Solange Knowles for Madewell Fall 12

I was wondering how long it would take for my style icon Solange Knowles to score her first fashion campaign. Lo and behold, we didnt have to wait for long..... Solange has been unveiled for the new face of Madewell, the sister label of  J. Crew. This is her first major fashion contract.

Madewell-sister company to American giant J. Crew describes its new face as "ever so-stylish", and has released a behind-the-scenes video of Knowles filming the new Mix Well: Madwell Campaign shoot.

Solange has previously modelled for Rimmel makeup, and has appeared on the catwalk for Alberta Ferretti Limited Edition.

Heres some pics:-










My verdict is that they have found the best person for there campaign!!!!!

African Fashion Week London- AFWL

There was no better location than Spitafields Market to hold AFWL. This location is central and always attracts a diverse crowd. So as I approach the market, i was greeted with beautiful bold and vibrant colours, the weather was great to.

If you'd purchased a ticket on-line, you was given a goody bag, there was some lovely things on sale. From accessories all the way down to clothing. I was so excited because normally to get things in African fabric, i would have to order things on-line or the extreme and travel back to where parents from......lol.
So this was my opportunity, here are a few pics........




Look at all these beautiful accessories...............




After all the shopping and walking around,i got a bit peckish......lol



How cool is this chair.....I LOVE IT!!!!


BUSHIKY.......



Seeing as it was AFWL, it would not be right if i didn't wear something African, so i wore a pepulum style top sewed with African fabric and paired it with some dark blue jeans.
Overall, it was a great event and hopefully next year people become more aware of this event!!!

VLISCO-Funky Grooves Collection

Since 1846,Vlisco has been designing and producing colourful fashion fabrics that form the important part of lively West and Central African Culture

The Funky Grooves collection draws from Vlisco’s proud history, inspired by global urban culture and couture craftsmanship. It’s a collection of contrasts, with edgy street wear influences reinterpreted through a lens of pure glamour. The new collection is a melting pot of ideas, using new colours to update Vlisco’s heritage designs, and classic Vlisco techniques to create new looks. 








This collection will be available in selected Vlisco stores end August.
I just love the bright colours of fabric and how it has been fused together with contrasting fabric.
