Front row at Luella Spring 2010

Anna Wintour looking amazing in a python skin coat front row at Luella's spring show. Anna was also spotted sitting next to Alexa Chung at the Twenty8Twelve show, hands up who thinks Alexa will be the next American Vogue cover girl. Guess the rumours were true about Anna appearing at the front row at London fashion week, I wonder where else will turn up.

I couldn't do a fashion week front row post without putting Peaches Geldof in, she's everywhere at fashion week. However, I refuse to feature her sister Pixie Geldof on this blog until she sorts her hair out. Here Peaches Geldof wears a Luella dress that I'm sure I saw on Zooey Deschanel at some music awards show, possibly the Grammy's.

Alexa normally looks better than this at the front row so I'm a little disappointed and nearly didn't put her in the post, but she looks cute so I'll look past this slight down grade in style. Plus I love the Chanel bag.

Is X factor winner Alexandra Burke after some publicity by showing her face at London Fashion Week? If she is she'll have to try harder because, although I love the Luella Tweed jacket, I'm sure her or her stylist could find a better way of presenting than the way she's dressed now.

Luella S/S10

Ive said it before. Luella Bartley does not fail at impressing me collection after collection. Yesterday was no different I still found the collection beautiful and found something I would personally wear each time a model strode past.
This season, Luella seems to have focused more on shapes whereas in past seasons there were lost of frills and bows. The fabric is very different too, emphasis has really been put on the structure of the piece, note the 50's style dresses with exaggerated hips. There were a lot of pastel colours used as well to brighten up the collection.

I am really pleased with the spring/summer collections so far there hasn't been any nautical references, although Luella showed some polka dots in her collection, but I think that comes up in Autumn as well as Spring. Besides I like polka dots, and I also like bows (see first image)

Nasty Gal Vintage

I was introduced to Shopnastygal.com by a whowhatwear.com post and have been hooked ever since. The selection of vintage and new finds are amazing and there really is something in that online store for everyone. Even if its just tights. On Thursday I got a message from Nasty Gal telling me they had a new load of amazing designer goodies. I took a look and the stuff is gorgeous. I urge you all to look. I picked out some of my favourite pieces, and some vintage dresses reminiscent of whats just been shown by current designers. So... take a look.

The dress to the left is 1970s Givenchy and I love love it, if I could buy it I would... but its not cheap, on my budget anyway. It's $1,200 so if you can afford, I'm highly jealous of you but I wish you well. There is only one dress and I'm very interested to see how long it will stay on the market. On the one hand its beautiful but on the other we are in the middle of a worldwide economic crisis.

There are some other goodies on sale in store that remind me of some looks on the S/S 09 runway. Such as this pink frilly dress which reminds me off Luella's S/S 09 collection. Checkout the website for more goodies.
