I love mixed-up patterns and all things fun. Peter Pilotto, Custo Barcelona and Kenzo spring summer 2013 are the first to jump excitedly into my mind and all of which I adored from first sight. I respect people who can brave the boldness and wear something that will brightly stand out as it's refreshing to see when mostly surrounded by people who are dressed homogenised and uncharacteristically.

When speaking of all things sprightly, colourful and calling for attention, I feel it's about time I featured rising shoe designer Sophia Webster on my blog. I came across her spring summer 2013 collection back in September and, with her creations showcased in giant box packaging with models inside playing the role of life-size Barbie dolls, I was immediately hooked. Now she's beginning to receive the much adored attention she deserves and, whether it's the delicious pastels, pop arty neons, tribal influences or knee-high wonders which transform legs into works of art, if you have not yet heard of Sophia take this moment to let your shoe fetish meet its new obsession.

Meet Shi Jen Huang. Her inspiration derives from small events in her life, such as accidental encounters, a good conversation or sentences from books. She launched her self-titled label, Shi Jen, in 2011 after graduating from Ghent fashion academy KASK in 2007. I like her. Maybe you'll like her too.(Source)

As you probably know, I love galaxy prints which is why the latter of this selection of pictures from Shi Jen's Spring Summer 2013 collection immediately grabbed my attention. Re-looking over it though and it's a young girl's fantasy put into clothing- unicorns gliding through a perfect setting of rainbows and happiness, it's enchanting and colourful. In comparison to the Taiwanese designer's Autumn Winter collection (white, greys, plum and black et cetera in long warm coats, floaty silks, soft wools and reference to Christian iconography) it really does seem like a journey to a different universe. With such diversity, though, it does leave me excited about what we can expect in the future from this new-to-the-scene designer...
