ICYMI : Oxford Fashion Studio London Collections

On Saturday 18th February, Oxford Fashion Studio embarked on their second show in London and I have to say that they have truly out done themselves.

Let’s take a trip back to the start of the day:

In the beautiful Devonshire Square, Oxford Fashion Studio picked the perfect place to show off London in its juxtaposing robustness and elegance.

Some of the Designers in the show were:

And the shows were exceptional!

A bit of BTS action:

And now it’s onward and Upwards for Paris Fashion Week!

Victoryforu’ Grammy Favourites

The Grammys were pretty amazing with Beyonce, JLo and Chance the Rapper. Let’s look at some of the best fashion moments of the night.

A bit of Dapper James Corden.

Beyonce glowing in Gold during her performance.

Kirk Franklin celebrating his win with his beautiful wife.

Diplo bringing his kids to work for the day.

I am loving the chain smokers at the moment and I am completely loving their outfits too.

Demi wearing Julien Macdonald. I love this dress on her but she does seem to be channelling Kim K.

Rihanna looks beautiful in her bold black skirt and sparkly hip flask. I am not too keen on the shape of the crop top.

Lady Gaga with pastel Pink hair (All the rage right now) and wearing a Metallica-inspired outfit who she later performed with.

Katy Perry’s Red carpet outfit polarised the media. Personally, I did not like the Tom Ford dress, it looked too disjointed and was not a coherent look for me. However, her “Chained to the Rhythm” performance outfit was much better.

And those were my favourites!

ICYMI : NYFW February 9th-15th 2017

NYFW has come to an end!

Just in case you missed the whole of New York Fashion Week this season, I am going to show you my favourite moments.

Starting with Colourful and optimistic designs from Desigual!

I enjoyed watching this show and I believe this is one of the most wearable collections. The individual pieces are all intricately made and the effort of the artistry is evident. I feel like Desigual is a staple fashion house and everyone should strive to have at least one piece from their brand.

Tadashi Shoji is up next. Having dressed Katy Perry, Octavia Spencer, Miranda Kerr and Michelle Obama, NYFW must be a breeze for the Japanese veteran designer. Bold sleeves, Sheer materials and Delicate details seem to be the main focus for this collection. Definitely for the powerful and confident woman.

This is not what they showcase this season at NYFW, however, Noon by Noor always create amazing pieces that are usually quite light and airy which may have something to do with being from Bahrain.

The Michael Costello show was one of my NYFW highlights. The Hair, The designs, The Insanely DIVERSE models! Amazing. Costello has dressed the likes of Beyonce, JLo and Lady Gaga, Graced the cover of NY times and People Magazine and has featured in Vogue, Vanity Fair and Elle so he has a lot of experienced studying the female form and knowing what works best.

Jeremy Scott created some amazing designs which I enjoyed, However there were a few pieces that looked odd with the whole collection.

But that’s Just my opinion!

The visual display at Cushnie et Ochs and juxtaposing themes were really amazing.

After both Zendaya and Beyonce wearing his brand, Romeo Hunte is on his way to being a household name like Dior, Prada or Gucci.

Another designer that I absolutely love is Marchesa. Love the cold shoulders on this dress.

Let’s just all take a moment to appreaciate Naeem Khan and his work! I am always in awe of what he creates.

And last, But by no means least, Prabal Gurung. One of the designers that I look up to. I hope he continues to use his platform for good.

 

And that is my NYFW round up!

I hope you have enjoyed it

Victoryforu’s Declassified Valentine’s Day Survival Guide – Tip 8 – Safety

This is the final and most important tip I can give you!


Staying safe is vital to surviving Valentine’s day… or any day really.

  1. Use Protection! (Decipher this as you will)
  2. If you’re going to a club or even a restaurant, watch your drinks or take them with you.
  3. Make sure you know exactly where you are.
  4. Only get in licenced taxis!
  5. Don’t drink too much (It’s not as attractive as you may think)

I hope these simple tips keep you safe!

I hope you have enjoyed Victoryforu’ Declassified Valentine’s Day Survival Guide as much as I have enjoyed writing it!

Victoryforu’ Declassified Valentine’s Day Survival Guide – Tip 7 – Skincare

Today is Valentine’s Day and that usually involves a lot of physical contact. So make sure your skin is looking and feeling beautiful!


Tip Number 1: Moisturise, Moisturise, Moisturise!

I cannot scream that loud enough. There is nothing worse than holding someone’s hand that is dry and cracked or trying to kiss someone who has rough, dry face.

I know we all have different skin types and textures so my advice is to find a moisturiser that works for you.

This is a rule that goes for women and MEN!

Moisturisers that I suggest using are:

cocoa-butter
This not only does good but it makes your smell amazing!
nivea
This is quite a neutral creme and can work for most skin types!
Slightly more controversial, but Coconut oil is really nourishing for the skin and you can even use it for your hair and obviously in your cooking too!

Tip Number 2: Lovely Luscious Lips

You can get Lovely Luscious lips for a very cheap price from discount stores like Poundland and Wilko and they are perfect pocket-sized lip balms and butters.

nivea-lip-butters

 

Look for a hydrating lipstick. Head to Style Caster to check out the best ones. Or you could just mix your favourite lipstick with a bit of your moisturiser to add that needed moisture.

 

Tip Number 3 (The last tip): Smelling Fabulous!

Make sure you check your new aftershaves and perfumes to make sure they do not irritate your skin. Or if anything, spray it on the outer layer of your clothes wear it will not stain to avoid irritation.

I hope you have a wonderful day!
