London Fashion Week Favorites So Far

By -
Christopher Kane's dinosaur inspired show was a blast. He used 3D semicircles with enough variety that I could see some of these dresses on fashion mavericks like Chloe Sevigny or more demure yet fun starlets like Natalie Portman. I like the color palette of black, nude, pale pink and yellow, and bright orange.Giles Decon's show was inspired by graphic artists from the 1980s, but his silhouettes were overwhelmingly classic trapeze and even some rather 1950s Dior sex bomb. What makes them distinctly Giles were the prints -- a huge face here, metallic camouflage there, a bit of smuged polka dot. Also running through the show were ruffles of feathers or chiffon. Yes, yes, yes! to the dramatic winged eyes.Aquascutum's runway was blue and simply feminine. Overall, the lines were clean with a bit of ruffled flair. This isn't a label I've really paid attention to in the past, but consider me alerted.

The hues of blue here are outstanding. I think my favorite look is the lace city shorts, which I didn't even know existed, with the blue tie belt. I love these.

What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
