Lani Says

The only actual physical mail we seem to get these days are bills, bills, bills (*sings*can you pay my bills?). So, I was pretty excited when I got a lil package containing goodies from Lindi Kingi Design in the mail box. See that photo above? That’s me, wearing x2 Lindi Kingi necklaces, because a) I’m one of those people who has to wear everything new that I’ve gotten all at once, straight away and b) I’m terribly indecisive and couldn’t choose between the two. I also got THE cutest python skin coin purse. As well as harboring coins, it’s now become the home for lipstick and hair-ties. As it happens, I was checking the site today and noticed Lindi Kingi is now selling on my all time fave store, ASOS. Choice!

It’s been all about the ladies round these parts lately, but I’m here to make amends. Here’s a lil tribute to some of the menswear shown over Fashion Festival week. Something for everyone here I reckon, especially if you’re into camo, smart suits, leather accents, letterman jackets and gingerbread men. Yes, I said gingerbread men, what of it?

The above photo was my favourite moment on the catwalk during Friday’s final show, I think I sighed a little as the model turned to reveal the drop-back of her stunning Liam dress. Friday night’s show easily had the most sex appeal, and not just because it began with models in lingerie. It was more a elegant and dark, brooding sort of sexy, rather than the overt kind. The colour injected into Jimmy D and Zambesi was stunning, the ankle strap heels in Liam caught my eye and, let’s be honest, the fact there were a lot more fellas on the catwalk than previous nights didn’t go unappreciated, but more on them later…

The Thursday and Friday night shows were by far the best of the week. Thursday night definitely had more of a playful vibe, the collections were largely street, with so much I could see myself wearing. I’m all about that Sylvester polka dot playsuit and those Workshop neon sunnies. I’m kinda looking forward to it being cold enough to wear one of those cute grey Huffer beanies too. Actually, it kinda IS cold enough now. Yay?
