So another year has come and gone… And how unbelievably quickly too! Is it just me, or does it seem as though Fashion Week finished about two days ago yet now it’s time to start booking flights (eek) and planning outfits (double eek) all over again. 2012 has been a pretty awesome year and at the risk of sounding like a character from a Disney Channel show, I feel incredibly grateful for all the fantastic experiences I’ve had an opportunities I’ve been given. Before we launch full pelt into 2013 (bring on the Vuitton inspired optical stripes!) I thought it might be nice to have a look back through some of my fave fashion moments over the course of the year… Well that, and the fact that I’m still recovering from Christmas over-indulgence and running low on post ideas.

From my Italian travels with Gucci to partying on the roof of Selfridges with Karl Lagerfeld to attending the Alexander Wang show during New York Fashion Week, none of these fabulous things would have happened without my lovely readers so I really just want to say thank you and wish you all a very Happy New Year!

Love Ella. X
