Who defines fashion?

Why do we let other people define what is 'In' and what is 'Out'?

Why do we let the heirachy of the fashion world decide on the fundamental looks of the season.

Are we becoming sheep and following fashion rather than creating our own style?

So the question I ask is - Does fashion define you?

At Saxonne, we have decided to define our own style rather than be devout followers. Working in an office of 4 girls from 21 - 32, we all have different fashion styles. We wear what makes us feel good, confident, happy.

Fashion is such an important part of life, fashion defines how we are viewed by society, our peers. Make fashion who you are. Choose pieces that signify you, items that show your personality and help define who you are. Don't wear something because the media tells you its 'fashionable' - wear it because you feel a million dollars in it, wear it because you love it. Wear it because - it's you.

Remember, you are the voice of your own fashion statement. If you're comfortable in your look, your confidence will show and there is no style in the world more attractive on a woman than CONFIDENCE.

With self confidence you can pull off anything in the fashion world. So choose fashion that makes you feel FABULOUS inside and out, and everything else will just fall into place!

At Saxonne, we are loving anything embellished. Addicted to sequins you might say. The new SS09-10 collection 'Karma' is sprinkled with sequins, studs and beading. We love it, anytime, anywhere. Saxonne Endless love dress pictured in cream/black with aroura vest in antique over the top.

Welcome to the Saxonne blog......where we will update you on news, events, ideas and give you our opinions on a variety of topics. At Saxonne Head office, we are a team of 4 females ranging from 21 to 32 years old, all with different styles and interests, but the common thread that ties us all together is a love of fashion.

OUR FAVOURITE THINGS
We thought the best way to start the blog was to tell you about our favourite things, the inspiration and motivation behind our designs.
We constantly surround ourselves with images of beautiful things that we love. We are collectors of pieces from the past, and we constantly draw inspiration from vintage images. Old record covers, vintage designer brands - especially chanel, sequins and trims, old photographs, jewels and lavish fabrics. These items provide us with the canvas that we use to create each individual piece of SAXONNE.
We get most of our inspiration from travel, people and collected pieces. We love mixing up styles, like adding heavy studding to a feminine piece to give it an edge. Fashion is all about puting together pieces, vintage, contemporary and new age.....but it just seems that the oldies are always the goodies!

The old chanel campaigns were so ahead of their times. Timeless and elegant, and still so fashionable today.
