All Saints Herringbone Coat At Bristol Fashion Week

All Saints Grey Coat With Skinny Jeans at Bristol Fashion Week This outfit is a little old as it’s the one that I wore to the Bristol Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015 show about a month ago, but I hadn’t gotten around to posting it yet. Bristol Fashion Week is one of my favourite events as it’s really fun to see the other fashion bloggers and watch the models dance down the runway instead of just walk. This season it was hosted by Lucy Watson from Made in Chelsea and Mark Heyes, the famous stylist. Usually we see Andrew Barton take the stage with Mark, but it was a nice change. For my outfit, I wore my All Saints Lorie Tula Coat in Grey (buy it here in the sale and get an extra 20% off with the code EXTRA20) with my Citizens of Humanity Rocket Crop Jeans in Aura and my Topshop Peplum Top in Burgundy. I thought it would make a nice mix of colours and dimensions, pairing together the different hues and fits. I finished it with my Rebecca Minkoff Love Cross Body Bag in Denim (buy it here) and my Carvela Burgundy Booties. Overall, I think this is a look that I can definitely see being something that I gravitate towards more often. I’m really intro structured coats that have a really slim fit so they don’t overwhelm my frame, I think they pair nicely with skinny jeans and heels or boots. I actually loved this one so much that I just bought it in beige too, with the sale discount, so I couldn’t be happier to…

Bristol Fashion Week SS13 Bloggers Event

On Friday I was invited to Bristol Fashion Week for their Spring/Summer 2013 collection and fashion bloggers event. This was my third time attending BFW and I have to say it was also my favourite! The ending with Gangnam Style and some of the pretty outfits were perfect! I loved the florals and neon trends the most though and BFW is always so much fun! The models are also dancers so the runway show is very entertaining, you never once get bored! Andrew Barton and Mark Heyes are also the perfect hosts! They are hilarious and just know how to put on a great show! This time around I got to meet some more bloggers and stay longer at the mall to chat with some of them and have some food. I am glad I got to meet my friend Tara again as we chat often via social media and email, she’s so sweet! I have included lots of photos in this post of the show, some of the other bloggers and of course, my outfit! I was wearing my Frankie B. Galaxy Jeans, my Zara Black Top and Navy Blazer, my KG by Kurt Geiger Winona Booties and my Forever 21 Bag. Some of these images are from Bonnie Rose as she makes great collages, she even did this wonderful feature on me which you can see here and some are from Vicki Louise, she has great editing skills and you can see her post here. The others are my own and a few of the official shots are from The Mall at Cribbs Causeway where Bristol Fashion Week…

My Outfit At Bristol Fashion Week

(Jeans – Exact, Blazer – Exact, T-Shirt – Exact, Bag – Exact, Scarf – Similar, Boots – Similar, Watch – Exact) Finally here is my post from Bristol Fashion Week that I attended on Friday 28th September 2012 at The Mall at Cribbs Causeway. I finally met Tara from The Style Rawr below who I know via Twitter. It was great to actually meet her in person after corresponding online for so long and I also loved seeing so many other bloggers too! Seeing their different styles and actually meeting someone who has the same job as me, since blogging is not a hugely popular line of work, was really cool. The fashion show was hosted by Andrew Barton and Mark Heyes again and was so much fun! Andrew and Mark are amazing together and really know how to entertain! They also added a new scene into the show featuring lingerie from Ann Summers! This was actually one of my favourite scenes (I’m sure it will also be yours David!) because everything was so flattering and pretty at the same time as being sexy. There was also a male model who was eyeing up so many girls in the front row and winking at them, he really knows how to get the girls interested lol! I was wearing my Paige Skyline Leaf Print Jeans, a Topshop Black Blazer and Burgundy Scarf, a Forever 21 T-Shirt, my River Island Black Wedge Boots, my new Mulberry Mini Taylor in Sycamore, my Marc by Marc Jacobs Rose Gold Blade Chrono Watch and various different Bracelets. You can see photos within this post from…

Ombre Denim & Leopard At Bristol Fashion Week

I promised you photos of my outfit when I attended the Live Bloggers show at The Mall during Bristol Fashion Week, and here they are. If you missed my post on the show with catwalk photos, you can see it here. I went down the route of mixing my leopard print jeans with my ombre denim shirt and I quite like how the combination turned out. The scenery outside is also amazing! I love the water fountains and sculptures. I’m wearing my River Island ombre men’s denim shirt, my Current/Elliott grey leopard jeans, my Urban Outfitters wedges, my ASOS blue satchel and a Topshop lilac tank top and blue rainbow ring. I’ve also included some photos of what it was like inside The Mall too, with the beauty stations and pretty palm trees. I think it’s beautiful! Overall though I had a great time and I can’t wait to go during the next Fashion Week! If you are in the area, I would definitely recommend it to you! So what do you think of my outfit? I hope you all had a wonderful Easter yesterday! (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)

Live Bloggers Event At Bristol Fashion Week

Those of you who follow me on Twitter will know that I was tweeting on Friday from the live fashion bloggers event at The Mall at Cribbs Causeway for Bristol Fashion Week. I had an amazing time! I was third row from the front and I loved the collections that were shown! My favourites were the pastels that looked like candy (above photo), the ocean theme with the jellyfish in the background and the Paris theme with the florals. It was so much fun! Definitely more fun than a normal fashion show! It lasted an hour and there were dance routines as well. Andrew Barton and Mark Heyes presented the show and spoke between each scene. I think Andrew looked great, he wore a polka dot blazer, cuffed chinos and boat shoes. I loved his outfit! Mark and Andrew together are actually hilarious too! So funny! You can see all of the photos from the show in this blog post. Due to the lighting though, some are not as great as they could be. I’ve used some official photos courtesy of Bristol Fashion Week at The Mall at Cribbs Causeway and a mixture of my own too. You can sort of see a sneak preview of my outfit that I wore, but since this post is already really long, you will have to wait for a separate outfit blog post. Did anyone else attend any of the Bristol Fashion Week shows? (Follow me on Twitter, Bloglovin and Facebook)
