Denim is not Dead : Stockholm

This week I travelled to Stockholm, Sweden and  I was caught completely unawares of how magnificent this city is.

I started by walking around the old town and became short of breath at the beauty of the small streets, colourful churches and the royal palace. As I continued I became increasingly aware of the change in atmosphere around me. I had walked from the clean cut, more commercial Island of Stockholm into the hipster style island of Sodermalm. It was then I discovered the meaning of cool, found the best coffee, bookshops, vintage stores and the rest. 

Of course Sweden is world famous for Acne,Cheap monday and Nudie but I wanted to take a more under-ground tour of the fashion capital so I had some friends of friends take me on adventures around the undiscovered areas. But of course, like any tourist, I ended up at the Acne Studio and bought my first set of pistols.

So denim is not dead & Stockholm certainly isn't either.

Here are some snaps of the trip::

I attended this new denim launch for Aussie brand  Neuwdenim.com . Stuff so hot you would want to wear it out then sleep in it afterwards.

Maria Grachvogel : London Fashion Week

This week I had the pleasure of attending one of London's most luxurious fashion show's - Maria Grachvogel. Set in the Ballroom of the iconic Savoy Hotel, we entered into extravagant classical music, gold chandeliers, mirrors and a buzz of excitement from the guests.
The lights dimmed and models emerged in all their glory with flowing silk jumsuits and gowns, incredible work of drapery, in the deepest golds and greens (my favourite colours!) The outfits were finished with intricate body chains and beige knee high boots.

Such a elegant start to Fashion week & I'm excited to see more! But off to Stockholm tomorrow so I'llbe posting from there!

Heres my photo diary of both the show & some of the guests:
