THREE LONDON FASHION WEEK THEME THINGS TO DO THIS WEEKEND

Posted by Bethan Holt, Junior Fashion Editor at Large

Boohoo LFW is over but hurray it's the weekend! While we might all have been making mental check lists for what we need to buy for AW13, there's plenty to get on board with right now, this weekend in fact. Here are three things to roll up your sleeves and get stuck into this weekend and you'll be oh-so AW13 by Monday:

1. GET RAINBOW HAIR

So colourful hair is nothing new but there's a totally fresh and bold way to do it, courtesy of the most memorable model of LFW, Chloe Norgaard. Her multi-coloured look makes pink hair seem boring. Clash, match, layer do whatever. I quite fancy an aubergine/ lilac combo myself... see this selection . Chloe uses semi-permanent colour-jamz and Manic Panic for the green bits. And have a peak at Chloe's Tumblr.

2. RIP YOUR JEANS

Not so much a catwalk trend but practically every single usually polished and preened fashion editor did ripped jeans at LFW, some with spiky stilettos, others with Celine-y Vans. For a properly authentic look, rip your own. Follow this video guide...



3. GEM UP A CLUTCH

Mawi's giant gem clutch bags (a new venture which they began for SS13) were a huge hit at the LFW exhibition and have already popped up in a few street style pics and adoring blog posts. Find a tired clutch, buy in a load of cheap as chips plastic jewels and some glue and get your own fancy bag thing going on.
