Last weekend we saw the annual Bullring Autumn Fashion Fix bringing a spot of TOWIE glamour to the iconic shopping centre. Two of the main stars from the ITV2 series, ‘The Only Way is Essex’, Sam and Billie Faiers, were in the 2nd City to present a fashion show high on style, but with many pieces plucked from the High Street.

I sat opposite the TOWIE girls.
This year’s show promised to be a guide to the season’s must have trends, and it certainly delivered on that front. Comprising of 6 key scenes;- ‘The Cosmo Edit’, ‘Faux Fur’, ‘Tapestry Folk’, ‘Shades of Red’, ‘New Pastels’ and, finally, ‘Metallics’, this was a show with one eye firmly placed on Winter dressing in general, and Christmas party looks in particular.
There was a lovely selection of outfits made up with pieces by stores such as Gap, Reiss, River Island, Miss Selfridge, Topshop and a host of looks from Selfridges. I would be hard pressed to decide on a favourite outfit, but a metallic skirt from Topshop, and a stunning blue lace dress from Self Portrait at Selfridges did make me squeal a little.
Here are some of the looks from the show, where possible, I have added a link to the item online.

I really like that lace dress too, and the pale green coat….(*adds to very long shopping list*)
This looks like it was a fun event. I wish I didn’t live so far away from the ballring 🙁
I absolutely love red so any dress with red in it is going to be my favourite obviously.
I have to say that I think that this is the best year for Fashion in a long time 🙂 Loing all the looks and you look fab. #MMWBH

Very well put together post
Looks like there was a great turn out, I wasn’t even aware shopping centres held fashion shows! Wish mine did! x
