Fashion week!

This week London Fashion Week kicked off which is such an exciting time of year!

I always do something fun for my nails for LFW so Ruuby app was my go-to.

Check out these super cool black points.

What to wear

My first outfit for shows was this monochrome tailored ensemble from Reiss. I am such a big fan of tailoring and am obsessed with these trousers, top and leather jacket.

Best show

My favourite show of LFW is always Julien Macdonald. The atmosphere is incredible, clothes are divine and it’s always such a great celebration of fashion.

I went for vampy make up by Tom Ford and messy waves by Clo & Flo.

My dress for the show was insane. Julien’s dresses never fail to amaze me, and this one in particular made me feel amazing.

Arrive in style

I could not have made it through London Fashion Week without the amazing Mercedes-Benz who incredibly kindly lent me a car and driver for the week to race from show to show, and even to change outfits in the back of the car. The Maybach was totally spoiling. It’s the most stunning, spacious, comfortable car I have ever been in!

Party time

These are some of my favourite accessories that I wore to the Sunday Times Style party. The ‘Notorious’ clutch bag is from Edie Parker, hand cuff from my brand Rosie Fortescue Jewellery and rings from Joubi Jewellery.
