Fresh Start

Having done the whole "Blogging" thing before many moons ago ending in getting swiftly bored I have now decided to give it another whack.  The reason for this isn’t because I have nothing to do as anyone that knows me will tell you that this is not the case, It is simply because I thought it was about time I gave my Fans and dear Friends an insight into the World of Nor Lisa.

I don’t want to madly bore everyone with a number of events that have happened to me since Nor Lisa was Born so along with my everyday post I will include what I’ve done on that said day, future events and one past event <3

So I’m beginning with my experience with Belfast Fashion Week this season S/S 2012.
This season was all about the pastels/pales in my option which was bang on trend, so of course being my usual self I decided to go the other way with Brights of course!  The reason for this was because I wanted my collection to stand out from the crowd not to blend in and get lost with everyone else’s plain simple garments.  In saying that it was a very risky move on my behalf, Firstly because it reduced the chance of me being used in trend shoot for media and secondly because I feel especially in Belfast consumers tend to purchase whatever they are told is on trend that season.    Did it pay off you ask? Il  let you decide with my bright yellow clashy printed final piece which follows.......

 

The Following image is a prime example of how my collection stands out from the crowd especially in the media. 

The models as usual were great, in particular I Loved Jenny Curran I really do believe that the girl couldn’t look bad if she tried!  I wouldn’t say I’m an expert on hair and makeup so I won’t go too much into it but for my collection I felt I would have preferred a more clean/fresh look instead of the washed out strange look they went for as it was S/S but I totally understand why they chose it as they tend to make the designers night look more "edgy “compared to the other nights.

The set design and hype leading up to the show was very well put together.  I felt that on the night it was ran very professionally and there was a great buzz from the audience.  I would have liked better seats as my friends and I couldn’t see allot from where we sat but that taught me to book mine early next time. Cathy Martin and her team and the really do know how to put on a good show and I was very well helped and treated this season coming up to the show, So many thanks to all of the team that dealt with me <3 

 And lastly I could go without giving a mention to my partner in crime on the night.  The very talented Uniquely Different Jewellery!  I really felt that their pieces really did set off and complete my garments. Their jewellery is very glamous yet affordable so check them out on the following link.   http://www.facebook.com/MyUniquelyDifferent

 

 Thanks Guys for reading my first new blog post :) feedback on the show, my s/s collection or even on this blog are muchly appreciated <3
