a bit of lovely for your monday morn

the shows must go on.  the fashion shows i mean...  there was a moment of silence to mark the loss of Alexander McQueen at the start of London Fashion Week.  bittersweet.   but the shows must go on - with the hope that there will emerge a new talent to grab the reins.

London fashion particularly rocks my little world - i suppose in part because of my Brit blood - it gets all bubbly with excitement.  there's always a bit more of an edge to the collections out of London than anywhere else.  it's just what we do i suppose...

right then, that being said, Matthew Williamson is not one of the edgier designers, but for the love of God he is a good one.  these pieces are BEAUTS.  normally he is Sir Print A-Lot.  but i'm much more into to the gorge lines in the simpler pieces this time round.  while the cape is killer with the shock of cobalt,  the piece that really has me all dreamy is that drapey jacket over a long dress.  LOVE it. LOVE. 

yes please!
