London Fashion Weekend A/W12

While I could write my first post babbling on about how excited I am to start a blog, I decided I'd scrap that typical idea and jump straight in.

My first post; my first experience at London Fashion Weekend during Autumn/Winter. A few years ago I sauntered down to Somerset House for LFWend during Spring/Summer, feeling chuffed with myself for going to the event, before realising it really wasn't very exclusive at all (forgive me, I was young). If I'm honest, I didn't really think much of it at the time, but as the years have passed and I've grown older, my appreciation of fashion in general has deepened and so I got rather excited to hop on a train to Temple and see what all the brands had to offer this season.

I had a great time browsing all the brands featuring there while catching up with a friend who joined me, and managed to pick up a few treats for myself, much to my bank account's despair! I'll do a follow up post with a mini-haul with what I purchased, but I thought I could dedicate this post to what I wore.

I decided to keep it casual with a pair of AllSaints skinny jeans and a new jumper I got from Topshop earlier this week. Normally a girl who sticks to girly chiffon tops and dresses, I decided to get this jumper in a moment of madness to inject a little more edginess to my wardrobe and I have to say, I'm enjoying it so far. Another new addition are the shoes: black wedges with a twist. I bought these babies from ALDO last week and couldn't wait to wear them out. Along with the jumper I think they just add something to the outfit to dress it up a little (it is LFW after all!)

Here are a few photos from the evening. Thanks for reading through my first post!
