The Stylefix team is feeling the cold this Friday, well the cold shoulder anyway; we’re actually dying in the (above average for Manchester) heat! This season, take cues from our girls in the know and flash your flesh in the coolest way possible. Extra points if you add Latin flavour with a frill or flounce.

Wanna mesh with me? This body is EVERYTHING, not only is it an off the hook shoulder shower, it has a killer printed frill and comes in sheer mesh for the badass finish I cannot dress without. I’m rocking mine with upholstery accessories – a velvet choker and tassel earrings.
Today officially marks Kanye aka Yeezus’ 39th birthday. Aside from the fact he has some pretty kick a$$ songs, an adorbs offspring AND a wife who has broken the internet more times than you have broken your finger nail, we also know him for his famous egotistical side… which let’s face it, keeps us pretty damn entertained. Yep, I’m talking about his self comparison to God and his 2020 plans to become the future president of America.
Need a confidence boost? Or even just a hump-day LOL? Take a leaf out of ‘Yey’s book with a run down of his most brilliant quotes (and of course questionable).
1. “My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.”
Another day another set of stylish street fashion we just can’t get enough of thanks to the fab snapping of photographer David Nyanzi. Get inspired by how the GFW do and get their look for less…

Today marks Tanya Burr’s birthday and we’re not gonna lie, we get life envy all day errrryday. So we’re looking at all of the times she gave us goals
Whether you fancy yourself as a photographer or want to go fashion full-time, nobody got anywhere without working for it so we put it to our panel of professionals to get their top tips on making it in the industry. Notepads at the ready…
Ella Masters – Illustrator
Always be prepared to work hard, you will have to do a lot of work behind the scenes. Be kind to yourself, you’ll probably get a lot of rejections so have faith in yourself and believe in your abilities. I always tell people to get into blogging and Instagram and use them to boost your creativity so clients can see your style and work – it’s free so everyone should!
Victoria Adamson – Photographer
Be prepared to work hard and don’t give up when knock backs come along. Networking is also key in this industry.
Jack Doheny – llustrator
This is actually a funny one for me to answer as I am still on the road to success myself and have goals I want to reach. However, what I would say is persistence and patience is everything. Once you have success keep producing and promoting yourself as nothing is guaranteed. Just do what you love and it will show, you will get noticed.
Sophie Hannah Richardson – Blogger
Keep at it. Whatever you want to go into don’t leave your dream behind. You might have to take a few different routes to get somewhere but you will.
David Nyanzi – Street Style Photographer
Just do what you’re passionate about. The money will surely follow.
Day three and today we were wowed by the super talented Jack Doheny. Jack joined boohoo for a day of live drawings of GFW and did not disappoint. Get inspired and find out more about him in our round up below!

After months of planning, we finally hit London today for Graduate Fashion Week. Celebrating its 25th year, GFW is the UK’s most exciting platform for emerging talent and we are buzzing to be one of the show’s official sponsors.
It’s got a hella place in my heart, I showed my own robot themed graduate collection here TEN years ago this June (please don’t use this information against me and calculate my age). I’ll be here all week to give you an inside look and I promise to bring you the highs, lows and even the outtakes of the event.
5.30am Alarm Bells
I may be a London girl at heart but boohoo HQ is based in Manchester so it was an early morning powered by a serious amount of coffee and good vibes. Obviously terrified I was going to miss my alarm, unable to come out of Tom Hardy sponsored slumber, I spent most of the night wide awake considering everything that could go wrong the following day.
10 am Quick Change
SO the expectation Vs reality of life in fashion is widely discussed, but really, if you think it’s all almond milk lattes and an endless stream of free sh*t, think again. Before heading to the Brick Lane venue, me and four work BFFs crammed into the one room that was ready for check in to do a quick change and refresh. Embarrassingly the size of my bag caused one of the girls to ask if I was moving back to London. I just like to be prepared people.
