NY fashion week S/S 10


(L: Ruffian R: Preen photos: style.com) I'm always fiercely jealous everytime NY fashion week comes round, because there is no place I would rather be. The Ruffian and Preen collections were both pretty strong this season, Preen is my favourite of the two. I like the casual luxe look of this Ruffian outfit (and the shoes, oh my god, but let's focus on the clothes haha) - I like the sheen of the material, the whole look seems like it would be very wearable and very comfortable. I like this Preen dress. Although I'm not normally a fan of lace inserts or body-con, this dress looks like something I might actually wear. However I wouldn't buy it, we all know that Topshop will be bringing out something similar before this can hit the stores. The neckline is my favourite thing about it.


(L: Monique Lhullier R: Erin Wasson x RVCA photos: style.com) According to style.com, Lhullier's show was a bit of a mess, but from the photos the clothes look good. I'm not too sure what the hats were doing - they didn't add anything to the outfits. This was my favourite dress, I love the print and neck, the sleeves are adorable. It looks really summery. Erin Wasson's collection? I can't really think of any way to describe it, so I'm quoting tFS user papa_levante who said "Erin has abused her right to use any more denim. Ever again." I totally agree. What on earth was she thinking when she came up with this hideous denim romper...thing. Although I'm willing for these styles to just go away - I will bet anything that, come next summer, this stuff will be everywhere. At least it has comedic value.


I bought a MAC concealer today - Studio Finish SPF 35 in NC15 (I told you I was pale!). I have been looking for a good concealer for an incredibly long time and when the make-up technician applied this one, I knew I'd found it! It blends perfectly with my skin and covers a lot with only a little product. I also bought a brush to go with it since my last concealer brush was very poor quality. I was very happy with my little shopping trip, I bought three new tops from H&M - one navy, one charcoal and one nude - and got photos taken for my provisional driving license. A word of advice, if you live in the South of England, stay off the roads!!

Until next time xo
