Day 2 of LFW was always going to be one to excite and ignite the fashion lovers of London due to its exciting line up. Kicking things off was one of my favourite designers, Holly Fulton. With the 60s as her inspiration, Fulton created beautiful apparel that was more wearable than any of her previous collections. With roses being the flower of choice, the collection was full of ankle grazing patterned trousers, 60s dresses and beautiful cut out paneling. The femininity in these designs really appealed to me and this teaming with the delightful and delicate pastels made this collection a dreamy one.

Another beauty from day 2 was Issa London. This show was beauty personified, filled with bright, bold and floral patterns that jumped out at you as the walked down the catwalk. With toucans being a prominent and intricate pattern in the designs, the bright yellows, greens and reds echo themes of the exotic. The designs were gracefully elegant with nipped in waists and beautifully low neck lines.

Day 3 Shows featured the effortlessly elegant Temperley London who's designs were the epitome of art and fashion. Beautiful 50s cuts and bold oranges were the centre of Alice's SS13 collection, a long distance from her previous heavy and dark AW12. I loved the intricate designs on some of their designs as they still managed to remain flirty and fun. Teamed with some vintage sunnies, Alice managed to create a collection that could add glamour to any beach setting. In a contrast to their bright and bold orange, Temperley dabbled in gorgeous duck egg blue and crisp white. Simple yet beautiful patterns were paired up with nipped in waists and flowing 50s gowns. Definitely one of my favourites of this season's catwalks.

For those who follow me on twitter, you know that I love Mary Katranzou. I fell in love with her last season and even more so when she collaborated with Topshop. Her prints are always alarmingly bold, bright and beautiful and they add a certain edge to any outfit. With narrow trousers featuring in this season's collection, as well as confident A-lines, halternecks and wide sleeved collared shirts, Mary managed to uplift the basic of designs by adding a certain detailing to the design. The dress were wide sleeved and breezy and very prominent in this season's collection. Her prints? postal stamps, exotic birds and flowers; all clearly derived from travel inspiration. I'm already looking forward to neck season! Oh, and check out the contrasting metallics!
