Will you be my Prorsum?

V day is approaching and it's unavoidable. I have been getting emails about Valentine's day special offers, discounts and whatnot for the last two weeks. I have never been a big fan of this day because it's always meant to be disappointing for one of the parts involved. Unless your significant other pays a visit to Burberry, that is. I was surprised to find out they're launching a V-day line this year with not only red but their signature checks setting the tone. The whole accessories line is very much in line with the biker aesthetic of the brand's SS11 collection. After all,  THE Burberry biker jacket has already become one of the key items of the season and it hasn't even started yet. The campaign for this particular occasion mirrors that of the main line, with the beautiful Jourdan Dunn and Sacha M’Baye as faces for this season.

Out of the great assortment of accessories my ultimate favourite has to be the shoulder satchel bag. The shape is really classic, which is why it works so well with the bold colours. I have the perfect picture in my mind of a girl with a beige trench, light blue jeans and a simple grey crew neck jumper and the red bag being the protagonist.
Check out the promo video below. And remember that Burberry's runway show will stream live on the 21st of February on their website, right after which you'll be able to purchase plenty of the items, as it's not tradition. I can barely wait to see what Bailey has created for FW11!

I'm off.
