Press Day Circuit


As part of my job as a stylist I attend press days. These events take place a little while after the catwalk shows and showcase what each brand will be selling for the forthcoming season. So last week I headed out in the the relentless rain dressed for lots of pavement pounding to see what's new for AW14


Dressing for comfort in H&M, Uniqlo, Topshop, Jaeger and Miu Miu
First up was Arcadia whose brands include Topshop, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins and Wallis. The statement necklace trend seems to be sticking around for AW14.

This pleather two piece from Miss Selfridge in winter florals was an eye catching outfit.
This unstructured jacket from Topshop has my name all over it!
Saying goodbye to the loveliness at Arcadia I headed over to Oasis. What a spectacular set up! The theme was 'Fun At The Circus' and it was like stepping into another world full of bumper cars:
And the cutest knitted fish and food props.

This striking orange coat was my favourite item from the collection, what better way than to cheer up a dreary winter day than with a citrus cover up!
I also had my first cronut, very delicious but I could feel my arteries clogging up.
My final stop was Kurt Geiger where I made a mental shopping list of all the shoes I want for winter. These berry brogues and starry flats are gorgeous and practical.


These studded boots are on my shopping list.
Kurt Geiger also showed some great bags. I adore animal print and this roomy shoulder bag is a perfect statement day bag.


Look out for more press day fun next week!
