While I might not be able to afford the real deal in the form of a Burberry trench SS10 or the Trompe L'oeil seen at Commes des Garçons AW09....
I can pretend and wear this fun Tromple L'oeil trench dress for Oasis by LCF undergrad, Rosalind Keep instead. Seeing as I work at the store part time, I couldn't say no to this when it came to choosing my 'work uniform', how could I resist? Susie has also been spotted wearing this dress and of course, wears it in a way that only Susie knows how. I decided to pair it with my new coral cardigan and the little hearts really worked with the fun element!


Cardi (TOPSHOP) T-shirt dress (Rosalind Keep for Oasis), Hair Bow (Internacionale) Shoes (Topshop)
So, I started a week of my new lectures, one of which was a class on E-marketing. It couldn't have been any more perfect. The lecture was on ASOS, Twitter and Facebook and the lecturer did a quick google search and we had The Sartorialist on the lecture screen! It was so interesting to be learning about something that we're already part of and to see the outsiders viewpoint. As bloggers, we've had to teach ourselves so much and it's very much still a learning curve. It's such an interesting time to be a blogger seeing as there are more and more opportunities becoming avaliable, with some bloggers reaching incredible new highs. I'm beginning to think that my dissertation should be on fashion and social media! Will be strange writing about something that is so relevant for once!

I love your 'trench' dress. So cute *lol*
ReplyDeleteTrench coats are so win in the rain. I have two and they are starting to get old. so sad
Amazing dress! And so similar to the one in the fashion show.
ReplyDeleteI find it incredible how quickly blogs and online media has become relevant. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's noticed that in probably the last year, the amount of press releases and interest in online presence has increased. I wanted to do a dissertation on fashion law for my GDL but sadly there wasn't quite enough to write about. One day...
I want your dress, its amazing.

I love the Oasis dress amazing.

ReplyDeleteAs for e-marketing lectures, etc. I totally agree-- as bloggers we've learned so many things ourselves. I'd love to read your paper :)
I so love the T-shirt dress. And cute cardi too..I heard on the news recently that many of the some fashion magazines are looking to "real" people to show off their photo-shoots in fashion. Perhaps bloggers have had a lot to do with that phase.
ReplyDeletesounds like you'll have a lot of fun with that class. A fun and so cool out fit. all the best with class.
ReplyDeleteYour class sounds amazing! What a trip it must have been to see The Sartorialist just on a gigantic screen like that. Love your outfit too, the colors are great

What an amazing work uniform. I love the dress and it looks so fun to wear. I really like the cardigan and it is a perfect choice to wear with the dress. The colours are very complementary.
