Seoul Fashion Week SS15

photo by Sean O’dell  — edited for post purposes by me

I am not jealous. Don’t be silly!! I’m not. I’m honestly not spending hours on my instafeed, double-tapping all the sfw photos I come across. Shush. You’re being absurd. 90% of my tumblr dashboard isn’t photos of the pretty, pretty models dressed in pretty, pretty clothes, and I totally haven’t tried to find every behind-the-scenes photo from the First Ever 87mm show.

Psh.

Pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I’m simply admiring all the photos. (Lies, so many lies.) But if anyone is offering to fly me out to Seoul for two days (or next season) I’d be on that plane so fast you wouldn’t even be able to say Fii. There’s something about Seoul’s fashion week that I am so in love with it is painful to not be there.

So today I am bringing you some of my absolute favourite street style posts (so far) from the brilliant photographers that I’m having to live through vicariously. And also possibly introduce you to a few people you should definitely follow.

***none of the photos featured in this post are mine – all photographers are credited and no copyright infringement is intended. I simply want to share some stunning photography***

Alex Finch:
Fellow brit, does such magnificent street fashion photography. Such a lovely person too. He has an eye for detail and it translates so well into his photography. He has a facebook page, instagram, and his website, iamalexfinch.

Lee GaHyeon by Alex Finch

Colour matching! I really like how her nails match the green accents on her jumper, and how her white hat and bottom half of the outfit (appear) to match. A casual look that isn’t hard to replicate if you’re after stylistic inspiration.

Models, by Alex Finch

Can’t go wrong with an all black outfit. Ever. Walking/motion shots will always be my favourite type of photos from fashion weeks, they look so much more natural than the ‘stand against this area of wall and pose’. You can see how the outfit moves. I love how in this photo we have all the trouser types — skinny, harem, cropped, straight leg — and styled in different ways.

– by Alex Finch

Double Coats is such a Korean Thing. As is being permanently attached to ones phone, but that’s a post for another day. Strangely, I really enjoy the way the two jackets work together. The different levels compliment, as do the different colours. I am absolutely in love with the sheer panelling on the patterned one.

I think this is possibly one of my most favourite photos to ever come out of any fashion week ever. It’s so simple.

Sean O’dell
I’m allowed to promote my Uni juniors on my own blog. He said I could use his photos for a blog post since I’m not at SFW this season so use them I will.

Hands up if you watch Korea’s Next Top Model… Ok that was a long shot, but the cyle that is running at the minute is the first ever Girls&Guys cycle for the Korean version. And this kid is JaeHyuk Shin, from the currently airing cycle.  He’s wearing clothes from theGrowing, if you want to bag yourself a piece to go with AW’s pinstripe trend.

Double coats, pinstripes, ways to wear summer items through into the new season? This girl s seriously on trend, and super cute to boot. I love the contrast of the red and camel, and the way both complement the navy of the pinstripe trouser.

All black outfit, check. Layering, check. On trend coloured item, check.
I love this look. It’s all classic elements and Seoul Chic.

FASHIONABLE CHILREN!!!!
Ok quite clearly this is a very style conscious parent dressing this child by Christ Almighty this is adorable.

Finishing this post with #welldressedboys. Easily my favourite thing about any fashion week, although #adorablechildren is probably edging ever closer. Oh and Lee HoJung. Anyway. Well dressed boys. Duster coats, round collared jumper, good hair. What is not to love.

Oh how I wish I was there taking my own photos. One day I will attend all the fashion weeks. Alllll of them. I will be jetlagged as hell, and it might not be physically possible, but –sigh– a girl can dream.

    I have the same dream: visiting all fashion weeks in order to be able to breathe in fashion properly and make even better clothes. It's my dream to live in Seoul and be able to go to SFW. ^^ beautiful post, by the way! ^^

      Ahh I hope we can both realise that dream! It would be incredible..I highly recommend going to SFW at least once in your life. It has a quality that is completely different to the western fashion weeks. I love it. I miss it *sigh*Thank you so much 🙂 🙂

    AHHH I'm SO jealous of everyone who's attending Seoul Fashion Week.I love the sheer panelling in the girl's coat as well as the pinstripe trend. I've been looking for pinstriped clothing for such a long time but can never find anything good.I'm also watching KNTM!! Currently waiting for the next episode T__Twww.n-hyc.com

      I know!! I haven't at *all* looked at the price of tickets for a week in march… noPe. Seoul kids always manage to look so put together even in a tracksuit and neon trainers. I don't know how they do it they just do. I've been looking around for pinstripe stuff too, can't really find anything I want to spend upwards of £20 on. Oooh who do you want to win? 🙂

come with me to get laser treatment done at 클럽 come with me to get laser treatment done at 클럽미즈라미체의원 (lamiche clinic) in seongpa-gu, seoul ☺️

it was my first time getting this kind of treatment done, so i was nervous, but the staff walked me through everything and the process was simple. They have a full interpretation service if you don’t speak korean, too. 

I had a skin evaluation, and then consultation with Dr. Joo. It was really eye opening (and fully humbling) to see my skin like that, and I was open to letting Dr. Joo make recommendations based on his expertise. I do thoroughly research skincare on my own, but there are some things that creams and actives just cannot do. 

Unfortunately due to work commitments I couldn’t do the full 3-4 hours of treatment that were recommended, but I’m pleased with the results of my treatment anyway! 

treatment: 
- rough extraction (not filmed)
removes sebum and other impurities from pores. This was probably the most painful part for me? but i still felt I was in very good and capable hands. 🥲

lasers: 
- affirm mpx
🎯 appearance of pores, wrinkles, ptosis, deep nasolabial folds, cervical stripes 
- fraxel dual 
🎯 appearance of scarring, wrinkles, ptosis, deep nasolabial folds, cervical stripes 
- new accolade 
🎯 pigmented lesions 
- excel v
🎯 pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, elastic lesion
-revlite c7
🎯 skin surface, wrinkles, scarring, pigmented lesion, pimple pigmentation

other: HA filler, front cheek (volume) 

thoughts: 
the pain was less than i’d thought it would be… though I do have quite a high pain tolerance. I experienced some of the expected scabbing during the next two days as the skin healed, and took the recommended medication to help with the healing process. 

after 2 weeks: 
my skin does have less redness, especially around my nose, and the surface texture looks better! I’ve had a lot of compliments on how my skin is looking recently (despite the cold) so overall I am very pleased. :) 

If you have any questions, let me know and i’ll answer as best i can :)

this barbie got something she wanted, finally. 💋
good morning from the chilly riverside~ even tho good morning from the chilly riverside~ 

even though the weather these days is getting less than toasty (haha), I have been making use of the Seoul bike rental program! 
Ttareungi (따릉기) is super easy to use, you do need an app and internet connection, but the user interface is really intuitive, and you can use it in korean or english. The map tells you how many bikes are at any given location, and renting one is a simple as scanning the qr code on the back, paying 2000 won for 2 hours (1000won for 1 hour, 5000won whole day) and peddling off 💖

(as someone who is terrified of doing something wrong, I was really happy with how easy both rental and return is.) You don’t need an account to use them either. 

(toast isn’t the biggest fan, but he doesn’t like bikes so i’ll give him a pass)

a night(tour) at the museum! The Gyeongbok palac a night(tour) at the museum! 

The Gyeongbok palace night tour is a popular attraction over the summer months, but did you know the National Museum offers guided tours too? 

I went on a guided tour of the museum garden recently, and saw a lot of really interesting structures and treasures of note. Plus it’s nice to spend time outside with the autumn leaves (peak time will probably be around next week!) 

entry to the museum is free, and there are a few different tours you can do both inside and outside of it :)

found a whale in the han river 🐳 🐋 (don’ found a whale in the han river 🐳 🐋 

(don’t worry it’s not real! - but it is part of the kcontent festival happening at the 세빛섬 / floating islands at banpo han river park. 

The whale is from Extraordinary Attorney Woo, and you can also see Younghee from Squid Game, and one of the cells from Yumi’s Cells (admittedly I haven’t seen that one…) 

There are other games you can play too, and if you go on a weekend you can craft your own whale) 

:) The festival runs until september 30th! ))

summer~~~ has definitely been *hot* this year. Sad summer~~~ has definitely been *hot* this year. Sad to say I definitely haven’t utilised the seasons as much as I wanted to because of work :( I did manage to escape the heat by eating the staple summer dessert (bingsu // 빙수 ) 💖 and chilling in my downtime in cafes! 

I think i’m going to wait a bit a bit for the heat to go down before breaking out the picnic stuff this year 💖 

how do you cool off in the heat ~

tiny girl on a film set 🎥 🍿 This location tiny girl on a film set 🎥 🍿 

This location is @provokeseoul , a repurposed flour mill that was built during the japanese colonial period of korea. These days it doesn’t grind grain, but you might have seen it in music videos and #kdrama scenes! 

Currently this location isn’t open to the public to visit, so thanks @globalseoulmates for organising the tour! But!!! The Provoke team have plans to open to the public in the future to link to Mullae art village~ 

(Last two slides are taken from @xikers_official KOONG performance video, which was filmed here!) 

Do you know any other media Provoke has appeared in? let me know in the comments :)

if you’re struggling to reapply your sunscreen t if you’re struggling to reapply your sunscreen throughout the day, then I really suggest you switch so a sun stick. They’re incredibly portable, and, most importantly, no mess!!! The amount of times I’ve had sunscreen explode in my bag… 

This sun stick from @marynmay_official is great for on the go application. It contains peptides and bakuchiol, which are great for helping your skin fight off free radicals that can damage your skin. It’s not greasy, and wears well under makeup. 

It’s been such a great addition to my bag that I actually almost forgot to take it out to make this reel 🥲😅

i made kimbap~ 🫶 Thanks to the Seoul Hallyu A i made kimbap~ 
🫶 
Thanks to the Seoul Hallyu Activites Program I got to go to CJ The Kitchen and experience making Kimbap for the first time ❤️

It wasn’t all smooth sailing but our teacher said my kimbap rolling skills were good 🥹 which … well you can judge for yourself 😂

It was a lot of fun, and there are a lot of different activities to try out on the Hallyu program that unfortunately I didn’t get to do because of my work schedule. You can take dance classes with YGX, craft making classes, go to SBS The Show, or make Korean liquor or kimchi. 

What do you think of the kimbap i made 😅

🌺 flower festival season is upon us 🌸 Cher 🌺 flower festival season is upon us 🌸 

Cherry blossoms are probably the most famous flower festival that happens across the country (there are some amazing spots in seoul for seeing them) - but there are a lot of other festivals for different flowers too! 
(I have them saved on my naver maps under orange hearts so that I can see them easily) 

At the moment, canola flowers (유채꽃) are in full bloom (they’re a spring flower in Korea) and there are a couple of great places to see them in all their glory in Seoul. 

One of them is Seorae Island (서래섬), between shinbanpo station (신반포역) and gubanpo station (구반포역). It’s a small island covered in Canola flowers, with a pretty Han river view. 

Seorae village (서래마을), the french quarter, isn’t far away either, so you can treat yourself to some french pastries after visiting, or get yourself a full picnic spread.

(Even though the festival is technically over now, you’ll still be able to see the flowers for a bit longer ^^) 

Other flower festivals happening soon are: 

🥀 rose festival in jungnang-gu (중랑구) 
🥀 seoul grand park rose garden festival 

📌 서래섬 - about a 15 minute walk from 구반포역 exit 2, or 신반포역 exit 1 
(40 Sinbanpo-to 11-gil, Seocho-gu, Seoul)
🌼 The festival runs from may 12-21st and entry is free!
