: This is a guest post by Daisy Jeffery, one of our (frankly brilliant)
competition winners. In Mulberry
Bayswater her first-rate role as fashion reporter, Daisy’s been
hitting London’s Oxford Street every day this week to sample the best of High
Street Fashion Week and all the fun it’s offered. Find out how she fared as an
adopted MFL girl when she took on the task this week...While Charlie may have
won the golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, I struck fashion gold
when discovering My Fashion Life would be sending me all over London to cover
High Street Fashion Week.The affordable (and therefore more attractive)
counterpart to the infamous bi-annual fashion week that will hit London on 16th
September, the past few days have seen everything from styling events, parties,
and all the discounts in between. And gaining a front row seat Mulberry
Bayswater Outlet and back-stage pass to the weeks hottest events,
it's safe to say I had the best ticket in town.After kick-starting my week with
an over-coffee briefing by my fabulous well-heeled editor, my first event began
on Tuesday with New Look's styling evening. The Oxford Street store greeted
shoppers with Mulberry Sale Gallo
wine, and every purchase rewarded with a whopping 20% discount and free shopping
bag. Back of house in the VIP area – of course I had a sneak peek – Sara Wilson,
winner of the TV series Style The Nation, was raring to get the party started
with her task to style the crowd.It was later Tuesday evening, however, where
the fun really began, with the Spirit of Fashion designers launching their
latest collections at an invite-only pop-up shop in Seven Dials, Covent Garden.
A mix of the famous and fashionable, guests mingled as they sipped on champagne
and cocktails while admiring the beautiful garments hanging on the rails. Set by
designer outlet developer McArthur Glen with the task to recreate a classic
piece of clothing, each designersucceeded in putting their own spin on timeless,
elegant, garments. While Matthew Miller and Carolyn Massey recreated their
versions of the staple shirt, the favourite of the night, Rachael Barrett,
showcased her simple mini-collection inspired by the school uniform –
reinventing the clothes into classic, wearable items for every occasion.As if
that had not been exciting enough, Wednesday marked the unveiling of the
one-day-only vlogging event in Selfridges. An opportunity for those who either
love the camera, or simply could not wait to get home before gushing about their
latest purchase from Topshop, this was the perfect place to spill! Inside the
candy-cane-coloured booth, shoppers were instructed to talk about their
purchases and style icons, with the winner for ‘best vlog’ earning a grand prize
courtesy of Selfridges.As day turned to night, my editor and I made our way down
the road to John Lewis for the book launch of People Tree founder Safia Minney,
whose new book, Naked Fashion, celebrates not only the growing necessity, but
also the beauty of Fair Trade clothing and the many benefits it can
bring.“People Tree is a community, not just a brand,” she told us. The launch,
which displayed the book sitting among beautiful flowers and clothes from the
company’s line, also hosted Mulberry Outlet
fun, Fair Trade activities, including an organichand massage. The massage,
accompanied by servings of Gallo wine and goodie bags, was enough to put a smile
on every girls face.The highlight of the week, however, had to be Fashion’s
Night Out. The Thursday shopping extravaganza contained all the glitz and
glamour of Hollywood, and it was definitely the British designers who pulled out
all the stops for the once-a-year shopathon. Given the task to work the high-end
stores, I began with champagne at Burberry, won goodie bags at Mulberry, took
pictures with Matthew Williamson, and kicked up my super-high-heels at the
authentic 1970’s roller disco at Rupert Sanderson – and what fun that was!If I
had just one criticism, it would simply be that High Street Fashion Week
couldn’t be Handbag Fashion every week. With the parties, the discounts, and
oh-so-many cocktails, I have only My Fashion Life to thank for this incredible
experience.Psst, you can see Daisy's super-cute vlog at Selfridges here!
