(British) Plus Size Fashion Weekend – Curves Ahead!

Yes, it’s still “fashion week” and yes, the world of fashion is STILL jet setting across the globe!

 

What you may not know is this; while the Brits and the fashion obsessed natives traveled to London, there was also a fashion week(end) dedicated for plus size women! The British Plus Size Fashion Weekend (or BPSFW for short) took place last weekend (February 14 & 15) during the first three days during London Fashion Week. This year marks the second anniversary for such a great event!

You bet yours truly is going to try to make it next year! I should probably start saving now for a London weekend getaway! There is nothing better than seeing all these gorgeous curvaceous bods strut down the runway!

LFW: Adidas by Stella McCartney


London Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

The first time I noticed Stella McCartney made workout clothes…I was watching tennis. Of all things not related to fashion unless of course you’re the trail blazing fashionistas aka The Williams Sisters. As I watched Caroline Wozniacki play, I noticed how cute her outfit was…it was sheer and colorful and it looked “wearable.” If a former world number one can play tennis in it, it HAS to be good!

 

 

 

 

That was three or four years ago, fast forward to now and the design partnership continues….

London Fashion Week Spring Summer 2014: House of Holland

London Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

Love.

Love.

Love.

 

The set was bright and airy which totally made me feel like an upbeat spring morning (in the hood.) Kind of thinking that’s where Henry Holland wanted us to go with his Spring/Summer 2014 collection. Loose fitting dresses, lace on pants, dark lips and floral tattoos on trench coats.

 If this is what a “sweatsuit” or “jogging suit” will look like next year….count me in!

So young, fresh, and new! I wanna be a House of Holland Homegirl!

When the wet-haired models didn’t have their flowing tresses free, House of Holland gave some a baseball hat! Um, yes please! It’s always my inner tomboy wanting to wear lace outside to play in grass and that was the icing on top of a sweet confetti filled cake!

LFW: Burberry Prorsum


London Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

After the last few years of heart throbbing collections from Burberry, I really really have high expectations. I mean, the clear colored trench coats with bags to match then the hearts, studs, and leather of this fall…who can resist those collections?! By the way, I’m STILL looking for that hard-to-find Burberry Check Whipstitch Bag! I’ve talked to stores in New York and beyond looking for that bag!

 

 Moving on to more things to covet…

 

Lace, stripes, polka dots OH MY!

 

 

London treats my fashion fix so so so well!

London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2014: Mulberry


London Fashion Week

Spring/Summer 2014

 

 

Soooo…this happened at the Mulberry show this week…

 

 

Yep! Bulldogs!

 

Could you even imagine my excitement when I saw the first picture from the show?! As a pet lover, it’s always exciting when animals and humans collide to bring us something incredible. Incredible like a runway show with supermodels and matching attire for the cutest and chubbiest best friend ever!

 

 

The collection was ok…seems like the usual style from Mulberry and that’s a great thing! If you haven’t noticed by now…I love frilly things that can be mixed with boxy things…ie. jeans! Mulberry has me covered in the outfit idea department. The next pics are my absolute faves from the show…it’s something about a pop of color that excites me!
