Hi guys,
So a few weeks ago my lovely friend Sian
and I, headed to the V&A. Club to Catwalk is an 80’s exhibition dedicated
to telling the story of how club fashion heavily influenced designers, and how
they translated club style to the catwalk. Sian and I were in our element
because we both love vintage and of course love fashion, so seeing the marriage
between the street fashion of grunge/retro/punk, etc and high-end fashion,
was awesome.
The only gripe I had was that the exhibition
was way too short. I wanted to see more outfits, more textures, more video
clips, more everything! The outfits were amazing though, but unfortunately you
couldn’t take any pictures (another huge gripe of mine) so I can’t show you my
favourites, but the tweed section was dreamy.
The courtyard is so gorgeous so we thought
that would be the perfect place to take photos. Now, the dress. I
wanted to go über 80’s with disco
pants and a trashy printed dress; I had the dress but couldn’t find the pants for
love nor money. What I do have though, are some beautiful 50's vintage style dresses
- this one is from Vivien of Holloway. This dress is so pretty and colourful,
and I wanted to wear something that reflected my love of bold prints.
Dress & Belt: Vivien of Holloway
Cardigan: South (via Very)
Sandals: Dorothy Perkins
Bag: Paperchase
Sunglasses: Spitalfields Market
I've been leaving my hair naturally waving rather than using straighteners. I love it like this!
And for all those who complain I never
smile in my photos – an outtake for you:
Hope you’re all well and enjoying the last
day of the weekend. ‘til next time.
Love and hugs,
Isha
