C'est la vie

I'm emotionally exhausted from packing up all my belongings and unpacking them again.

I'm sick of departure lounges and check out stands, sick out the sinking feeling you get when taking off, sick of boarding planes, trains and coaches, sick of having to say goodbye, sick of change, sick of feeling homesick and sick of having to leave places and people I got to know and got attached to.

I know it's something I have to do as it's a future investment and it's the right thing to do, but at the moment it means having to say goodbye to my family and friends, it means waking up and not being used to the the bed you woke up in. It means feeling lonely despite not actually being alone, feeling emotionally lost and completely exhausted.

I know it will all pay off but right now I'm tired. I want to sleep in my bed at home and I don't want to leave it any time soon.

The irony, however, is that in less than 48 hours I'll be doing exactly that - packing up my shit and boarding another plane. C'est la vie.

Christopher Kane Ready-To-Wear S/S '12

I like Christopher Kane, I think he's great and I've had a soft spot for his creations ever since he launched the collection with galaxy prints. His yesterday's show didn't disappoint either. I have to admit, I'm not a fan of the shoes and I don't really like the length on some of the skirts but the embellishments are magical. So are the origami-like cuts on shirts, dresses and coats. And speaking of shirts, from what I've seen so far, this London Fashion week is quite big on shirts, mostly buttoned up all the way to the top. They makes my knees go weak and my eyes sparkle with materialistic lust.
Below are my favourite pieces from the show.
According to Vogue's report some people left the show in tears. Christopher Kane, what are you like.

Dear guys and dolls
