LONDON FASHION WEEK DAY 1 – FELDER FELDER AND THE APARTMENT
21/09/2015
It’s that time again people – no, not that time – when the fashionista’s (can we just take a moment to gag over how cringe that word is?) of the world come out in full force and all of a sudden, you can’t escape it for love nor money… it’s London fashion week time. Now, I spoke about my thoughts on LFW last season, here, and not much has really changed if I’m honest.
I say this with trepidation because I’m very aware that lots of bloggers don’t get the opportunity to experience fashion week, and I’m grateful that I have the chance to, I really am. I just have to be honest in that it’s not something that I hugely look forward to. Fashion week for a lot of bloggers = running around between shows, blisters on feet and a hell of a lot of waiting outside in the cold because they all want to get snapped by the street style photographers. And there’s nothing wrong with that at all, but it’s just not for me. I like to go to the show/presentation, snap away, get the content and get home to my hot chocolate, PJ’s and boxset of Harvey Specter Suits.
Which is why this season I tried to be ridiculously selective, and rather than traipsing around to the 50bajillion shows I was – very, very luckily – invited to, I would just head to those that I genuinely looked forward to seeing. So what better way to start London Fashion week than with Schwarzkopf Got 2 b, going behind the scenes of the incredible Felder Felder. But first, let me take a selfie the outfit…
Top – ASOS / Culottes – Missguided / Shoes – Dorothy Perkins (last season) / Watch – Daniel Wellington

After checking out The Body Shop’s amazing pampering area at Fashion Scout, we then headed backstage to Felder Felder to discover exactly what went into producing the hair look.
After leaving Fashion Scout, we headed to The Apartment which in short, is a place that I never wanted to leave! Manicures, blow dries, massages, sleep pods – yes you read that right, sleep pods! – not to mention KFC to order and amazing coffee, The Apartment is a place that fashion bloggers can go to refuel, recharge (quite literally #iPhoneProblems) and just chill between shows.
I couldn’t think of a better way to end a busy Day 1 and I knew that I would definitely be heading back there over the next few days.
Right now, I am panicking as a video fails to export, planning tomorrow’s LFW outfit whilst simultaneously running a lush bath and losing my mind. Fashion week is definitely fun, and definitely crazy/busy/stressful/”oh my god, what is my life?”. I’m already looking forward to a day off!
As always, thank you so much for reading. I hope you enjoyed this post!
Your so lucky to be able to go! I think I would be running around going to as much as I can haha! I love your culottes, they're gorgeous and such a statement but still relaxed x
Love those culottes! You're definitely lucky you get to go to fashion week, but I can imagine it's a lot more stressful than people who don't go would think! Amy x http://www.callmeamy.co.uk
Just working at one show sounds so much better than running around cold with blisters! I'm not a 'fashionista' but would love to go to LFW just to say I have been! You look lovely as well, Elle 🙂 xxx
I'm so jealous of your LFW trip 😉 Your outfit is, as usual, on point. I think I've literally started stalking all your outfits now… I'm a bit of a groupie
Those culottes are amazing! They're the perfect example of something that wouldn't shine out to me on the hanger but once on, they're THE.ONE! Love the look of the Apartment, I'm actually heading there later today 😀
I love those culottes (a word that I have literally just come across I would have just called them trousers because I know nothing XD). I don't know if I'd be able to pull them off as well as you!
Love your outfit Elle, you look so chic! Ahh I've heard such good things about The Apartment over the years, hopefully I can stop by if I get to attend the next London Fashion Week. 🙂
I cringe at the word "fashionista" too, don't worry Elle. I actually have no idea the logistics of fashion week but I've got a pretty clear picture now, thanks to you; it sounds so hectic but how does everyone look SO good in the street style photos?!
Anyway, I'm loving your pants! I hope you enjoy the rest of the LFW!
Haha that is the question that I ask, a lot of planning ahead. The people in the street style snaps are usually asked if it's ok to be taken first so you have a moment to compose 🙂
You look so so good Elle! I totally agree with what you said, focus on the shows you enjoy and absorb the experience whilst capturing content – I'll join you with a cup of tea!
Despite all the running around it looks like you're having an amazing time at LFW! I would literally give my right arm to go. I adore this outfit, especially the culottes, I deffo couldn't pull them off though! I loved your London Fashion Week GRWM/Vlog, looking forward to seeing/reading more 🙂
Those bright trousers are amazing, and love your honesty about Fashion Week. Definitely sounds like a better plan being selective and seeing only the shows you really want to!
I can totally imagine how tiring it actually is but I've got to say I am a little bit jealous still 😉 I adore your outfit those culottes are amazing xxx
Great outfit choice, Elle – and whilst I was sad to miss LFW this time due to Bali, like you I'll select the shows carefully next time to avoid waiting outside in the cold and rain 😉
So nice to read your side of Fashion Week & how you like to spend it, compared to everything else out there. I'm not a 'fashonista' at all but would love to go to one of these events for the buzz & mostly for the beauty side of it (haha defiitely never getting invited to one now). The Apartment looks amazing, can I live there & you look beautiful as always x
You looked divine on 1st day of LFW, dear and you're so lucky that you can be in the middle of this fashion event, dear 🙂 What's more, I love Suits too (ah, Harvey is genius, can't wait for the new season!), so I know why you rather be at home than waiting long time in cold for street style photographers 🙂
I'm so with you on this Elle – I chose not to go Saturday/Sunday because I just couldn't face all the rushing about – instead I had a chilled day on Tuesday at the one show I really really wanted to see and then went and got a big bowl of pasta and a hot chocolate and stalked Selfridges!
