BALENCIAGA FALL COLLECTION!

YOU MAKE YOUR OWN DECISION ON THESE, BUT I GIVE THEM THE THUMBS UP.

(I won't be running to buy them though)

NIKE AIR ROYALTY

GIRLS ONLY! These trainers are smoother than a babies bottom...true smoothness. These are the new Nike Air Royalty Macaroons and they are so cool. The trainers outer surface are made from thermo-moulded leather. This new technique of shoes crafting straight out of the Parisian oven (from Paris), gives the illusion of raised seams, highlighted detail and a sturdy structure. It comes in four different colours and I can't wait to get my hands on a pair of them! :D

.............Now, now, now! Don't think that the beautiful people of Paris, would leave out the boys. These are the Nike Air Royalty Mid VT's, which only come in 3 colours. These obtain the same craftsmen ship, but a wider fit for those BIG CHEESY FEET BOYS! :P

FAFI

Please meet Fafinette aka Fafi. She is a female graffiti artist born and raised in Toulouse, France. I told you I love the french........anyway, Fafi first came onto the scene, well walls of France, back in 1994. She would paint her Fafinette characters exploring femininity by painting stereotyped girls. Some were sexy, some were cute, some were funny and some were just "to boot". Fafi has gone world wide ever since Europe, USA, Japan, Hong Kong....the world is her fafin oyster. Since dominating the world, she has exploited her colourful creations by collaborating with major companies, such as Coke-a-Cola, MAC Cosmetics, Adidas and has feature in many magazines. She has even created the Lily Allen Fafinette, for Mark Ronson's video "Oh my God!" .......2010 is upon us Fafi has now created her own comic book, so keep you eyes peeled.

From Louis Vuitton to Hyde Park

Ma mayne Kanye designed his own 'sneakers' back in 2009, but I never thought I would just randomly see some strange kid, sporting them in Hyde Park on a poor english summers day.

OSMAN YOUSEFZADA

This is the face of a man, who has so much to offer the world of fashion and I got to see him showcase his collection at the V&A presented by 'Fashion in motion'. Osman was born in the UK of Afghan origin. Since he was a child, he had been inspired by his mother, who had her own dress making business based in Birmingham, which later led to him coming to London to study fashion at 'Central Saint Martins'.

In spring 2006, he launched his collection under the Osman label, with a signature look that captured the elements of precise tailoring in collaboration with ethnicity, draped clothing of the ancient and global cultures.

He has created himself a strong following of high clientele and in 2007 Osman was nominated for a design museum 'Designs of the Year award'. He also worked in collaboration with the well know high street retailer 'Mango', which was sold in over 35 countries and now he currently showcasing in London fashion week right up there, where he deserves to be.

I had a great day with Mazminda and Lumz in the V&A. We got really bad seats, even though I booked weeks in advance, but we still had a good view and I managed to take some good photos of the designs. The collection was to die for. For the opening, they had choreographer and dancer Noel Wallace doing a site specific piece which was great, but made him sweat a lot!!!!

This is my favour piece!!! It is sliver fringed crystallize jacket, which shone strongly in the lights. I felt like a moth drawn to the flame! loool.

The shoes were absolutely ridiculous!....... ............but too fabulous to fall over in!!!!!!

RAQUEL REED!!!!

As some of you may know, this is my favourite white girl in the world!!!!! This Model, singer and makeup artist just facinates me. She's as pale as porcealin, has teal blue hair and perfect makeup that on a professional could be capable of. I'm flippin jealous! Tattooed to the make, from a 'my little pony' on her leg to the word 'doll' inside her bottom lip. She's fabulous!!!

Rock on barbie!!!!

BALENCIAGA IS BRICKING IT!

Balenciaga meets transformers, a brilliant concept, but doesn't seem like the smartest of shoes to wear on a night out. These colourful congested shoes are an accident waiting to happen. I would happily purchase these bad boys, but they would sit on my shelves and look pretty. (I think kids will mistake these for toys and try take them apart.)
I'm gonna be honest, I have tried to make my own shoes in the past but they have never come out as genius as these. Although I was using an insole, a reel of thread as the heel and ribbon wrapped round my foot, Oh and I was 9 years old. (Thought I would squeeze that little bit in.) DON'T JUDGE ME!
