London Fashion Week, February 18th

And so London Fashion Week is over and all the action has moved to Milan. Nevertheless the last day is always intense, busy and crowded, shows are still happening, street style is still being photographed. It's almost impossible to imagine that only the next morning Somerset House will transform itself into its usual self, the BFC tent will be gone and not a single photographer will be hunting anyone down anymore.

As for my last outfit, I chose to wear this punky cool CeMe London dress paired with a faux fur vest and comfy biker boots. I'm probably going to repeat myself but I love dresses that can be worn many different ways and transform depending on the accessories. For example, change biker boots to heels and this dress will bring you from day to evening. Wear it with a tailored blazer and it's perfect for a day in the office.

We got so lucky with the weather yesterday that for once I was actually super warm outside and it felt like the sun is becoming more and more powerful. I got a chance to catch up with my emails and social media right then and there. By the way how cool is this Helmer iPad sleeve? They have such a great selection of accessories of every colour to match any outfit!

So, bye bye London Fashion Week! This time it hasn't been too easy (being ill all the way through) but it's still been so much fun! Hope you guys have enjoyed my LFW diary xx

London Fashion Week, February 16th (Part I)

So here is what I wore yesterday to the shows at Savoy and Tate Modern. I love playing with outfits during fashion week as it's the time to dress up and experiment. I have always loved this skirt/bomber combo on other people, but have never tried wearing it myself. So I'm glad I had an excuse to do it yesterday.

Scroll through the post to see a couple of pictures from the shows and make sure you follow me on Instagram (@juliashutenko) to see all instant updates.

Also as the title of this post suggests there is a Part II from yesterday coming. Look out for my second look of the day later today xo

London Fashion Week, February 15th

Hi guys! Sorry for a couple of days of silence. If you follow me on the Instagram (@juliashutenko) you know that I've been fighting a flu for a couple of days and was forced to miss the first day of London Fashion Week and spend the whole Valentine's Day in bed. I am still not completely well, but I'm back in business and here is my take on London Fashion Week, Day 2.

So you have probably heard that weather in the UK is playing mean tricks lately. Yesterday was no different. One moment it was pouring down with rain and in a few minutes sun came out. There was a lot of umbrella vs. sunglasses action around Somerset House. Because I was still taking it very easy yesterday, I could only attend a couple of shows and rushed back into bed. But those couple of shows were oh so good! Every season I admire Holly Fulton and John Rocha and yesterday their collections were as wonderful as ever. You'll see some of my shots from the shows if you scroll down.

In terms of my outfit, it might not be visible, but I have layers and layers of clothes to keep me warm. Dressing for February fashion week is never easy. It's cold, it's wet and you still have to try and look good. I am wearing Finders Keepers' top and trousers paired with my most versatile black coat and favourite heels.

Hope you enjoy my LFW diary and do come back tomorrow for more updates. Have a lovely Sunday and I am off to see TOPSHOP UNIQUE show.
