London Fashion Week: Recap & some favorites

I like going against the fashion wave a little, so now that it's all over, I have, as it is my habit, decided to look over some of my favourite looks from two weeks ago. Well, to be frank, I stumbled upon these yesterday and realised that I hadn't even mentioned them.

First the men: I'm a big fan of this, I've been educating myself on male clothing for a while now and I will eventually know how to dress a man. The plan is, I want to be able to dress my boyfriend in the most correct and elegant fashion- should I want to. For years this is something that has haunted me, because I had no idea about guy fashion until a few months ago, and how can I persuade men to wear what I want them to wear if I can't trust my own choices...?

Personally, I like a lived-in rock look, even more than for women. If my guy showed up with brand new pristine clothes from Savile Row matched so chastily I would leave him. But for the sake of research...

I'm really into this one. Only he needs long hair

Knit over satin? YES PLEASE.

And I promised myself I would post pictures of this catwalk, because I loved the BLUE. And the movement was amazing, no way to see that in photos.

I've just realised I drank champagne with Ana Beatriz Barros and didn't even recognise her in that outfit. Considering that I've been a huge fan since her days at Replay (what, 12 years ago?) and she is a big deal for me, it is unforgiveable.

The above pictures were from Issa.

I like these from Matthew Williamson:

(except, I think platform courts are over, no matter what spring 2012 trends tell me)

And this is so very me. Again, this COBALT!

Temperley that was mindblowing as always. Hello Marlene Dietrich:

Can always do with a beaded lace jumpsuit

And this is my favourite shade of white. Un crudo lechoso.
