Belfast Fashion Week

Keeping up with seasonal #trends without a #celebritybudget can be a big ask. However, with a few simple staples in your wardrobe, it can become a little less daunting! Mixing and matching is key. #Shoes can be re-worn with various different #outfits on a regular basis, so that you can turn your focus elsewhere, minimising stress and making #fashion fun again, as it should be! Here is a list of the ten trending shoes this #season:

Is that #cmprmodels Aimee Boyle with an oversized #Chanel bag or is it an UrbanPup.com dog carrier? 😍

We were delighted that #wccfw boss Cathy Martin won the Victoria Square #StyleChallenge in the Secret Garden at the weekend. Thousands of people visited the garden and browsed stylists’ choices from stores across the centre including River Island, Topshop, L.K.Bennett and Coast. Cathy’s winning look - worn by #cmprmodels Aimee Boyle - was from House of Fraser and included layered knitwear from Jigsaw and Karen Millen as well as a fab metallic pleated skirt from Whistles and a bag by #Therapy.

Happy Birthday to the gorgeous #cmprmodels Una Catherine Burns! We hope you have the best day 🎁🎂 From all at #BFWHQ 😘

Went to see my 5 year old niece model in it, we were worried nerves would get the better of her in front of the large crowd but she proved us wrong. I'd never been to a fashion show before, thoroughly enjoyed it.

Went as part of a girls night out to the high street fashion show. Have been many times and it is always a fantastic night out. Great models, loved the outfits, great location would Def recommend

Was at this for the first tine last night and thought it was fantastic!! Beautiful clothes and hot looking models. Would definitely go again.

Thank you BELFAST FASHION WEEK for yet another fabulous show. Feel in love with SO many SS17 looks. � Not to mention the adorable mini models on the runway. Made a perfect girlie night out. We look forward to returning. Highly recommended ladies. X

I had a great evening on Friday at my first Belfast Fashion Week show, loved seeing all the gorgeous looks for s/s17. Lovely atmosphere and really fun fashion show. Great range of models too �

Had an amazing night down at Belfast FASHIONWEEK. It was my first time attending the events. The High Street show was my favorite, although next season I am making sure to get tickets for Sushi Saturday.

Great night, fantastic models but the FROW goodie bags weren't up to much - a catalogue voucher, a bottle of water, a promo lypsil and a sachet of conditioner........

Really disappointed this year, show was very short,less than an hour and the goodie bags were rubbish - sachet of conditioner, bright green eye shadow and a translink lip balm �

Also didn't say which high street shops the clothes were actually from, an overhead screen just said 'directors cut' for most of the show

Heard lots of ppl complaining on way out of venue

Disappointed!!

Been at the High St Show a few years ago and it was fantastic, so I asked a few friends if they would like to go this year.

This year however the show seemed really short and didn't have any Zara, Next, Topshop, Oasis, ASOS, Debenhams, Miss Selfridge, New Look, Dorothy Perkins, etc - which were all advertised for the show. This was what we were more disappointed with!

Plus if you weren't in the front row, you weren't able to see the shoes for any of the outfits.

If I knew it was just going to be M&S, DV8, Remus Uomo, Boyd Avenue and a couple of other boutique style stores I would have stayed at home! Sorry!!
