So, another London Fashion Week season is drawing to a close and we have seen so many fabulous catwalk looks and trends! I was really lucky to go to some great shows, including the Orla Kiely AW14 show and Hema Kaul AW14 catwalk – you can read all about my day at LFW here.

Freixenet’s Little Black Bottle

The Little Black Dress is that fail-safe, go-to dress that every girl has hanging in their wardrobe and now Freixenet have come up with their Little Black Bottle – a stylish (and reasonably priced!) bottle of cava designed to be as equally fabulous at festive parties! After sponsoring the Motel blogger event a few weeks ago, Freixenet got in touch with me about their Christmas challenge where I was asked to style up their Little Black Bottle in the same way that I would a dress. Want to see how I got on? 

1 – ASOS Leather Pony Paint Clutch Bag

2 – River Island Spiked Necklace 

3 – Freixenet Little Black Bottle 

4 – Motel Fur Jacket

5 – River Island Stiletto Sandals

I love fur jackets for a party so included this fabulous black one from Motel, paired with sleek, barely-there stiletto sandals from River Island for a chic contrast. So as not to be too dark, I included a splattered clutch from ASOS and a gold spiked necklace from River Island for a bit of edge!

What do you think of Freixenet and their Little Black Bottle? How would you dress yours?

LFW SS12-Day 2 (Saturday 17th Sept 2011)

As I take a breather in the mellow press lounge at the Vauxhall Fashion Scout venue, I thought I’d do another quick post about the styles, celebs, and food here on day 2 of LFW SS12! (Also, if any of you want to read my articles for Who’s Jack magazine, then you can find my trends of the day here (maxi skirt) and here (fur) , Jasper Conran show here, and Carlotta Gherzia show here).
