mr Styles UltrA AAA: (coos, breathlessly)... a gift! That London Fashion Week biker jacket looks like a gift; an emotive thing. it needs no vote to win.

That person - who bought you this, er, Miss Universe creation, CRAZE, this treasure, my, erm pleasure; this measure, of perfection. Oh yes...I am consumed with infatuation for this sartorial reflection.

mr Styles UltrA AAA: (rhapsodises breathkessly) mr Styles UltrA AAA: (rhapsodises breathkessly) Such Excellence! I just wanna say that your London #FashionWeek outfit looks SUPER amazing and so inspiring...I'm so in love, with this EXPRESSIVE, tasteful look; this delicious aesthetic. This, er, deity, is a dainty star like my #fedora repertoire, the mystic moon; it's everything to make one swoon. I'm super picky, however, drooling over each precious element in this outfit is far from tricky. The most creative fashionista rocks the best clothes, the dream style. Dream is possible. I MUST propose. PLEASE, I want those

http://sidewalknarratives.blogspot.com
ALISHA: Thank you

mr Styles UltrA AAA: You're welcome. I'm HIGHLY charged, super intrigued to discover the inspiration behind the elements and the styling you are rocking in this attire.

ALISHA: Erm, I always wanted to wear what I am wearing but erm...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: (Interrupts abruptly)...Alisha, your voice is a winning choice; so soft and delicate, it's spice...

ALISHA: (smiles)

mr Styles UltrA AAA: ...and innocent and inherently angelic...

ALISHA: (she beams)

mr Styles UltrA AAA: ...And we love it, perpetually. However, we would appreciate a little more volume to it, because you know the street is inherentlyy noisy

ALISHA: Okay

mr Styles UltrA AAA: SO what was your inspiration for this marvellous style you are showcasing today?

ALISHA: Mainly the autumn, autumnal colours; red and green. My hair is still orange...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: ...Like a fedora, the trend is orange, always

ALISHA: So this will be the last time that my hair will be this colour

mr Styles UltrA AAA: It's AMAZING though. I LIKE it, enormously. As you can see, I am rocking ORANGE also (fedora from Alibaba, Sweater by New Look)

ALISHA: (playfully) Matching!

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Yes. Completely! How do you define your personal style? How do you like to dress on a day to day basis?

ALISHA: This is more day to day.

mr Styles UltrA AAA: It blows me away. Oh, this is your signature aesthetic?

ALISHA: Yes.

mr Styles UltrA AAA: What can I say! I LOVE it. It's, er, aesthetically pleasing. This Miss Universe design touches me, immensley. I would like to know what fashion brands you are rocking. So if you simply touch the individual elements and say what Fashion House, it's from, that would be super, er...

Mr Elgiganten: ...NICE?

mr Styles UltrA AAA:...Appreciative! Do not attempt to put words in my mouth.

ALISHA: I start from my shoes...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: (teases) Well, if you were rocking a fedora, you would have to start with it FIRST...Kidding. YOU, could start with whatever element, you prefer.

ALISHA: ...It's from Underground...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: ...Oh my! Look at what I just found! Those STRIKING footwear have swept me off my feet, enormously. They are worth their weight in gold. Infact, they are worth much more than gold, you know. I know that Underground shop, you know. By the way, their shoes are, er,

Mr Elgiganten:...Nice?

mr Styles UltrA AAA: ..(ignores word suggestion) .TREMENDOUS! Super audacious! You'll NEVER succeed in putting words in my mouth.

ALISHA: My bag is Adidas

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Oh my gosh. Accessories like that is AMAZING. Completely. Yes!

ALISHA: My skirt and jumper are both from H&M

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Such Excellence! I LOVE the colour of that jumper. That's super amazing.

ALISHA: Thank you

mr Styles UltrA AAA: I rocked a jumper like that yesterday, you know. Same colour. Same silhouette. Same design! Oh my gosh! (rhetorically) What's happening here?

ALISHA: (laughs)
mr Styles UltrA AAA: Wow! That STUPENDOUS, psychedelic, erm, cropped jacket, statement biker jacket, that you are rocking here...

ALISHA: This jacket?

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Yes please! It's super AMAZING. Yes, this FINE jacket that YOU are wearing, not MINE.

(They both ENGAGE in laughter)
ALISHA: The jacket was a gift

mr Styles UltrA AAA: (coos, breathlessly) Oh it was a gift. that biker jacket looks like a gift; an emotive thing. it needs no vote to win. It stops my swooning heart, it tops the sartorial chart. Like Rita Ora, like my fedora repertoire, it boast the most atmospheric aura. Oh, it's, er, EDGY, and, er, AMAZING. That person - who bought you this, er, Miss Universe CRAZE, this treasure, my, erm pleasure; this measure, of perfection. Oh yes...I am consumed with infatuation for this sartorial reflection.

ALISHA: It was not bought. it was made in college quite a few years ago...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Really! In college? It's rather priceless. I MUST meet the extraordinary design talent. It's impossible to measure the pleasure of meeting you.

ALISHA: Yes
mr Styles UltrA AAA: Wow! Oh

ALISHA: When it came to my final assessment, the teacher decided to give me, this jacket...

mr Styles UltrA AAA: Really! (coos, breathlessly) That's AMAZING. That's the best decision anyone has ever made in sartorial history. You should take VERY good care of it you know...

Mr Elgiganten: Your expressions are superfluous and verbose. It's just a jacket, not a stuffed rabbit
mr Styles UltrA AAA: Stop taking words out of my mouth...Alicia! That jacket is an element to treasure. An element to cherish...I know....Everthing that you rock is something to treasure, anyway
ALISHA: (smiles) Yes.

mr Styles UltrA AAA:.. And EVERTHING about you is something to treasure also

ALISHA: (BEAMS, laughs enthusiastically)

(mr Styles UltrA AAA joins laughter)

ALISHA: (smiles) Thank you

mr Styles UltrA AAA: What do you like about London Fashion Week?

ALISHA: I LOVE the eclectic nature of it. So you see pretty much styles from every country, different people and their cultures. You can see the playful nature of the shows themselves (catwalk). And its nice to (pauses) ..It's nice to know that here (London) is being recognised for it's fashion. And...

WHILE shopping, on fashionable Oxford Street, for outrageously gorgeous, knock-them-dead suits and ties to wear to London Fashion Week, an interestingly-dressed Bundesliga, aka the sidewalk playboy, reminisces on the handsome AFRICA FASHION WEEK. [Zokaya wore BEAMS PLUS waistcoat, EXEMPLAIRE sweatshirt and MARWOOD scarf, AND,,,BORSALINO fedora]

BUNDESLIGA:

PARKA:
You are in the wrong queue.

BUNDESLIGA:
I thought so.

[Patrons with badges had reserved seats. Others with stamps, like the sidewalk playboy, BUNDESLIGA, had to stand at the back. FINALLY, the 'stamped on hands' queue started to move, albeit VERY slowly. Eventually, they reached inside]

Elisabetta:
Follow this young man. His name is Hachiko.

BUNDESLIGA:

The Sidewalk Boutique's sales - Review

The Sidewalk Boutique's sales had everything for the even the most discerning fashionista; BIG bargains and BIG brands. Berlusconi, aka the sidewalk playboy, was broke but, LUCKILY, he decided to check it out, nonetheless. Few hours later, he exited with his fashion friends, Raven and De Vera, more broke than before but with biker jackets, a bad-ass suit and tie from ASOS and Monsoon, respectively, and a authentic Lanvin dress originally priced at £2500. Wow! Needless to say, It was the sale of the season. The fashion friends had a ball, even the window shopper, Raven. There was no better place to do holiday AND Africa Fashion Week shopping, especially if you left it too late or if you have shallow pockets. detail shots Next time, go to other sales, you'll find a few things, but if you come to the Sidewalk Boutique's sales, you'll be spoilt for choice. Time for some detail shots at Africa Fashion Week. The Sidewalk Boutique's sales was a sale, not a dream. .......................... words by Zokaya Kamara Follow us https://twitter.com/zokayakamara please LIKE and share this page https://www.facebook.com/TheSidewalkDarlings/ please FOLLOW http://allthatrageseries.blogspot.com

Africa fashion Week London


AFTER walking a marathon on the sidewalk, empiricist pedestrian, Ennis, coercively extricate himself from the tedium of the olympics, on TV, to walk in "Africa" Fashion "Week", being held on the "3rd and 4th" of August, in "London." Moore than 50 deep-rooted designers, such as Lagerfield, sorry, no Lagerfield, and emerging ones, will showcase their prim collections.

ENNIS walks at event in Topman T shirt, Zara shorts and belt from Esprit


[EARLIER, ENNIS LOOKED FOR AN OUTFIT IN PRIMARK TO WEAR TO LONDON'S BIGGEST EVER AFRICAN FASHION EVENT.]


Till Operator: (to couple)

Would you like a bag?


POSH:

No thanks, we have our own bag. (customers in queue gasped as she took out a SELFRIDGES' bag.


Irate Customer:

That's out of order!


POSH:

I'd die if other pedestrians see me on the sidewalk with a damn Primark bag. Ugh!


Her partner nodded in agreement, "she would.!



But you are wearing Primark clothes now



If it were'nt for Primark, you'd be NAKED now



POSH:

You'll be astonished at the stupendous number of looks you get for carrying a primark bag on the sidewalk.

I think you are far too posh for Primark, so if I were you I'd get the hell out. NOW!

.....................................................................
NEW LOCH:

Where will the show be held? In SPitalfield market, near Liverpool street?


ENNIS:(in disgust)

Who told you? Yes!


New Loch:

I'll be there then.


You know this is a once a year event, so who will you be taking with you, your girlfriend?


Who told you? Yes! Joking, I'll take my mother. She's into current trends



That's lovely.


So how did you hear about Africa Fashion week


In Metro


Ahhh! Shame.


And you?


ENNIS:

Through my sidewalk fashion network

...................................
Shortly after patrons arrived, Ennis could hardly find anywhere to stand, let alone, walk


Ennis overheard a disgruntled patron muttering about paying £7 for his ticket but was unable to get a guaranteed seat. Seats were reserved for VIPs and industry bigwigs . He stormed out expeditiously, ranting.


FIELD:(on blackberry)

I miss you too, but I can't leave now. The show is about to start. I'll catch the first available flight later. 


[Listened]


Field: I saw Blake backstage....I could'nt believe it....No, I did'nt get the chance to greet him though. He was quite busy working. I can tell his debut will be a success.


[listened]


Field: Don't feel bad about missing the show. You did the right thing in concentrating and doing what you had to do before sunset for sabbath hour.



............................................................
Ennis could not resist this bewitching pair of hoops on the Afrocessories stall.



....................................................................


When the Presenter introduced Adebayo Jones, instead of saying 'Adebayo is known for dressing some of the world's top celebrities', he said, 'Adebayo is known for dressing some of the world's top designers.'

The audience erupted.

..............................

Pippa stretched and yawned throughout the female models' presentation. However, she perked up when the first male model came out, "TAKE IT OFF." (referring to his shirt)

.....................................................................................................

REPORTER:

You were on intern for the show, how was the experience?


TRACK:

Awesome! Excited to see the stuffs, sorry, the collections.....The team work very hard to make the show a success. I look forward to be a part of it next year. I invited my friend Oscar, and he enjoyed the show a great deal, tell her Oscar.



OSCAR:

What an amazing show! It was wonderful to see african fashion on London's catwalks. I loved it. When the show ended, I just wanted to see more. A great turn-out, and I'm sure next will be even greater.


Oscar attracted alot of media attention. "Africa Is The Future" was emblazoned on his T shirt.
