Style: London Fashion Week AW 2010

London's Fashion Week proved to be the most low key in terms of extravagant designers and celebrity apperances.  In fact, the designs on the runway this season proved more wearable than the outfits of most of the show goers, each invitee seeking to either express the most extreme version of their style, or simply to out dress the others.  Aside from the catwalks, it was the bloggers who ruled LFW this year with an increased amount of 33 percent of invites going to Fashion Bloggers, whose motto seemed to be to gain access by "any means necessary."

With a constant stream of shows, LFW took place without a hitch each show going live as close as possible to its scheduled times.  And as a special mark of the digital revolutions influnece on fashion, each show was streamed live online and an assortment of photos and videos can be found on  http://www.londonfashionweek.co.uk/.  The press lounge was also full equipped with Macs galore, perfect for instant updates, live blogging and footage uploading.  And, if any of the media had time between shows, there was a Mac make over station, and Toni & Guy blow out station.

Fame's Allure


Obama Fashion Fund Raiser


In honor of Michelle Obama who as of recent has been recognized by the fashion world for her style a group of fashionistas hosted an event-- a fashion swap-- all to raise money for the Obama campaign. My fabulous mentor Erika Kendrick was one of the hosts. You also got the opportunity to take a professional photo. An organization was there compiling photos of Obama supporters to be published in a book. I was also interviewed by Eirka on camera, as soon as I get that footage I will post it for you all to see. It was a great event. We even had the pleasure of seeing Kersten Stevens perform. She is an extremely talented violinist who actually opened for Barack Obama at a conference recently. I have a video of her performance. Expand this post to view the video and see more photos.

She killed it for real check out the video I took:

















Happy 21st Birthday Ashley!

She's the first one of theSocialites to "officially" turn 21 (he he). TheSocialites have been a little less than social this summer but everyone was sure to come out to celebrate the big 2-1 for Ash. (some earlier than others-- RAEANA aka miss 5 hours later 'I'll be there in 5 mins)








The Fashion Industry



I went to another panel, this one was on fashion. It was great, it had major stylists, designers and other knowledgeable people in the industry. I made a lot of great connections and saw some familiar faces. Hearing their stories really makes you see that anything is possible if you really want it.
