Street Style: a few photos from day one at the London Fashion Week SS12

Here is a selection of photos I took on the first day – some of them are good friends of mine and you will get to see what I wore. I must confess I felt uncomfortable wearing the outfit I chose on the day for the first 30 minutes. So many people were staring and taking photos and it was a little overwhelming at first. After a little time had passed, I grew accustomed to the situation and felt relaxed.

I met so many blogger friends, including some I had never quite met in person before, and this was one of several highlights of London Fashion Week for me. There were so many, many photographers from so many countries stretching from Brazil, all the way to Japan. You had people pouring in wearing the most spectacular outfits, the photographers following them and then a huge crowd of people who were just there to watch it all from a distance. So much energy moving about, and an air of excitement spreading all around the court of Somerset House. The feeling was intense but wonderful. Enjoy the photos!

Can you believe Shini and I ended up wearing the SAME jumper? Exactly the same brand, colour and from the same collection? We both had a good laugh! Thanks to Kit Lee for taking this excellent photo using my camera.

The yellow heart on my jumper was given to me as a gift from Elizabeth Lau. I had promised her I would wear it, and I did! :]

This one with Kit makes me laugh too. I had NO IDEA she was posing like that until I had checked the photos later that day! So funny! Shini took this really good photo, and I thank her for it.

I am glad you did Susie! I felt SO self-conscious and horrified wearing all those bright clothes in the morning, haha. Was embarrassed!
