#LFW Spring 2014









Lets start my thanking the clouds for holding off the absolute downpour for at least a couple of hours yesterday. Somerset House courtyard was jam-packed full of bloggers, photographers and fashion folk alike all showcasing London street-style in its truest form and praying that any minute the clouds won't open. Keeping is tonal, I opted for a more relaxed look, throwing on this hugggeeee cropped sweater to keep me warm in the blistering winds. But hey had the legs out - all in the name of fashion. Of course I had to add a bit of red lippy which - for me - is an absolute #LFW must have. MAC's Ruby Woo is my go to colour and has always been ever since I bought my very first lipstick from Selfridges MAC counter oh way back when. Had a shoot for Kerastraight today, and tried out MAC's newest addition to their matt collection - Relentlessly Red - which is a slightly more pink version of their classic Ruby Woo - adding that to the must buy list! Had an absolutely great time with #teamkerastraight and Essence PR, be sure to stay tuned for a post on my gorgeous new locks soon!

LFW: Burberry A/W 2013

London Fashion Week is always a sartorial spectacle with Somerset House being flooded with bloggers, fashion photographers and style icons getting papped left right and centre. I'm sure that I am bias, but London really does have the best street style in the world. No plaid shirt and bagged jean combo nor strict sharp tailoring rules, but some of the best and most unique ensembles thrown together by the chicest individuals this country has ever seen. Don't you worry guys, I'll do a LFW street style shoot soon but I just couldn't wait to give you guys a view into the Burberry show today featuring none other than the absolute dream trio; Karlie, Cara & Jourdan oh to be that leggy *sigh*. 



What I'm Wearing: ASOS Gilet & Top, Vintage Levi's & Hat, Kurt Geiger Shoes & Celine Bag.

Lets just start by saying that it wouldn't be a Burberry show without a bit of trench loving. Christopher Bailey had really outdone himself with the selected few featured in the line up, mixed in amongst the bold stripes and two tone animal prints. The blood red PVC and animal print panelling took the iconic trench to a whole new level, whilst the absolute show stopper piece had to be the camel cashmere coat worn by Jourdan Dunn with metallic gold appliqué animal print. Adding that on my 'list of items I must immediately buy when I win the lottery'. Leather tassels with silver eyelet detail, kitsch all over heart silk print blouses and skin tight pencil skirts are all taking Burberry into a slightly more urban look for next winter, yes, well of course I want it all! Here are some of my favourite looks from the show.








Just in case you needed some more trench kisses, here is a little video I shot from of the outstanding finale featuring a live performance from the extremely talented Tom Odell (be sure to check out my instagram @georgiabenj for some more FROW action from the Burberry show).

Back To Black




What I'm Wearing: ASOS Gilet & Cold Shoulder Top, Topshop Trousers, Zara Slippers & Celine Bag.







I love colours, prints and stripes, but sometimes you've just got to go black. An absolute fail safe when it comes to fashion, and a mixture of textures is always the way to go. Fur, leather, twill and super fine knit was my choice of the day for a long session in the library before heading back down to London for LFW. I almost died when my Burberry invite came in the post, literally one of the most beautiful invites I have ever seen, laser cutting and Burberry absolute way to my heart!
