Gloves AW 09!

Gloves are the perfect finishing accessory this season, seen on the catwalk by christian Lacroix and marc jabcobs with beautiful leather gloves….the highstreet have plenty of options to keep those hand’s warm and on trend!

Good old primark are offering 100% leather gloves for £7!!!! yes £7!!! at that price, a pair in every colour i think!

Velvet

VELVET – new trend….

Here are some samples of velvet from TOPSHOP…….

Winter coats….

As winter is approaching we will all be out there looking for the perfect winter coat.  From looking at the highstreet one shop stood out from the rest.  River Island has a range which includes a flash of colour, thick heavy fabrics and clashing linings.  They are afordable and will last all winter long.   See below our pick of the best from the River Island range and click on the link to take you straight to the website…

It’s all in the shoulders….

Get with the new fashion trend and sharpen those shoulders.  Think Dynasty in the 80′s, we are talking power dressing and shoulder pads, yes you heard right, SHOULDER PADS!! I bet you never thought the day would come when you could be wearing them!  Well this is the new season look and very high in fashion.  First it was the hips that had extra shape in the skirts and now it is the shoulders taking centre stage.   Here are some photos from London Fashion week of shoulders on the catwalk..

Using extra fabric to create volume or padding to create structure, here are some highstreet pieces to create the look for less…

Weather is turning….

The weather is turning so it is time to bring out the knitwear to keep nice and cosy this winter and of course on trend!

Kenzo and Branquinho led the way on the autumn 09 catwalks with thick patterned and cable knits. They kept the look sexy by pairing with feminine silhouettes.

How to get the look…….Look for peices in intresting shapes or team a jumper dress with wet look leggings for great sex appeal! – don’t forget to accessorize with that waist belt to bring your look together.

The Highstreet is full of great knitwear at the moment……below is a selction from ASOS, Allsaints, Warehouse and Reiss..

X factor glamour…

X factor was brilliant tonight but my eye was firmly fixed on the fashion.  Cheryl and Dannii were wearing beautiful colourful dresses and looked stunning….. and sister Kylie didn’ t look too bad either…
