What I Wore Wednesday: House of Fraser SS14 Preview

I was lucky enough to get invited to House of Fraser's Spring/Summer 2014 preview earlier this month at the gorgeous Kibble Palace in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens.  Kibble Palace is a giant glass greenhouse (that description doesn't do it justice) and it was transformed into the most amazing fashion space for us that evening.

Kibble Palace was bathed in pink light, with giant paper flowers displays to compliment the botanical surroundings. Key looks and bags were on display and didn't look out of place next to a giant koi pond and statue of Venus. I'd never been to a fashion preview in a greenhouse before but it made perfect sense to preview the likes of  Maxmara, McQ, Acne and Linea.






Of course wandering around I fell in love with a ridiculously amazing Louboutin bag (damn my expensive taste) that would cost me at least a month's wages if not more. Knowing I'd be certain to drop said bag in a puddle the second I bought it I just lusted from afar.

Some this season's trends are not for me. I'm not someone who will bare her midriff (y'all don't want to see the c-section muffin top combo) and sheer panel skirts just aren't my thing. However I feel head over heels in love with their biker chic look by Armani Jeans and Levi. And who doesn't love Breton stripes?

Casual chic biker--who knew? I like to think I'm vaguely edgy so it really is no surprise that I was drawn to an amazing leather jacket and the perfect jeans. I've been in a bit of a style funk of late evidenced by my outfit for the event below. I felt woefully underdressed and unhip in last year's studded sweater and jeans but I've just lost inspiration of late.

It is still pretty cold here in Glasgow so I think I'm just not thinking Spring yet but hopefully as we move into March I'll get more of my spring trend on!

What spring trends are you most looking forward to?
