Word On The Street.

This season is bursting with street flavour and  trendy sportswear making the gym a fashion accessory ,so it comes as no surprise to see logo tees and shouty slogans hitting the mainstream. Word to the wise: leave head-to-toe lettering to billboards and body art; a single, subtle message whispers good taste now.
As we are no strangers to logo tees after last season, I have to admit myself I was not a fan of the ‘dope and dweeb’ tees that were sported on the high street, but I think topshop has my heart with the new subtle prints.

Two Of My Favourite Things: Kate Moss & Topshop



Two of my favourite things are coming together once again and I couldn’t be more excited about it, kate moss world wild known supermodel will be on the may issue of Vogue along with Freja Beha Erichsen.

Topshops answer to Chanel Spring/Summer Couture: Paris

The Chanel Sprint/Summer Paris Couture show is the gold standard of fashion excess: icebergs, forests, the world after the world has ended…nothing is too much for Karl Lagerfeld.











The official Chanel website features behind the scenes footage and designs as well as interviews with Karl himself. It can be found here




Karl Lagerfelds exceptional Chanel couture collection embodied the concept of the “incredible lightness of being” in poetically handwoven cloth, and embroideries as light and magical as thistledown.

The clothes had a uniquely modern feeling as each look was matched with a pair of flat sneakers (made by the custom shoemaker Massaro, naturally) in patchworks of fabrics and embroidery—“It gives it a different attitude,” explained Karl—and during the show, the girls were encouraged to run and skip down the grand horseshoe staircase, suggesting something of the sense of liberating freedom that was Coco Chanel’s great contribution to early-twentieth-century fashion. This is a lot different from the tight restricting dresses and heels his girls are used to wearing making it only possible to elegantly glide across the cat walk, this look gave the models chance to experiment with their own walking techniques and feel free while doing so, this collection has a glimpse of purity with a sparkle.

The palette was pale and iridescent very spring summer—tweeds threaded with metallic,with a dash of sorbet pastels.

There was then no surprise when Topshop brought out their own answer to the couture collection, consisting of similar sorbet colours and sparkle, below are the examples, I will do a polyvore post to follow.
