Christopher Raeburn | LFW

These pictures are not my own and I do not take credit. 

On the 22^nd of September, the BFC Show Space presented another Spring/Summer 16 catwalk and this time it was Christopher Raeburn’s turn.

Against an ambient soundtrack, the models walked down the catwalk in clothes that truly represented the season. This season follows a colour scheme that of pastel yellows, monochrome, khakis and cornflower blues. Perfect for the transition from winter into spring and then into summer.

Dresses, skirts, sleeveless long-line jackets, trench coats and heavy sandals, from his collaboration with Clarks, were the key items modelled in the show with ribbed, panelled and sheer loose fabrics, almost as if the models were floating down the runway in the early spring breeze as the tweeting of birds played in the background.  

The model’s natural make up and scraped back hairstyles portrayed a laid back, summer atmosphere in conjunction with Raeburn’s ready-to-wear collection.

Thank you Christopher for an excellent show, I certainly enjoyed it whilst pretending to be studying!!

Paris Is Always A Good Idea

 

It seems so long ago now, but at the end of August I went to Paris and honestly, it was like living in a dream!! Everything that you see in the adverts, on the TV and in films was suddenly right in front of you and it was just as beautiful in real life.

We stayed in the 19th arrondissement, to the east of the centre, and before we went we were panicking slightly because internet reviews ran along the lines of "don't go here if it's your first time", but it was actually really nice! Our apartment was on a pedestrianised road so there was no noise, we had a super market on the corner and the Parc de Buttes Chaumont was less than a 5 minute walk away.

We didn't stop all week either! Even though we had a travel pass, we did a LOT of walking and as you can see, we visited everything, such as Disney, Sacre Couer, Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower, which is incredibly beautiful at night.

I really hope I get the chance to go back there soon because it exceeds all expectations and I had so much fun - I would 100% recommend going there.
