Chanel's Little Black Jacket


Quite a while back I went to the Saatchi Gallery to see The Little Black Jacket exhibition. I went in order to research for a uni photography project. Obviously you can never EVER go wrong with Chanel so thoroughly enjoyed looking at all the images. I loved the concept of showing the different ways you can interpret and wear a jacket which is also a nice fresh spin on the 'little black dress'. The many muses varied from actresses, models and singers however the makeup and styling made some of them almost recognisable showing a lot of creativity.

My favourite thing though has to be receiving a large free poster that me and my friend queued for (only for around 15 minutes) for men dressed in suit to inform us "here is a present from Karl".... "Er wow, Ok tell him I say Cheers!"...What a thoughtful guy, just another thing to add to the list of reasons why we love Lagerfeld. 

We got to choose from 3 images, my chosen one is now framed and hanging up in my room ( see christmas post). Here are a few of my favourite photos including Alexa Chung, Elle Fanning and Leigh Lezark....

Fashion Crush: Emma Roberts

I thought I would do a little post on my new style crush Emma Roberts. She has been on the fashion radar for a while now due to her cute yet edgy and on trend look.

I think Emma Roberts has a lovely natural style that is fashionable yet accessible. Especially her day time look that often consists of jeans, vest, cardigan and an oversized bags and sunglasses. She is one of the few actresses in my opinion that dresses her age, never looking too old nor too young. I have always been a fan of Emma and used to watch her on Nickelodeon, I was team Unfabulous rather then Jamie Lynn Spears's Zoey 101. So I love seeing her turn from awkward pre teen to sitting front row at Chanel.

I feel recently that I needed to start looking for a fresher celebrity style. As much as I used to love Alexa Chung, I was starting to get a little bored and disappointed. Her messy hair, brogues and masculine jackets are starting to feel a bit old hat. I feel like every member of The Saturdays have taken over as the Brits that all girls want to emulate with their style. But I do really love American Emma Roberts collar detailing and smart jackets. I am going to have to start keeping a look out in more magazines and films for her!
