I've never perceived London as a city of fashion and my feelings prove to be true every time I look at fashion week collections. I've been THE biggest fan of Burberry for so long, but since two years ago the collections just aren't as good as before. I feel like they've lost that feminine vibe and are somehow missing a common thread.

But let's talk about the ones that stood out. Actually, there was only one for me and that's Alexander McQueen. Its collection was just ah-mazing! I was blown away by the sensitive wibe that felt like a fairytale. Long sheer capes with sprinkled stardust gave the illusion of a night sky and butterfly prints on a lacey cut-out dresses transformed models into sexy fairies. I also loved the mix and match of a delicate lace and rocker chic leather, which is a go-to combination for 50% good/50% bad girls ;)

Now tell me, how did you like McQueen? Or was there any other designer that stood out? I can't wait to hear your thoughts! :)

Fashion month is in a ful run! NYFW and LFW are over and it's time to do a recap of all the amazing collections that we've seen (unfortunatelly not from the frow, but looking at images on Vogue.com also counts, right?). Let me tell you how happy I am to see that fashion trends are finally turning from formless boyish silhouettes to delicate feminine shapes. All that lace and sheer fabric is just a feast for my eyes. I was literally sighing at all the playful girly dresses, which are exactly my kind of style!

So to review the collections, I have to say that I was quite dissapointed with Diane Von Furstenberg and Zimmerman, who totally impressed me last year, but didn't offer anything new this season. Who surprised me the most was Carolina Herrera with her ah-mazing collection of soft pastels and light fabrics. There were also some exquisite pieces at Red Valentino, Marchesa and Michael Kors fashion shows, which is actually no surprise, since they tend to impress me every year. Oh, and I'm happy that Christopher Bailey's back on track! As much as I didn't like Burberry Prorsum's last year's collection, I am obsessed with this season's pieces. From sheer polka dot dresses and sporty backpacks to net-lace skirts, paired with bomber jackets, there's really nothing not to like!

Take a look at some of my favourite looks and let me know which ones are YOUR favourite!

Another fashion month has ended and left us with cravings and bunch of new items on our wishlist. Even though I didn't attend any of the FWs, I feel like I was there thanks to Snapchat and Instagram. It's amazing how social media can make you feel like a part of something even though you're miles away.. 

 

Appart of the amazing street-style looks, that these days attract more attention than the actual shows, some of the collections were quite amazing.. to say at least. Dolce & Gabbana left me speechless and Karl Lagerfeld has showed once again that Chanel isn't only about the clothes, but it's important to tell the whole story. Of course other designers showed their originality too. Just take a look at Saint Laurent's edgy makeup or Givenchy's striking face ornaments! Seems like creativity of these designers has no limits and they proved once again that they belong to the very top of the fashion industry. Here are the looks of my favourite collections. Which are yours?
