London Fashion Week AW 2012...Irina


Model, songwriter and musician, Irina Lazareanu, London, February 2012.

Have you seen the beautiful Aubin &Wills film starring Irina and Alex James? So beautiful (it looks very much like it was filmed on Super 8mm). You can find it here.

Recreate Irina's Look (kind of):

J Brand 901 waxed legging jeans or Rag & Bone/Jean The Legging Jean (in Shoreditch)

Charlotte Olympia metallic platform suede pump or a little higher, a little more gold, Charlotte Olympia mirror-platform slingback 

London Fashion Week AW 2012...Codie


Aussie model Codie Young, after Erdem, London, February 2012.

I really liked the simple make-up and hair at Erdem (in fact I always love the beauty at Erdem) - a tiny flick of eyeliner on the crease of the eyelid and ponytail tied with a sliver of jet black ribbon. So pretty with Codie's newly dyed red hair.
Recreate Codie's Look (kind of):
Alexander McQueen skull-print scarf  (in black and pale green) or black and white or Tilly's skull print scarf (a little more budget friendly)

New York Fashion Week AW 2012...Margaret

Another girl whose style I am obsessing over is Aussie beauty Margaret Zhang, Editor of Shine by Three blog and commerce/law student.

I adore the simple white column dress (white dresses like this remind me a little of Carolyn Bessette Kennedy's  Narciso Rodriguez wedding dress) teamed with the blazer and beaded scarf necklace. Simple, elegant and beautiful.

Recreate Margaret's Look (kind of):

BCBGMAXAZRIA white T-back dress (love three four things about this dress: it skims rather than hugs the body, it isn't too "bridal" nor beachy, it isn't just for after-dark, and it has an interesting back - perfect for showing off sun-kissed skin).

Roarke coralline scarf necklace  (from Anthropologie US). I also love the peter pan collar necklaces from Dannijo this season - an easy way to update a simple outfit, and achieve a similar look to the scarf necklace. Dannijo Hixson collar necklace or Dannijo bronze chain link peter pan collar both investment pieces which would last for years.

And then just add a punchy coloured blazer of your choice (with sleeves rolled up of course!). Try Elizabeth and James Spring Jim blazer in tiger lily or Rag & Bone 42nd Street blazer in turquoise.

New York Fashion Week AW 2012

Love these two girls....I kept bumping into them together (and neglected to get their names).

Love the masculine suiting on the girl on the right and the cropped length of her trousers. And how happy and fun are her socks/tights?
