Emerging Fervour

Everyone is gearing up for this month’s London Fashion Week. The designers are making the finishing touches to their collection, the exhibitors are making sure they have enough marketing material and business cards to hand out, the buyers are finalising their ‘who to see’ plan and the bloggers are scheduling their weeks in the run up to, through and past fashion week.

With so much to cover your first port of call must be exploring the designer exhibitions at Somerset House and the ON|OFF Section at Victoria House. Back in September, we covered BodyAmr, Kron by KronKron, Beekay, Beautiful Soul, Rachael Cassar, Rocio Bags and a few others from the exhibitions and this season we’re planning on covering a lot more!

You can also check out all the things to do in between shows with the London Fashion Week City Guide A/W 10. In fact, LFW along with Red Maps have provided us with maps that are available on site, you can also open a pdf and print it out, just visit the map page on the LFW site.

As soon as I clocked the Rocio stand at London Fashion Week it was obvious that Rocio were so much more than handbag designers…

They are fantastic aren’t they?

This amazing label is quickly picking up recognition in the world of international handbag design and fashion, despite it only being around since May 2006. Rocio’s handbags and clutches are handmade from harvested Acacia wood meaning that any eco-friendly fashionista should not be without one. And with animal prints and block colours being on the forefront of our trend list, I already know what’s on my wish list.

To check out the rest of Rocio’s colourful collection, you can visit the Rocio website and if you fancy it – Rocio sell online so you can go to the online boutique section of the site to buy. Prices are around the £300 so what are you waiting for?
