Lily
Jil Sander's Amazing Technicolor Collection
Double Take
I'm in love with this outfit on Katie Mossman, who's a stylist...of course. I love this type of minimalism, and it's actually the kind of minimalist dressing that an over-accessorizer like myself can achieve. I think it all lies in that wonderful red and the fact that her Balenciaga dress is leather! No need for accessories with a dress like that. The CĂ©line bag is pretty amazing too.

Chunky Knit Winter Cardigan
Okay so for all my readers who are at sixth form/college/university this is a post for you. Daily you wake up thinking 'what am i going to wear?' or 'should I make an effort today?'. Well in my opinion you should ALWAYS make an effort. So today i've gone for the casual yet 'classy' look. All key pieces are from Matalan
This chunky knit long cardigan was only £25! you can buy it HERE!
This is staple for this season and a must-have in your wardrobe. A chunky knit cardigan is seen as like an alternative to a coat, when it's not cold enough to wear one. This cardigan is for those days where its dry and cold and there's NO rain in sight.
So on monday i thought this is the perfect to wear. And what shoes did i pick?!
these gorgeous Wedges from Matalan
And at £18 really, where can you go wrong? I wore them on monday to college, and the amount of compliments and people asking how much they were from Topshop (assuming they were from there) was unreal!
I don't think many people realise how good wedges are to walk in, how comfy they are even after 6 hours of working!
I really love how they are khaki green and perfect for this A/W 2010!

Oh in the Sun, Sun Having Fun
I love that Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturini Fendi actually made a spring collection for Fendi. One of the things I've noticed over fashion month is that a lot of designers are making collections that are almost entirely comprised of seasonless pieces, and I don't really get the point in that. The Fendi collection, on the other hand, had enough flouncy dresses, vibrant colours, and drawstring tunics to fully satiate my spring fashion longing. Every piece is beautiful and obviously intended for spring-summer dressing, right down to the amazing Day-Glo lipsticks used throughout the show (created by Peter Phillips, the man behind Chanel Rouge Coco).

Summer Snow Art Exhibit
Summer Snow is an art exhibit that interprets the SS 2011 woman Marsèll Goccia collection. The art collabortive Nucleo suggests a snowfall out of season. Spraying white polyurethane with a semiautomatic machine Nucleo recreates the effect of random typical snowstorm on the shoes. The show runs Via Paullo 12/A Milan | 23rd September – 15th October. 26 Rue Saint Gilles, 75003, Paris | 30th September – 8th October
