London Fashion Week kicked off this morning on what the weather girl promised to be a gloomy day. Actually, it’s rather hot sunny, and I’m at risk of overheating. Great.

You might think I’d begin the first day of fashion processions with a bang, but in fact, I’m doing quite the opposite (I do like to ease myself in gently).

Today I’m wearing my boyfriend’s H&M T-shirt (let’s hope he doesn’t mind) tucked into a pair of Kristen high-waist black skinnies from Topshop, a vintage grey wool blazer, Falke socks (so silky!) and nude snake wedges from TK Maxx (not that you can see the latter. Sorry).

And for a bit of bling, my rose gold Guess watch, Me & Zena rabbit ring and Alex Monroe pair necklace do the job.

Today started, as always, with London opener Paul Costelloe and ends with PPQ – it’s a long old haul, but stay tuned for our show reviews to come.

NB: This picture was taken on the go, just after I had my hair done at the Toni & Guy blow out bar (hence the horribly blurry Blackberry shot – please don’t expect it to be this well-groomed everyday.
