LFW- a few housekeeping items and new friends

Have you been reading the LFW coverage on the worldwideweb? A lot of press about bloggers and industry folks. I think I may throw in my fifty pence worth... I feel honoured to have attended some of the shows, no matter who. These designers have put blood, sweat and sequins into their collections. Who cares if Alexa Chung stood fifty yards from you? Put it on your facebook status, move on. That is not what Fashion Week is about. If you are going to attend Fashion Week appreciate the fact you were able to go and do what you were supposed to do. BLOG ABOUT THE CLOTHES. Some people would love to be here and can't and yet you spend ages trying to get a picture with sone z-list who has got a stylist and probably can't tell the difference between Kane and Rocha.
I have been a bit overwhelmed by the whole thing but have enjoyed nearly every minute. Everywhere you go, there will be wankers, whether it's fashion or in IT. But don't hate, congratulate! I encountered one person who labelled all bloggers as floggers. But some industry people blog for petes sake! And I have not once tried to push my way up to sit next to Janet Jackson or whoever. People have work to do. I'm content huddling behind people and entertaining (hopefully) our readers with what I saw on my trusty digital camera. So it's great if you read Vogue and call blogs unedited shit, but I can't afford to buy Vogue. So I would never have the chance to see the designers I have seen at LFW. Even if Lujain who is working hard in Cork can see some of the awesome things I have seen, I feel my job as a blogger has been done.
Ok rant over.

Anyway, we have a guest blogger for Fashion Week. Introducing Jessica. She likes history, a glass of white wine and TK Maxx.I met some great new bloggers and old-new friends.

Lucy from Snippets of Shiny Thoughts is super.

Rowena from Rosiepop can do no wrong by me. She is impeccable.

Niamh from Handbags and Faghags

I caught up with Ozzy, Nneoma, Carrie, Carina, Sarah and Reena over the weekend as well.
Tor from FabFrocks and Milly from Mlle-Milly are darlings. Lots of people.
Life highlight (possibly) was seeing Fred Butler outside the Creme de la Crepe van. I gushed in awe and asked if she would let me have an eagerbeaverfanphoto. She is lovely.


Peace, Fi xx
