Check out the best looks from London Fashion Week Autumn Winter 2018 to feel inspired on finding your next outfit.

BRITISH SUPERMODEL KATE MOSS DEBUT’S NEW CAPSULE COLLECTION FOR HIGH STREET RETAIL GIANT RESERVED CLOTHING

The Celebrity Fashion Collaboration everybody is talking about on the British High Street makes its 1st debut in London for its official store opening and launch this Fall

#ReservedForMe #ReservedForUs

Today I had a very early start as I made my way into central London to celebrate the new launch of Kate Moss’s exclusive clothing range in collaboration with High Street Polish Retailer Reserved. I have been looking forward to this all week which was very exciting to attend an event like this on a large scale when a new brand gets introduced to the UK High Street.

Also I do like discovering new brands too to include to my everyday style staples in my closet as we are now in September when the weather transitions into autumn and before long it gets colder again during Winter.

Reserved Clothing

The Brands clothing range lucky for me includes Menswear too, but the focus today was primarily around the Women’s range designed by Kate Moss for Reserved Clothing.

I do admire the brands aesthetic as it appeals to me being very minimal and contemporary with a premium feel to it. Observing the apparel pieces in terms of quality would be similar to the price range of Zara for Trend pieces.

“Meant to be worn Made to be liked”

There was a great atmosphere in store today surrounding all the buzz and publicity about the brand and promoting Kate Moss’ new line to the masses proved very popular amongst fashion fans and loyal followers of the Reserved Clothing label.

What do you think about it so far, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the new range of ready to wear pieces for both Men & Women. In my opinion personal favourites will have to be tailored pieces such as the Blazers which is the most versatile staple you can wear with anything to dress up or create a smart casual outfit.

Reserved Clothing

Rocker Dandy inspired pieces include signature leather jackets for Menswear for a polished outfit.

For the launch today I decided to wear a monochrome look which is simple but yet still understated to make a style statement and still look polished was exactly the look I was going for to capture the moment.

The onsite photo booth was quite fun to snap photo’s for social media so you could create a giff video clip to add to your social media on instagram which is always good to promote the brand and show support for their outreach campaign.

I really enjoyed today and it was also nice to see familiar faces and fellow Bloggers to catch up and celebrate the launch together.It’s was such an honour to attend the event with a personal invite from the in-house PR in Warsaw to come along and celebrate this special occasion in the presence of Style Icon Kate Moss. The Press and Style Influencer’s were in full force to attend this soiree celebration for Supermodel Kate Moss with guest DJ’Set from Mollie King ‘The Saturdays’, Model and Presenter Laura Whitmore to warm up the crowd. We took to the Reserved Rooftop for sumptuous cocktails and canapés for some chill time to mingle with familiar faces and be in the presence of our favourite British Style Icon was a great event overall.

LONDON FASHION WEEK MEN’S STYLE DIARY: WHAT I WORE TO JOHN SMEDLEY SS 18 SHOW

By Posted on 0 Comments Location: 2min read1012 views

What a lovely day it is today to watch a Fashion Show outdoors in the open air St James location on Jermyn Street and really looking forward to watch the John Smedley Menswear collection preview. Today’s venue is a unique installation outside from the usual indoor venue set up – something different this season is always a good thing thing to experience a change of scenery and atmosphere.

This season I think I was well prepared and had a fair idea what I was going to wear for Day 2 at London Fashion Week Men’s. Let’s start with a pair of sunglasses as these always come in handy if you want to conceal those tired looking eyes from the night before. Get my point. Anyway, I had just made my way into town with plenty of time to have a slight snack and a caramel latte as I cant stress enough that you must eat because you’ll need all the energy you can get during a long day.

London Fashion Week Style

With glorious summer weather again today it seemed appropriate to dress in a white t-shirt again and dark skinny jeans again. I throw on my signature light leather jacket and hey presto the look created, is it more ‘James Dean or Jason Priestly from Beverly Hills 90210. I felt great in it ‘Carpe Diem’ I think the photo speaks for itself with some side action for the cameras is my favourite Street Style shot would you say. What do you think of this look – it’s perfect to dash in between the shows and its really comfortable but looks understated with just one signature item that’s the leather jacket is all you need to dress up a semi casual outfit.

ASOS MENSWEAR SUMMER PARTY

It’s been quite a long afternoon of shows today but the best news is the Sun is still shinning as we leave the Ben Sherman show and decide to head over next to the ASOS Menswear Presentation at the AQUA London Rooftop. It’s got a really great terrace on the roof and it was just the perfect setting to view their latest Spring Summer 2018 collection.

ASOS is one of my first port of call for online shopping if I’m looking for a seasonable trend piece to mix and match with outfits and great for weekend basics too. At the Spring Summer 2018 preview I noticed that there were on trend retro pieces being re-worked from the 90’s .Who could forget those cross over bags or I believe the correct or old term was referred to as a ‘Bumbag’.  Accessories such as classic white sunglasses always remind me of summer or Nineteen 50’s Hollywood which I think I’ve got a pair quite similar are just perfect for sunny days at the pool.

Asos

I think these would go nicely with one of the racer checker printed bags as I’m keen to have a browse while I’m here. You know I just can’t help myself to window shop. Anyway, perhaps there is something I could get for my upcoming press trip to Portugal as most of the influencers I know will be going. But more on that later, so be sure to check for updates on the blog about my travels this summer it’s going to be supper fun.

That feeling of summer to me always evokes that spark of hedonism and adventure and these pieces from the ASOS Menswear line are ideal for headlining this summer’s music festivals in style or holidays you need on trend pieces of clothing to make things more fun don’t you think. From the looks of the colour palate the clothes really stood out for me as striking, youthful, fun and vibrant in neon shade’s which is very nineties right now.

I’m just hoping that someone has a ‘Fresh Prince of Bel Air themed Party’ because I quite like the idea getting my hands on some new statement pieces before my holiday vacation commences.  All I need to do now is choose what I want for my forthcoming trip and just pack. I guess, I’ll see you guys by the pool!

I just happen to be thinking about a upcoming Wedding invitation in the diary to social events on the British Sporting Calendar. Chester Barrie would be a great place to start feeling inspired for the summer months ahead don’t you agree.  I’m in the mood for a bit of tennis too given by the looks of the models posing with old school tennis rackets summer is here to stay. The range would be perfect for watching the Boodles Tennis or even Wimbledon would be the ideal summer situation.

In case you’re wondering what you should wear it’s best to be overdressed than under-dressed as my wedding guest invite does not specifically state the official dress code. So, which leaves me to get clued up on dress codes before the events I have secured invites to this summer.

For inspiration, I have a few options in mind to ensure you nail that look. Take style cues from Chester Barrie suits on how to look your best will ensure you suit up sharp on the day. Always assume finding the perfect suit is vital as the Chester Barrie collection comes in a range of tailored fits and classic styles which are contemporary to make the right impression anywhere.

OFF-WHITE x LIL SILVA HOST SECRET DJ SET IN EAST LONDON

FASHION & MUSIC COME TOGETHER FOR ONE NIGHT WITH HEADLINE DJ SET BY VIRGIL ABLOH & FRIEND

OFF-WHITE

We saunted down to East London in Shoreditch for the OFF White x Lil Silva fashion label launch party as Designer Virgil Abloh showcased his musical talent as host DJ for the night. The venue discreetly hidden amidst the edge of a high rise tower block gave it that edge and street cred as press and fans of the label enjoyed a private DJ set by designer Virgil Abloh. The label collaborated with musician Lil Silva to celebrate the capsule collection of new t-shirt clothing. He’s also a great friend of Kanye West and was brought up in New York where his key influences came from street wear.

From an early age he began to discover and develop his own unique sense of style which later brought him to set up his own label and Abloh styles everything himself for his shows during fashion week. I can finally see where the fusion of music and fashion overlaps where its not just about fashion anymore it’s a lifestyle that comes with it to form a unique brand identity is relatable to popular culture.

OFF-WHITE

I cant wait to find out more. It was my first encounter from the fashion label as a friend of mine from a Record Label introduced me to the concept which is great to step outside of mainstream fashion and look towards fresh ideas and creativity. The music that night was just as amazing as the clothes that came down the runways of Paris and New York. I even downloaded the catwalk soundtrack from one of the shows to my playlist.
