There seemed to be an Art Deco thread running through Milan fashion week, most notably at Gucci & Etro. This did not displease me, as those that know me well will know that I have a penchant for anything of this era.
Another thing that pleased me during the Milan collections was the sight of near "normal" models at Luisa Beccaria.
Maybe it's because I'm in holiday mode (I'm imminently heading to Skiathos), but I quite liked the hula girl tropical part of the collection from Blumarine. However I wasn't so keen on the in your face sunflower prints.
Anyway, here are my favourite picks...

I must admit that I've been slightly underwhelmed by the London collections this season. Last time around I felt spoilt for choice when it came to selecting my favourite looks. This week however I found myself almost aimlessly scanning through the catwalk shows. Very few outfits grabbed my attention, but maybe it's just because I'm a Winter girl at heart.
Now let's not get all bah humbug, of course there were some collections that tickled my fancy. In particular, the Nicole Farhi range seemed like a breath of fresh air.
So here are my top picks...
