Our LFW SS14 Highlights

Fashion Week was a whirlwind of events, shows, presentations, and parties and as well as showcasing our collections at the Handpicked Media suite, which you can read about in this blog post, some of our team were also on hand to capture all of the action at Somerset House and beyond. As a trend led jewellery brand, we love seeing the new season collections on the catwalks first hand and are always especially interested to see how the designers use jewellery within their shows. But as always the trends don't stop at the end of the runway and often the style on the streets is just as intriguing! In this post we thought we would round up some of our LFW highlights, from the street style to our favourite shows to the best celebrity FRows. Enjoy! The Shows... From Cara Delevigne looking divine in pastels at Burberry to the pug stealing the show at Mulberry, this season the designers certainly gave us plenty to talk about. Some of our personal highlights included the Turkish influences at Bora Aksu, bodycon fringing at Mark Fast, and some serious statement necklaces at Ashish. The Presentations... Often the most creative showcases, presentations can be a great way to see a collection up close and really get an idea of the designers inspiration. We visited a safari like no other at Orla Kiely, the perfect girls night in at Marcus Lupfer and eery childhood memories at Edeline Lee. The Street Style... We spotted some seriously stylish folks gracing the Somerset House cobbles and you can see all of the fashionistas we snapped on our Pinterest board but a few of our favourite spots are above, including actress Chiara Wilde and Made in Chelsea's Victoria. The Star studded Front Rows...

After such a long and hot Summer who would have thought that the one accessory everyone would be carrying this season would be the umbrella? But in true British style, the heavens opened on Day 1 and stayed open for day 2 and day 3 and, well, you get the picture. Thankfully the fashion world took it in their stride and the umbrella became the ultimate way of accessorising your outfit! Those were our highlights but what were yours?
