MeetMyRedOnRed

...Occasion...
A creative day at uni

...Situation...
Dressing to compliment my new hair cut & colour




...Black & White check wool scarf - Oxfam *latest buy*...
...White waterfall collar shirt with black polkadots - Vintage...
...Long red coat - Vintage, Oldham St, Manchester *perfect for autumn* [originally from Eastex]...
...Wet look jeans - River Island...
...Ankle boots - New Look Limited Editions...

Some would never dye their hair a bold shade because they claim they would have to alter their whole wardrobe. Well I say embrace the colour! Out with the old & in with the bold! Your wardrobe hasn't got to alter, but if your concerned about the clashing you just might have to alter your styling around it until you get used to what looks you prefer! Red is my favourite [bet you would have never guessed!] so I paired my new sleek fringe with my striking new autumnal coat to embrace & make to most of the new season.

MeetMyMenswear

...Occasion...
Arena HOMME+ 20th Anniversary celebration event featuring Stone at Flannels, Spinningfields, Manchester

...Situation...
Dressing for an urban evening event, while showing off my new 'do!

Menswear is technical & practical...but why can't it be fashionable as well? Well Arena HOMME+ magazine combined with the raw fashion wear-ability of Stone Island clothing all in one room was that perfect concoction. In a testosterone filled top floor, fuelled by beer & DJ tunes, a select 50 people were chosen to privately roam the collections to celebrate the magazine's 20th year in publication. Expressing both brands particular eye for detail, we enjoyed admiring Stone Island's Arctic outerwear & HOMMEplus's outlook on life: 
ALL KILLER NO FILLER.




...The waxed leather caught our fashion eye so much we even had a little pocket feel...





...Seasonal hair - Vidal Sassoon...
...Black & white check wool scarf - Oxfam *latest buy*...

With an eye for future fashion, while still appealing to what is currently trending & pushing the boundaries, the talent brimmed Central St Martens showcased their recent graduates in the atmospheric Freemasons Hall. Combining silicone structures with knitted panels and prominent pleats with popping hues, it is crystal why these up&coming designers stole the spotlight.

MeetMyLFW

...Edeline Lee...
A presentation in the vacant basement of Kings College, in the space underneath Somerset house, was the perfect atmosphere for Edeline Lee's S/S'14 collection. Long silhouettes & strong lines in neutrals with flashes of vibrant hues were viewed from room to room, walking anti-clockwise through crowded corridors overflowing with eerie notes of a nursery rhyme singer...
