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....  

Frock Me Vintage Fashion Faire

A few weekends ago I visited Chelsea Town Hall for the Frock Me vintage faire. Which was filled to the brim of luxury designer vintage goods. Shoes, hats, jewellery, fur, wedding dresses they had it all. Despite the fact they were all second hand does not mean it was student budget friendly. But with my student £2.00 entry I got a lovely free bag and book on the best places to have cream tea. I actually visited the fair not to shop but to interview vintage sellers for a article I have to write for a university project. But that didn't mean I couldn't look at all the wonderful items that the faire had to offer. My favourite items have to be anything by Biba especially the black jumper with shimmery white sequins and a Valentino silver skirt from the 1920s that scream luxurious flapper girl.
