LFW: Outfit day 3 – flats and fries.
By day three of London Fashion Week my personal style went out the window. My feet were blistered and embarrassingly swollen to the point I could barely squeeze them into a pair of converse. This flip flop wearing girl is seriously not cut out for eleven hour days in sky high heels. I’d like to say lesson learnt, but chances are I’d do the same thing again. I was no longer bothered about what I wore and as a way of sticking it to the Man I opted for all black topped off with converse and a low bun. After the first show of the day we went for breakfast in Covent Garden only to discover most places have move onto lunch by noon. Unfortunately I was in no state for soups or sandwiches so broke the cardinal rule of fashion week and scoffed down a bowl of fries. Bloated belly in a body con dress? Oh well. Instead of being sunny like the day before the air was icy cold all day. Shame, another attempt gone awry. My bare legs were literally quivering when Jill offered me her mom’s buttery driving jacket to wear. Bless her, it saved the day.
Wearing: jacket borrowed from Jill, H&M dress and thrifted long black blazer both borrowed from Daniella, and converse (not seen).
Aww hun! I won’t tell anyone about your fries if you don’t tell anyone my steady pizza/pasta fest happening post LFW every night
Can’t be good, but it’s quick and easy after these long days. I am with you on the flats as of today – to the tipping point (almost literally) on day two of my wedges, so back in flats today. Will message you!

I learnt my lesson quite a long ago and since then I haven’t bought sky high heels. xxx
Jen you need Compeed plasters they literally make it like the blisters disappeared! x
Oh I’m so with you! Is it a cardinal sin to say ‘I just can’t be bothered to dress up’, I’d rather sit and watch everyone else with a latte!! x
You have such lovely smile Jen ;P Yesterday I survived on a small pot of raspberry fruit jelly from Prets…yeah what a diet huh?!
Jen you looks so happy my face is a complete mess if my feet are killing me!
Thanks for the smile you gave me with this article. Cheer up!

Lovely pics, Jen – and flats and fries sound like perfection! It was great to meet you at LFW. Hope you had a good one. I found it all quite overwhelming but really enjoyable too. Can’t wait for the next one now! xx
