I'm back from a lovely birthday vacation on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands and am finally getting around to posting my outfits of the day from London Fashion Week. My first outfit was taken from the website thefashinist.se and was photographed by Swedish street fashion photographer Fosco Giulianelli. I wore this outfit backstage to the Belle Sauvage SS12 show at the Old Sorting Office.


I knew I wanted to wear the suede boots I was given last spring by Korean designer Jung Du Young after I walked for his VanHart Homme FW2011 collection. I picked up the grey trousers when I went shopping with my friend Paula (aka Noonablog) at Behave near Brick Lane in east London a few weeks ago and thought they paired nicely to create a sort of riding look.



I wore a lot of accessories with this look. The belt is a vintage find from Canada which I love for its stripes. I bought the clutch from Urban Outfitters when I first visited London last Christmas and wore it with one of my favorite outfits of the day HERE when Burger and I went all touristy near the Tower Bridge. The Cazal sunglasses are from Burger's extensive collection.



I made the non-watch out of vintage watch parts that I thrifted at an antiques market - sort of as an anti time statement since who really needs a watch nowadays when you have a phone in your pocket all day? I've made a few of these and sold them on our Burger & Fries boutique on ASOS Marketplace. They have been a hot seller are all sold out at the moment, but I'm sure I'll be uploading more in the next few weeks.

belle sauvage ss2012

I had such a heart on for the Belle Sauvage spring/summer 2012 collection - their edgy silhouettes and loud digital prints are right up my ally and I knew getting backstage access would lead to some fun photographs. The dresses from this power design couple were all form fitting, many with high collars in either short with peaked shoulders or long and sleeveless. Lots of pleating details and a color palette of lavender, bright yellow, mint green and a bold red kept your eyes busy, especially when combined with their amazing hallucinogenic prints. Every look was styled with a fresh pair of bright white high heeled brogues and the plastic head shields and hats worn by many of the models must have been how people in the 60's probably imagined future flight attendants to look like. The finger wave curls, bold red lips and bright blue eye shadow were perfect touches to a very intense show.
