An Outsider's View: Burberry Prorsum 2016


It's safe to say Mario Testino's face, photographed by myself outside the grungy Soho venue, encapsulates all of the world's feelings towards last night's Burberry show. The British brand launched its long-awaited runway-to-retail model in a typical Burberry extravaganza of a show. 

Set just off of Soho Square, London, in a disused warehouse - a much more London-appropriate and edgy location in comparison to the glamourous Kensington Gardens - the space was transformed into a workshop-style installation, titled Makers House. So last night, that's just where my friend Sarah and I headed to. 

But first, pizza.


My sister Jess always raves about Franco Manca and I can finally understand why. The Soho branch of this chain was the hive of bustling activity for a Monday evening - large groups of friends gathered and mingled over glasses of wine, couples romanticised in the low key lighting, while others simply devoured the delicious delicacies on offer.

My Met Gala Best Dressed List

Blake Lively, Karlie Kloss
I know, I know. You're probably all fed up with seeing Met Gala photos by now, however I just couldn't resist sharing with you all my favourite looks. I seldom feature celebrity style on ATF but considering the fashion stakes were so high this year at the event due to the incredible and interesting theme of "Manus Versus Machina: Fashion in An Age of Technology", I had to make an exception. There were so many beautiful and creative looks that perfectly fitted the breif - be it through futuristic metallic shades in favour of technology's impact on fashion or intricate hand-embroidery to show the power of hand craft. I can't quite decide who's my favourite look is, but I must confess that I rather love Kate Hudson's Versace look. There's something so mechanical and deconstructed about it, and it perfectly frames her feminine figure. Yet, I don't think anyone can deny Claire Danes' Cinderella gown (that FYI...lights up!) is one beauty of a dress! Click below to see more of my favourite looks from the 2016 Met Gala.

Snapped: London Fashion Week


As you've probably seen from my other recent blog posts, last week I popped over to London Fashion Week at Brewer Street Car Park, Soho to see the vast array of lust-worthy street style. Of course, I attempted to play my part and dress in something I loved wearing to showcase my style.

My First London Fashion Week - Pt 1


 ...well kinda. Unfortunately, no shows were on the agenda this year but my friend and I still headed over to Brewer Street Car Park, Soho to snap away at all the envious street style. With cropped fur coats and metallic, space-inspired boots in abundance, the style game this year easily surpassed previous years. But pre-LFW, we popped into Soho Grind to satisfy our cravings.

Off the Runway: The Best CFW Street Style...

At the heart of ATF's values lies the desire to be inspired by others, to learn how to cultivate style and admire creative originality. So of course street style is a huge part of this, and as the street becomes its own catwalk during fashion week, the style stakes are at their highest. As the spring/ summer Couture Fashion Week comes to a close, below are my favourite street style snaps...
