Wow, long time no blog, I'm sorry! Real life (aka a mountain of Uni work) has caught up with me a little recently, and I've had a rather busy week. On Wednesday, my mum and I made a spontaneous trip to
London Zoo, in view of how gorgeous the weather was. We had a lovely time, and I managed to take some amazing photos which I'll hopefully post quite soon. Then, on Thursday, my best friend
Sarah and I were invited along to the
h.prlondon press day in Piccadilly. It seemed very strange to be looking at samples of Autumn/Winter 2011 collections when it was swelteringly hot outside, but some of the pieces, from designers including
Paul & Joe,
tba and
Nougat were just beautiful.

Beautiful printed dress from Nougat. |
|
Lovely nightwear from a brand I forgot to note down (doh!) |
|
Flowery knickers by Ell and Cee Bride, launching soon! |
|
Jumpsuit by Ell and Cee. |
|
Scalloped-edge top, Borne by Elise Berger. |
|
Paul & Joe! |
|
Paul & Joe's collection for next season encapsulated a very 70's feel, I especially loved the prints. |
|
tba's offering for A/W11 featured more trademark peter pan collars. |
|
The collection also featured monochrome touches... |
|
...and cute bow detailing. |
|
My standout piece from tba was this beautiful powder blue dress with collar and pocket detail. |
|
A stunning lace dress by Nicole Murray. |
|
Jacey Withers' quirky jewellery collection... |
|
...this owl necklace was another one of my favourites. |
|
Cake pops! |
Then, in need of sustenance after being immersed in next season's fashion, we headed over to
Bea's of Bloomsbury in Holborn for a spot of late afternoon tea:
All in all, a lovely day!
Are you impressed by what you've seen for A/W11 so far? And what have you been getting up to in the sunshine?
