LFW Day 4; Somerset House

I’m late, I’m late for
A very important date.
No time to say hello, good-bye
I’m late, I’m late, I’m late
– Alice in Wonderland

Watched Alice in Wonderland 3D today, can’t say I loved it, but I did come out of the cinema feeling more mad (the crazy sort) than ever… so much that I had this sudden urge to throw the Peri-Peri sauce at someone’s head when they’d asked me to pass it down during dinner... I blame Depp. You should ask my boyfriend how long it took to get me to stop adding Savvy? to the end of each sentence in 2003.

Please bear with me on these piles of LFW posts, I know it’s not the nature of this blog to post anything other than me myself and moi, but I wouldn’t post them unless I think it’s something worth sharing. And aren’t you sick of me already?

Jersey Jacket – Gift (Unknown), Lace top – COS, Blouse – Silence & Noise, Belt, bag – Vintage, Pants – Topshop, Boots – Zara, Necklace – DIY.

Just a quickie before I nap into oblivion and accidentally wake up next morning; this was outfit for day 4! Alrighty, bed is calling and I don’t want it to switch onto voicemail, goodni..day.

Thank you Jill of Streetstyle London for snapping these for me!

Piece of Cowskin from Spitafields Market, Lace top – COS, Blouse – Silence & Noise

Other than the fact that I had to look up how to use an eyelet puncher to realize I’ve been using a completely wrong tool this DIY should take you roughly 10 minutes. I had a piece of cow skin I bought at Spitafields Market lying around and some broken F21 jewellery. Punched two eyelet holes at the ends, chained it up, took apart the broken jewellery and glued it on using a gluegun. Piece of cake! Or should I say, piece of cow? (ha.ha…)

Jasper Garvida

Towering heels, lavish sequin embellishments and geometric cuts – Jasper’s AW10 screamed Art Deco and vintage Hollywood. Contrary to last season’s multicoloured, multi-textured and what I personally thought was a rather confused theme, this season’s golden thread through the collection was more than apparent. The show started with tipped-bowler hats and a flirtatious atmosphere by half-prancing models; gold zippers on forest greens evolved to scales of sequins and a more romantic colour palette. Jasper’s love for sequins was epitomized by the last dress, where champagne-coloured fabric squares were applied like sequins, an excellent finale to the collection.

I’m finding myself in a rather unique situation here with Jasper Garvida! For the past 3 seasons I’ve been so kindly invited by Forever Better of Miele for various events around Jasper, some of you may remember the Fashion Weekend collaboration, ON|OFF presentation from 2009. I feel that I’ve unintentionally been given a position where I can closely witness the growth of a designer from the beginning of his career, which I’m truly thankful for. Thank you Miele for the invitation, the wondrous front-row seats, and a great time with new and familiar blogger faces!
