红色总是让人血液沸腾，购买欲望也增强的颜色。英国老牌百货玛莎百货“M&S”虽然在过去的岁月中渐渐在人们心中变成了主打食品的超市，但现在重新建立起百货形象的他们，时装部门实在也是不容小觑。这件正红色的短袖衬衫，蕾丝，花边等细节做的一丝不苟，完全体现了M&S一向对品质的追求。和这一季红到不行的驼色麂皮搭配在一起也是相得益彰。When I see something beautiful, I wow; beautiful and red, I buy. Simple as that.
I recently did a bit of online shopping(well, I always do a bit of online shoppings here and there, but just for the flow of the article...). It may be because of the weather getting warmer, or not. But everything that I got from my shopping at M&S was either red, orange, pink, camel, or a mix print of all those colours. Now Marks & Spencer may not be the first place you head over for fashion, but if you care to take a look, they actually stock some rather cute, and quality, and trendy pieces. This beautiful red blouse with delicate details came together with the faux suede midi skirt in the same box. I tried them on together and decided to look no further in my wardrobe since they worked just fine with each other. Of course the red blouse could have been teamed with jeans or smarter trousers for different looks. And the skirt(being the "IT" skirt of the season)could've also worked with a million other tops as well. But you see, I am a person who believes in fate, and they did arrive in the same box, so...

And the reason why I was in the courtyard of V&A? Not only for the photo shoot of course not. If you make it to one exhibition this year, make sure it is the Savage Beauty at the V&A. Remember, this advice comes from someone who's not head over heels in love with McQueen's designs(oops! Am I allowed to say it if I still want to write about fashion?). So I still went, just to check out what all the fuss was about. And I was stunned! What I saw was far more than a display of designer clothing. The way the whole exhibition was curated and set up, took people onto a breathtaking journey of how a genius was born, and flourished, and struggled, and vanished. By the end of it, it was so much more than simply having one to agree with the aesthetics, but just to cherish the delicateness of a mind that was truly one of a kind.
