I missed y'all :D

Hey everyonee! Well this is a super speedy post, because this blog will fizzle out into extinction if I don't post soon. I'm actually meant to be revising (MEHEHEH PROCRASTINATION) so this is something to get my mind of it heheh.
I shall link, so you can scroll at your luxury, because the shows i'm showcasing, are the highlights of the season, in my opinion.
Okay.. DAVID KOMA HAS A NEW SHOW SPDFOIFPSLDKFJIOFPLSDFKJHSAFIOASDLAFKJFH. You do not realize how much it made my day when I heard. I was like, having a spazz attack, because as we all know, David Koma is my God.
Koma's show 14. Love love love. The thing I love about him is that I can actually visualize me, and others, wearing his designs, and many celebs do, Cheryl Cole, BeyoncĂ©, Rihanna. Also, they're very easily accessible, he had a range for Topshop. The texture and colour contrasts, and the variety, but you can so easily tell that they're from the same season.
OLIVIER THEYSKENS.  I loveeeee his designs! The delishhh monotones, the gorgeous variety. MMMM.
Alexis Mabille, wow I love this show! It's quite literally a classic, nothing else to describe it. The outfits are EFFORTLESSLY sleek, and my GOD the shapes.
Revision beckons, goodbye my lovelies <3

Hello Dahlings (Chinese Accent)

Hey my beautiess, how are you all? SO sorry to have not written in so long, I've ACTUALLY been busy :D Hope you've all been well, if not E-MAIL ME BABABAAYY, anyway lets get stuck in,
SOME HAWT SHOWS.
Albino 2011 Fall RTW :) HAHA HIS NAMES ALBINO, love <3
I like this because of the textures, and the colour blend, I mean come on guys, that top is FURRY!
Again, textures! I think textures make fashion amazing, and i would so do the GCSE if we were given the option :(
This is like, all mousy on the outside, then you have the little flash of the amazing colours inside, and is that silk!?
Simplicity is greatness.
"I'm just, ya know, casually naked under this nearly see through dress, no biggie..."

Albino D'Amato!
Mark Fast RTW - I was a bit disappointed with his models, SO skinny. And I really didn't like much of his show, as the black material just HUNG there.
I love this, I mean it's so original, just so new! Who would have thought of massive furry shoulder pads, except for maybe Lady Gaga ;)
The intricate lacing on this makes it so hot, and the layering means you won't be cold.
Nina Ricci RTW - lovely, but some funeral undertones!
Okay this is gonna sound bad, but this is so funeral chic. Okay i shouldn't have said that, but come on, okay someones died, but you gotta look hot ;) I absolutely love the shaping.

I really don't know about this piece, it screams EW, but the elegance and the curves of the model make it bearable.
GLITTTTEEERRR. It has a glamourized air to it, and you can kind of see well-known cuts in there, but it's blocked out by the colours.
Okay fine, i have to say it. FUNERAL CHIC, yeah i said it, and whaat ;) I think it's hot okay!
Cinderella!
Peter Copping!
Check out this show: Betty Jackson!
And this!: LANNVVIIIN
Now I was debating over which last show to pick, as I have to do my homework before Scouts (!!) so I decided to go for a classic to hook y'all in before my high-street post,
BETSEY JOHNSON BABEEY



Okay I'm back, and I am speechless. Been through the Johnson show and BOY does she know how to design! I literally can't limit it down to max 10 pics, so heres the link again, BETSEY. Click me.
SHE IS AMAZING<33333
I hope you all have a nice evening, another post soon hunn! I love you all for the support,

LBD

Hello my beautiful readers. I know, I know you're suprised that i'm doing another post SO soon, its not like me at all I do admit ;) But i've had a special request from my friend Conky to find her a black dress, short, for the busty, and under 40 pounds. Now as you all should know, I always accept challenges, and this is a wiidee topic, so yeah =) Have fun reading!
Urban Outfitters Sessun blah di blah - I really love this! For the extremely busty, it minimizes the boob size, and its good if you're curvy, as this is quite shapless, so moulds to your curves. 

Urban Outfitters MM2 Colour block dress (or something like that ;) ) I know this isn't completely black, but its so slimming!! Gotta love it.

Topshop - Motel: Bengal Christine Dress - RAAAWWWWWRRR. I love this, it really showcases the cleavage, make sure to wear with a plunge bra though! 
American Apparel - A classic. Accessorize with gold studded heels and bling and you're good to go.

Again, a classic. Good in the summer in a bright femenine colour, or now for a minxy look.

American Apparel - This really showcases the boobs. Many people make the mistake of wearing a necklace with this... don't. The chest area is elaborate on purpose you know!
Zara - Satin Dress. I'M IN LOVE. I want this dress SO bad. It makes your legs look way longer too, just for the record.

Zara - Draped Dress:  I love how the tights and boots go with the dress. SUCH a grungy effect. 
So I hope i helped you Conky, and helped anyone else who needed it !

High street (and a sneaky bit of catwalk)

HELLO, HELLO, HELLO MY LOVELIES =) Noww before i get on to the good stuff, few contact details
E-Mail: shrish.dublet@gmail.com
Formspring : http://www.formspring.me/shrishdubz
Twitter: @shrishdubz
So yeah thats if you ever need to contact me, or ask me something, because i know some of you are annoyed i don't have a comments page, i'm not good with blogspot, sorry!

NOWWW LETS GET INTO THE GOOD STUFF,
Now i know all of you are quite annoyed i don't do that much high street anymore, THIS WILL ALL CHANGE, but I just HAVE to fit in a designer collection, a new designer... DAVID KOMA. Remember this name, live by this name, love this name, worship this name.
It's early days still, but JUST LOOK at the below!
In my opinion, this is the best piece of the collection. This piece is so perfectly symmetrical, and it could be slutty if it was in different colours, but it's kept demure with the high neckline.

Casual Sophistication.

Gotta say, not a fan of this bony look, but as the first picture was so symmetrical, this is not. ITS SUCH A DRASTIC CHANGE, i LAALALLAALAAV IT! 

Ballerinaaa.

This really gives curves, this woman is not very curvy (BUT MY OH MY SHES GORGEOUS :O ) and this really gives the impression of curves.

You know the Zagliani bag I posted a few posts back? I love this, as much as this. YES THAT MUCH.. Not to sure about the suspension between the neck and post-chest, but, what can i say ;)

THE MAN HIMSELF. This is the man i will marry :'D
Now enough about the great Koma, let us move on to some HIGH STREEEEET.

So one of the big trends noww. DENIIIIMMM. Well obviously you ALL own a pair of jeans right...RIGHHTTT?! If not, be ashamed! What do you go out in, lederhosen?! So I'm assuming all of you have that trend done, to be honest I think denim and denim together looks rather naff, so I won't elaborate on thaaaat one... ;)

Smart Sportswear, so this is quite an easy one, find a few good pieces below =)
BLUSH APPLIQUE blaah - Topshop, i actually really like this, but it looks a bit pathetico  like that, but with the sleeves rolled up, and either a black bodycon skirt with the below socks, will make it look great :D
ASOS - Wear with the above, and the skirts colour plaette looks quite good with the cardie and the socks, YAY FOR CO-ORDINATION :D
PAULS BOUTIQUE - You must be thinking "WTF HOW IS THIS IN ANYWAY SPORTY." But it just reminds me of horse riding, and it could make a more developed, posh, sporty look :D Espesh with knee-high socks...BUT NOT WITH JODPHURS, you could get some comments like "Where's the horse" ;)
I'd like to tell you all the colours that are in now, so you don't wear a colour like red *shakes head*
-Neon colours
Cyberdog in Camden is a good place to get neon clothing, but its a bit dodgy, if ya know what i mean ;)
American Apparel
-White
YESSSS! You get to wear GORGEOUS THINGS like,
Topshop- Absolutely shapeless. BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Sharpen with a blazer, or just wear with  black PLAIN tights (not double lace, PLEASE) and a flower hair band!
Doc Martens @ Urban Outfitters- Roughen up any outfit, but in a diff way =)
-Orange
Can't say I really like this trend tbh... :(

NOW let's move on to accessories. Kooky, quirky little pieces are wanted now, they're SO hot, all those little pieces you picked up at Camden Market because they were "cool" in year 7? Now's the time.
Junkie Lovers - This is SO Cute. Wear it with layers, and it will look fabb.

Junkie Lovers-This is GORGEOUS, anyone wanna buy it for me ? ;)

Junkie Lovers- This will quirk up any outfit, please don't team with a plain outfit though, this necklace was MADE to clash.


Junkie Lovers - HAHAHA DON'T YOU LOVE IT? But please, do NOT try to play with it ;)
All of the above are from Junkie Lovers! , really worth taking a look!
and Heidi Seeker! as well :)

Also want to say, if an outfit is looking plain, use a skinny belt, as they are SO Hot right now, just remember you heard it here first ;)

I hope this long post has satiated the insatiable, have fun reading!
I laav you all,
Shrish xxxxxxxx

Sorry for the delayy

Hey everyone :) To all of you formspringers out there, thank you for reminding me to do this, and to everyone who doesn't know, my formspring is Http://formspring.me/shrishdubz
I THINK ;) so fs me for advice, or e-mail me shrish.dublet@gmail.com
now i've got all the usual deal out the way, whereever shall we start :O LETS HAVE SOME CATWALK BAAYBEE :D
Spring RTW's are coming out already, so to brighten up these blergh days, lets have a bitta SPRING
Andrew Gn:
Theres Alexandarsson- I like this piece alot, but what I strongly dislike is how Andrew's style has changed, there are some Spanish influences on this piece. Yeah don't ask why my font just got bigger, i don't know either O.o anyway, i like the flow-ishness, and i've done some research and i believe those are Louboutin's she's wearing :O
Liu Wen ( I think!) -I put this picture up purely to demonstrate how terrible this piece is. What the hell was he thinking, i think the jacket thing is absolutely divine, but with the dress/skirt underneath?! It looks ridiculous, she looks like a refugee, this is a note to all designers, DO NOT MIX TIGHT AND LACY WITH FLOWY AND SATINY.  
THis is SO obviously Spanish. Also, if you look back on Andrew's older seasons you will realize how much his designing has changed. 
I was going to include Altuzarra and Calvin Klein, but Altuzarra is just BIZARRE (this seasons) even though he is just starting out, BLERGH. and Calvin Klein's attempt at being minimalist and using virgin, angelic colours just didn't work, as the cuts of the pieces were NOT good.
I also recommend you check out: Zero + Maria Conejo because the models look SO striking, not nice pieces, but the models :O

Imitation:
I can imagine myself wearing this, and believe you me, that is DIFFICULT to say with Catwalk fashion.  I would wear this to a summer picnic or a barbeque, wouldn't you?

This is such a simple piece, but I think that the shoulders give it dramatic effect, and since this model has quite a shapeless body, it gives some definiton to it

This is SO flirty. I really like how at first you think the woman's naked except for the lace, and then you see that its a different shade to her skin. I think any woman who wears this has a minx-y air about them. 
FAIIRRRYYY. I can imagine a fairy wearing this, and i forgot to mention, i really like the way all of them are barefoot because it adds a mystical surreal air to the whole show.
Anyway stayy tuned for high street fashion, coming soon!
Love you all<3 mwaaahh xxx
