Issa Life Style- POCALONDON

Welcome to 5 style worlds inputted into 5 vintage men's jackets, celebrating equality and gender bending. Universal fashion for both sexs embracing individuality and freedom of speech. 

When creating art I'm obsessed with making it mean something. Making everyone who can see it feel something including myself. Looking back on my work always results into me feeling like I did at the time I created the piece. each jacket is individual,  one off and made spontaneously by me. All jackets due to the fact it's only me as the creator and model are all Large men's jackets. This makes them multifunctional as both fitted and oversized pieces that can be worn as dresses, jackets by both men and women. 

 All jackets are waterproof and durable so can be handwashed and are protective in wet weather. 

Each piece is high quality that has been injected with Poca love and energy. This is expressed through bold illustrations and eve bolder words. 

Jackets can be worn alone as dresses or over outfits like jeans in casual and occasional environments. Make a simple outfit more daring or just be 100% rebellious and wear individually for a statement look.

LFW day 2: outfit details

Day 2, lots of shows, lots of outfit choices! I went with this simple baby pink number from Pretty little thing paired with my leather jacket and boots.  After visiting the PLT studios in London I picked up some weather friendly yet on trend key pieces from their new in collection. I knew pocalondon would have to make an appearance somewhere too!

This oversized pink jumper is perfect for day to night; a pair of heeled sock boots from Simmi shoes was all it took to bring the outfit a more glam feel. To edge it up I added my one off custom jacket from pocalondon (which is now available on my depop) and a pastel corset belt to give myself an improved silhouette and on trend feel. 

Makeup kept simple with a natural freckly look, winged sleek makeup liner, bronzed eye and purple lip from Mac cosmetics  

Makeup plus app event for #LFW

We attended the pop up makeup plus event which was so sassy. Rimmel makeup booths, hair stylists and nail art was at the ready including lots of cute things to do like selfie corners and of corse free drinks. Had such a fabulous time coming in between shows to wind down and take some selfies of corse !  

Happy fashion week! View my previous blog post to see all my illustrations from the live catwalk shows!

LFW LIVE - Illustrations /// POCALONDON

My 3 days of fashion week was multitasking mayhem. As a blogger, illustrator and party goer I really juggled everything into the days to get the most out of LFW weekend. As an illustrator and fashion blogger I enjoy doing both but try and stream the content on separate social platforms and collaborate the two all at once. Theres always a lot going on for me at fashion week but I always love every minute of it!

 Here are my complete looks from the runway! (Designers in caption)

LFW Day 1 : outfit details

Today is the second day of fashion week but for me my first. After arriving in London Friday night I was only able to attend an event in the evening; no shows but today is where it started for me. Saturday the 18th, 5 shows and lots of gorgeous fashion. Here is my first official outfit, double denim and illustrative vibes .. come through. 

Today I wore my baby which is of corse @Pocalondon

My plan was to really rock my new brand for the 4 days I'm in London for fashion week, so I whipped up some new pieces last minute. This denim jacket is originally from MissyEmpire and the jeans are Topshop. I love customising my old clothes, making them new and literally putting on my stamp.

Shoes // Missguided  

I wrote some pretty empowing words on these two pieces, I wanted to evoke feminism  and overcoming struggles but in a light hearted sense. My work is always so spontaneous and effortless as Pocalondon is raw and energetic so everything is done on impulse from a feeling or an idea.

Enjoy the rest of your fashion week peoples,

and if you're not part of the events or shows  then no worries you can still be part of fashion week in spirit.
