Kendall Jenner, Reality Star or High Fashion?

When Kendall took part in fashion week in February  for the first time, like most people I suspect I was very sceptical about it, I mean this is Kendall Jenner famous for being on ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians’, she isn’t a model! But boy was I wrong. When you see her walk on the runways you forget that she is part of that family and how she became famous, but realise that she could actually become a really successful high fashion model.

And I think that most fashion designers have noticed this as she is walking with some of the best. She walked the Givenchy runway with Cara Delevingne, Joan Smalls and Georgia May Jagger.

There has been rumours going around that some of the other models have been bullying her because they believe she doesn't deserve to be here, she didn't work as hard as they have to get there. Yes that may be true, but it may also be so untrue, her family name could work in her favour, but also against her. She is a reality star, not an actress and in Hollywood being a reality star isn't that credible, there is a reason there was so much uproar about Kim being on the cover of Vogue, because they really are famous for doing nothing. 

Kendall cannot help that she has the bone structure, the legs, the stomach, the body for a runway model, but she would have had to have gone to casting calls just like all of the other models who walked on that runway.

I think she is trying to branch out from the reality show and starting to make a name for herself as a model, and she is doing so well. I personally don't think there was a runway Kendall didn't walk down this fashion week, especially in New York. She wouldn't have booked all of those jobs if she wasn't good at what she did.

I think she will make a great high fashion runway model. 

Millie Mackintosh - AW14 The Dream Wardrobe

Millie Mackintosh is known for being on Made in Chelsea and of course being married to Professor Green. I have been religiously been following her style diary for the last couple of years, so when she launched her very own fashion line on September 10th 2014. 

When Millie was on Made in Chelsea, she was always the best dressed out of the cast and I was constantly wondering where she got her clothes and if she had a stylist, but turns out she just knows how to dress herself extremely well. 

So when she released her clothing line on Wednesday I was on her website in a second looking to buy a couple of pieces to add to my wardrobe. But I must say I was really disappointed. Her clothing line had the potential of being incredible, but I found it just very standard and honestly think there is nothing special about it, none of the items alone would make you stand out in the street. 

 Skirt £45.00

Shirt £40.00

 Skirt £59.00

Shirt £45.00

 Double Breasted Waistcoat £140.00

Dress £80.00

Also when I first saw the prices, I was a bit shocked and thought they were quite expensive. Now this could be because I have been in America for 3 months and everything there is cheap compared to England, so then I started to think about how much you can buy these items for in high street stores like Topshop, Mango and Zara and came to terms with the fact that, that's just the price that you buy clothes for. So she's not trying to bankrupt everyone with her fashion line and maybe her next line will be a bit more draw dropping as I know she has the potential to be an incredible high street and maybe celebrity fashion designer. 

But make the decision for yourself and have a look at her first fashion collection for AW14 - The Dream Wardrobe
