Life Lately

"summer is when laziness finds respectability"

This post is essentially just a catch up and end to my month (upon month) long bloggers block. Although this summer never really seemed to happen, there was minimal sun and minimal plans - contradicting my expectations of the "best summer of my life" that I thought was supposed to finishing school (?!) I have lacked any inspiration for post's following a stressful time of GCSE exams I was simply far too focused on revision and panicking for results day to fit in blogging. However, having received my results, which were a pretty little mixture composed of A's and A*'s, I am feeling very content with life and can't wait to go back to writing so WATCH THIS SPACE.

Topshop Unique AW15

"AW15 was all chunky cable knits, thigh-split tweed kilts and dainty thistle prints"
At 2:30 this afternoon, Topshop Unique took to the Tate Britain to unveil their new autumn-winter collection, as part of their London Fashion Week display. The front row was star-studded with models Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevigne sat alongside fashion journalist, Alexa Chung. The collection featured a lot of fur and feather trim, teamed with chunky knits and tan leather, the autumnal colour scheme providing connotations of the countryside; with a lot of the audience describing  the collection as having "country bumpkin" feel. 
The AW collection has a focus on texture, Topshop paring rough leather with fur creating a juxtaposition; like the contrast between delicate floral prints and the daring gingham fabrics.
What do you think of the AW collection?
