Lust for Leather - Autumn/Winter 2012

Lust for Leather...

I purchased a leather biker jacket from Asos around 7 years ago now and OH MY has it had its fair share of wear.. I think I have worn it around this time of year, every single year since then.. It has taken me from one trend to another and is probably one of the most versatile things in my wardrobe. I do still love it, like the day that I purchased it.. And if I'm honest, I'll probably still wear it in 10 years time if it fits me.

This article below shows some fantastic leather pieces available on the high street this Autumn/Winter.. I absolutely love the main picture of the model wearing the leather dress by Autograph at Marks and Spencers for the great price of £69. Love how it is styled with the extra long gloves and sexy black ankle boots, making it look more high end designer than high street fix.

As this article highlights, leather is still going to be in high demand this Autumn/Winter and I'm a great believer that if you buy leather garments that are basic and not too overly fancy. They can be a really good investment to your wardrobe collection and something that you can easily slot into a range of different Autumn/Winter trends that can still be worn year after year. Leather has been around for such a long long time and it looks like it's here to stay... Yay!!

A/W 2012 - Metallic Jaquard

Shine Your Way Into Next Season..

One trend I am very excited about for Autumn/Winter 2012 is the jacquard metallics trend.. It seems wearing a sequin dress, skirt or top is just not enough anymore and a clashing of textures and prints, including metallics and jacquard is the way to shine shine shine this Autumn/Winter. I purchased myself a jacquard jacket from H and M in the sale last week and now I can't wait to whip it out for a clashing!! This article below shows a selection of high street must haves available in stores this Autumn/Winter... Especially love the baroque high waist shorts by River Island £30.

I love Vivienne Westwood's Quirky Style!!

All Stand Up For Vivienne Westwood

I was reading an article about Vivienne Westwood in Stylist Magazine this weekend.. I just love her quirky sense of style.. Even at her age, she manages to carry off the quirky, eccentric and unusual style that is reflected in her own fashion designs. I hope I manage to keep my uniqueness and creativity by the time I am her age...

Fashion Clothes Swap Frenzie!!!

Swap That Dress For Something Special...

I went to my first clothes swap party at the weekend.. And WOW was I impressed!! I must admit I was abit aprehensive before I went. I'm quite protective over my clothes and handing them over to the lovely girl behind the desk was a hard task for me complete!! All kinds of things were going through my head.. Do I really want to give them away? Am I going to miss them? Will I wear them again one day? Will I find anything good enough that I like? Am I going to regret this? The good thing was I was pleasantly surprised!! I took some of my old vintage numbers down to The Shipping Forecast in Liverpool and managed to swap them for some high street beauties!! There was a big choice in items, vintage, high street, designer, shoes, jewellry and accessories and all were in excellent condition.

The girls that organised the event were from the fashion website www.myfashionjunkie.com and they were really helpful and enthusiastic when it came to swapping the clothes. They gave me a good price swap for my items and told me that if I didn't find anything I could keep my points and use them online or at another event.. Phew!! I wasn't going to be left with something I didn't really like!! I'd definitely recommend a fashion swap party and might even try to organise one myself soon. The perfect thing about them is that you can swap your clothes amongst your friends. Everyone has things in their wardrobe that they're either bored of, don't fit into anymore or have never even worn because it was definitely a spur of the moment buy that you knew at the time you should not have bought!!

Well as the famous saying says.. One man's tat is another man's treasure!!! And in the case, it really was true!!!! :O)
