I Simply Must Go - But Baby It's Cold Outside...

Ok so as a 'fashion' blogger I shoulda posted this approximately 5 months 18 million years ago I KNOW. But I just stumbled across the catwalk shots of the Hermes Autumn Winter 2011/12 collection and some of the pieces really blew me away.

These two were probably my favourites...

Stunning, stunning, stunning!! Had to share, late as I am.

What do you think?? And which styles will be keeping you snug through the Winter??? I noticed people seem to care less about style during the colder months, opting for warmth or whatever but on the whole i'd rather freeze and look the way I wanna look- with the exception of a few fur coats and capes i'm really not one for wrapping up. This year though it might be nice to not have to listen to the incessant chattering of my own teeth, so if anyone has any pointers of how to balance not freezing with changing up your style lemme know?!

Thanks for all the feedback on my hair and please don't get me wrong- I do what I want with my hair and style all the time I was just hoping not to disappoint subscribers who'd taken inspiration from my braids in particular- Which i'm missing like crazy right now!!

Lastly, to answer a few points- I get my eyebrows threaded in a tiny salon just down the road from Mile End station, it's above a kebab shop or something- Glamorous I know, but well worth it. Don't know the name but you can't miss it. And don't worry- the artsier posts will be returning soon, got a few little things planned but i'll explain more about that later...

Toodles to you bitches xx

Boohoo, That's Why I'm Crying For You, Someday You'll Feel Like I Do And You'll Be Boo-hoo-hooin' Too!!...

Hello chika's, sexy bitch's, hun's, lovely's and everything else I call you lot....

It's been a very busy week, but in between job hunting, working and moving into a new house, I popped down to the launch of boohoo.com's new Autumn/Winter collection. Besides making the most of the free champs, delicious scones (seriously, I don't even like scones but these were amazing), chats with lovely fellow bloggers and the boohoo team... AND the complimentary boohoo voucher we received in our goody bags (I literally squealed with excitement very loudly in a fashion that can only be described as ghetto *smh*), we also had a good look through the collection and there are some very tasty pieces.

I'm a big boohoo fan anyway- we all know affordable fashion is my thing. But I have to say there's a more sophisticated edge to this new stuff- a vintage current runs through it- think '40s blouses, '60s tunics and tailoring, '70s brights and maxi's. As well as all the on trend things you'd expect- floaty palazzo pants, lots of sheers, lots of colour, big knits, pretty florals, luxe faux furrrrrrrr, barbour jackets etc. But enough of my jibber jabber, i've whittled my many, many, many pics down to these favourites...

Classic barbour jackets

Buying!!!

Loveeeeeeee this, definitely on my shopping list!!...

Cute embellished shirt

Pretty '40s inspired floral blouse

a baby blue?? little '40s number

Also gotta buy this semi-transparent metallic jumper

Gorgeous pleated palazzo's 

Getting cold??...

Tasty treats

I HATE this pic but it's the only one of me and my friend at the event so...

What d'you think?? Any favourite pieces??... I love a few things but the long sheer black shirt looks so versatile, got to get that soon as they put it on the website!!!!

This event has confirmed three things to me-
1) I must work in fashion in some capacity. An office job just wont do.
2) I NEED a good camera. Preferably a canon. More likely another Panasonic Lumix.
3) My brokeass needs some new clothes or i'm gonna have to change the name of this blog to either Zizzi's Empty Wardrobe or Zizzi's Worn Out Wardrobe. I'm definitely buying that long black blouse with my voucher!!

Right, i'm gonna be a little boohoo groupie now and put on my free t-shirt, make the hot chocolate I got in my goodie bag and go to bed.

Toodles to you bitches xx
