Neon has been a bit on the runways for a couple of seasons now and there have been neon pieces around for a while but as with most trends, retailers are really coming into their stride a season on.

I hurried over to Somerset House from the Prose show over at VFS and was fortunate enough to have a hard copy, seated ticket. From what I hear, the queue/mob snaked around the corner and the PR had to put on a presentation after the show was over.

A simple colour palette of autumnal shades including deep burgundy, black, terracotta and navy is the perfect canvas for the intricate craftmanship which went into each piece.

As the lights went down to signify the start of the show, the Star Wars theme started blaring and then the magic started.

His signature simple lines and elegant tailoring in neutral shades made for a very high octane, passionate look. Inspired by Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, the collection juxtaposes tough leather panelling and exposed zips with soft, fluid chiffon for a structured yet soft look which walked the line between http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/FashionDaydreams/~3/0JCCSb7lUp8/london-fashion-week-krystof-strozyna.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Reena Rai)1http://www.fashiondaydreams.com/2012/02/london-fashion-week-krystof-strozyna.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770541451100160200.post-7919285182855598486Thu, 16 Feb 2012 06:00:00 +00002012-02-16T06:00:11.380ZBeautyJoe's SalonHairThere comes a time in her life when a girl decides she’s bored of saying “oh, just the usual” during a routine trip to the hairdressers. Life is a bit too short to have an inch or so trimmed off with a colour top up; so while most people were setting New Year’s resolutions to do something different or challenge themselves, I set my hairdressers that task. The lovely guys at Joe’s Salon were well http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/FashionDaydreams/~3/WPFESL6oQqw/one-where-my-hair-goes-pink.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Reena Rai)6http://www.fashiondaydreams.com/2012/02/one-where-my-hair-goes-pink.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770541451100160200.post-1239176246229316579Wed, 15 Feb 2012 21:17:00 +00002012-02-15T23:43:51.107ZBalansEatingWestfield There’s nothing like a girly trip to Westfield. With all the favourites including Dune, Oasis, Miss Selfridge and New Look are in close proximity, Westies (as I like to call it) is a little piece of weatherproof shopping heaven. Along with the hundreds of shops, it’s also home to almost 50 restaurants, ideal for a post shopping refuel or a girl’s night out.  Last week, I experienced the latter http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/FashionDaydreams/~3/FpGyK43DSKY/girls-night-out-at-westfield-london.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Reena Rai)1http://www.fashiondaydreams.com/2012/02/girls-night-out-at-westfield-london.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770541451100160200.post-6355611869604620655Wed, 15 Feb 2012 06:00:00 +00002012-02-15T06:00:04.322ZLondon Fashion WeekWednesday Wish ListApologies, this Wednesday Wish List post is a little tongue-in-cheek. As London Fashion Week edges closer and closer, the UK fashion crowd are eagerly anticipating the shows and general madness which takes over the vicinity of Somerset House. One of my favourite pastimes aside from watching the shows is watching the people, specifically those who dress up for the occasion.

There aren't very many menswear blogs out there and my interest in menswear is slowly growing, though I don't have enough free time or knowledge to start a menswear blog, I thought I'd feature pieces and collections which catch my eye on a Monday.
