Mish Mash

Hey lovelies :) I'm sorry for not posting I know inconsistency is bad but I'll be better! I've just had induction week at a fashion academy so I've been quite busy! I officially start lessons next week which I can't wait for. I've wanted to study fashion retail management for a long time now and right now I feel like my future is set. Well obviously it depends on me working hard and going for it but I'm on the right path! :) 

Some things I'm loving right now:
Lace Back Waistcoat from Topshop. £45. I tried this on and it looks LOVELY! Gorgeous material and lace detail at the back. And it shows off your curves perfectly as it's singed at the waist with the ribbon. Perfect staple to have in your wardrobe for any occasion.

Burgundy velvet leggings from Topshop. £22. Makes a great pant :) very unique. I'd constantly be touching my leg though :( i love touching nice-feely things.

The winner of the High Street Fashion Awards 2010 "best value for money" is H&M. I think that is well deserved :). I've talked way too much about H&M recently. Must stop. Wait but can I just show you this lovely H&M dress please :) i love the print. I also say the words "I love" too much as well. What other words can I use.. my vocabulary range is big I promise :) I just love things very easily.
only £29.99!
Did any of you hear about London Vogue's Fashion Night Out that happened last week? I went and tbh I was very dissapointed. I'm not sure if NYC & Milan FNO was the same (pff probably not!) but London's was dissapointing. There should have been more publicity on Oxford Street for starters. Hardly anyone knew what was going on. Plenty of stores & brands participated saying they would have a DJ pumping music in the stores, providing free drinks, bringing out their new collections for us to buy first! All this hype was for nothing because even though a lot of the stores did do as they said and had free drinks and djs... the djs weren't that good, and there wasn't that buzz that you would expect since it is all sponsored by VOGUE! It happened on a Wednesday and let's just say a normal Saturday night was a lot busier. 
Thanks for the free alcohol though, Vogue! ;) and I didn't visit the Chanel store but I heard they had there Khaki range out for people to purchase one off! I wonder when it's out offcially.
Anyways, from the 17th onwards is London Fashion Week. I'm very excited to see what stores have in store for us. Especially Topshop. Are any of you planning on going? I'm sure it will be a lot better than FNO.

Have a lovely weekend guys! :) see you in a few days. I'll fill you in on my first day of fashion academy!
