach! What will you be buying?
