Hi! I hope you enjoyed the guest posts, thank you to everyone who did them, they were awesome!
I kind of missed fashion week, I know everyone is on about the Oscars and the amazing outfits there but, who cares if I do fashion week, a week late!
Anyway, what I've done is created an outfit based around some designers collections and I've made a few predictions of trends that will be big this year too. One I couldn't do an outfit for was fringe. It's going to be really big this year. There was a gorgeous piece in Tom Fords collection, I tried to recreate it but, my brown fringe bag didn't morph into a fringed dress.:( Ok here they are!

I'm in love with Simone Rocha's collection! There are so many classic cuts in her designs! I fell for the picture on the right and had to recreate it. Shes managed to combine modern minalism and classic retro cuts
in the same collection. In collections such as Orla Kiely and Louise Grey, I have noticed 60's cuts too, I love the looks so I'm glad that it could be a trend this year.
LOOK 1: cardigan Holister, dress Topshop, shoes New Look
LOOK 2: coat Topshop, dress H&M, shoes New Look
I stated noticing kimino's and patterns inspired by Asia late last year. I love my kimino, it's so comfertable and is an easy option to wearing a blazer which can look harsh with some tops. The pattern in Emilia Pucci's kimino to the right use amazing colours which I can imagine wearing myself!
LOOK 1+2: H&M!
There were lots of stripes in the Marc Jacobs collection so, I loved how the black and white contrast was encorperated whilst still using the stripes. Black and white are always a classic and never really go out of date! It's always good to have some black and white contrast in your wardrobe, and this year I suspect that it will be big.
LOOK: top+leggings H&M, scarf+belt Zara
Finally, the suit! The majority of designers had something tailored in their collection so bring the blazer back out! I love Mary Katrantzou's blue suit, shes combinded her amazing patterns with two trends which will be big this year, colour pop and the taliored look!
LOOK: blazer Johnnie B, leggings F&F, dress H&M
