Jacob Street Re-Launch Party - 05/04/12








Last month, to celebrate the re-launch of Jacob Street's new store on the Lisburn road (beside Bedeck) a wonderful party was thrown! Everyone was welcomed with nibbles and champagne which accompanied beautiful vintage clothing and furniture, not forgetting fine jewellery. I wanted to buy everything! This gorgeous shop is really worth a visit!!

Belfast Fashion Week SS12 - High Street Evening





Belfast Fashion Week returned for its thirteenth season this year and I went along to the High Street catwalk night at the Europa Hotel! Models strutted their stuff down a shimmering pink catwalk headlined by boohoo.com whilst wearing sugar sweet and eye-popping shades. Casual sports luxe with a nod to 'Alabama' from True Romance were current themes throughout the show. To accentuate the outfits ankle socks were provided from 'The Right Tights' whist eyewear from William Morris complemented the looks.

Upcoming Event - The Festival of Colours

Belfast's biggest ever Spring party returns with a show stopping line-up of South Asian food, music, dance and colour! Known across the globe as India's most energetic and vibrant holiday The Festival of Colours or 'Holi' (which translates to 'colour' in Hindi) celebrates the arrival of Spring in a truly spectacular fusion of colour, culture and creativity.

Here is a link to some photos I took back in 2010 of the event when it was at St. George's Market - http://belfastfashion.blogspot.com/2010/03/holi-festival-of-colours-st-georges.html
excited to see this in a bigger venue!

Inspiration and Upcoming Events






Recently been inspired by Mulberry's Spring/Summer 12 campaign shot by Tim Walker featuring models Frida Gustavsson and Lindsey Wixson. I'm loving the fresh pastel tones and seaside nostalgia, it's getting me excited for my first trip to Brighton next week! Looking forward to catching up with friends, trawling through some vintage shops and eating fish n' chips on the pier!

The Rusty Zip now stocks SUPERSUPER magazine so pop in soon for your free copy (normally priced at £2.99.)

Also looking forward to the completion of the new Titanic Museum at the end of March. The building will have 7 floors and feature exhibitions on the Titanic alongside the history of Belfast. It will feature a flying theatre where visitors can be suspended in moving seats over a giant cinema screen. The multi-sensory experience will include a wind machine, audio and moving visuals.
