This is so sad, McQueen's Memorial Service, London Sept 2010

I feel sad that all these friends who attended Alexander McQueen's Memorial Service in London yesterday has such amazing things to say about him and yet Lee McQueen who had suffered with depression and anxiety for years obviously still felt so alone and unable to cope.

Lucy In Disguise Shop Launch, London- featuring Liz Mendez Amazing Accessories

I went to support one of my oldest friends Liz Mendez shop launch last week for her new vintage store Lucy In Disguise in Covent Garden at the start of London Fashion Week. The shop is the brainchild of sisters Lilly and Sarah Allen and Liz is responsible for all the accessories in the shop and has put allot of time and effort into sourcing pieces from across the World.

Me & Liz at the party

The shop itself is very cute and the layout is great, as they have section for different decades, 40's, 50's 60's etc which makes it easy to find stuff- the 80's section for me was the best (no brainer) with some fabulous jackets.
They have found some beautiful pieces from Lacroix to Chanel from LA, San Fran, Paris from Liz, Lilly & Sarah's trips all over the globe. The prices do reflect the quality and the high end labels & also the simple fact that everyone is now into vintage, ergo you will have to have quite deep pockets to shop at Lucy In Disguise, however they also do cute little 'lucy' bags and T- shirts with their illustrated logo on.

The launch party last Wednesday at the shop was fulled with the friends and family of Liz, Lilly and Sarah including musicians, fashionistas and magazine peeps alongside some random tabloid chicks. It was a fun way to showcase the clothes with free champagne, music from DJ Seb Chew and goodie bags. The place was rammed to the rafters and the obligatory Paparazzi lay in wait for some Danielly Lloyd/ Lilly/ Meg Mathews action ;)
Liz's accessories really were the highlight of the shop for me, so I have posted some pics of them below. She will be hiring some of the more spectacular pieces including headwear out for shoots. Email lizmendez1@me.com for more info

The River Island Press Preview A/W 2010 Shows

River Island are fast becoming the force to be reckoned with on the British High Street. A few months ago they had Kelis model their London Fashion Week Graduates Collection and I love spinning for their Salon Shows for the Fashion Press. Not only is it a fun day, but I get to sneak a look at all the newest pieces coming out for next season.



This time it was their Xmas Collection. My favourite pieces were the leopard wedges and the clog boots (I have put in my order already!) They will look great with everything - the only thing is I had some exactly the same 15 yrs ago heh heh..

The Show...
Arieta from River Island presented all the new looksthe hat I tried to steal! AMAZE !





I took photos of the run- through as I was too busy DJing during the show, so I couldnt take snaps of the clothes
