Purple Is The New Black...

Going All Purple...

Purple was the statement colour all over the A/W 2012 catwalks and the pieces shown in this article are no exception to the rich and juicy colour admired by many celebs on recent dates!! As an alternative to wearing black, the colour oozes fun and naughtiness from the traditional standard black.

I just love the suede bow gloves by River Island.. The perfect thing to accessorise your plain leather biker jacket!!

A/W Accessorize Advertising Campaign..

New Autumn/Winter Collection at Accessorize...

I love the new Autumn/Winter Advertising campaign by Accessorize. They never fail to create a quirky ad that really attracts your attention, whether it's across the pages in a magazine or when you walk past one of their shop windows.. I always love how it is styled, busy with lots of things going on, but you're still able to identify the things that they are selling.. 

Here are a few of my favourite pics from the campaign..

Pretty Green by Liam Gallagher...

Pretty Green With Envy...

I've been shooting some pieces of the Pretty Green label this week, which is Liam Gallagher's very own men's wear fashion range. If you're the kind of lad that likes the British mod rocker look then this brand is definitely for you... With it's button down polo shirts and thick cotton parka's, the Green Label range is not just affordable, it's very well made with good quality fabrics and nice little attention to detail around the collars and cuffs.

Pretty Green also do a Black Label range that is a little more high-end and expensive, with products including statement outerwear pieces including overcoats and unique tailoring with the typical mod style suit. The pieces are well designed to show their true British mod style prestige, with a splash of 70's style inspiration. They also sell a range of denim, footwear and accessories, including Liam's famous circle rimmed sunglasses, inspired by the Beatles legend John Lennon. 

I think the brand has really been marketed well and I really love their new Autumn/Winter look book campaign, very cool and collected.. Complete with a short fashion film in which Liam actually appears!! 

You can see the video here...

Also, here are some of my favourite pieces from the amazing Black Label range, available online now at Pretty Green

6 Of The Best Winter Boots By Ravel....

6 Of The Best Boot Buys by Ravel Shoes...

I received the new Autumn/Winter 2012 look book by Ravel the other day and was instantly spoilt for choice with their fabulous new boot selection. Ravel has always been one for a good quality footwear and these styles below are no exception!! I think my favourite style is the Kellis in black and tan brown for £100. I just love the contrasting black leather against the tan brown leather strap; meaning you don't have the dilemma of whether to wear a black or brown bag, you can wear either!! With knee high boots being the key footwear trend of the A/W 2012 season, you will have no trouble in choosing a great pair by Ravel.

Ravel are set to launch their exciting new website very soon, where you will be able to purchase these boots and a wider selection of footwear to be delivered direct to your door... Watch this space for their amazing new website complete with fashion tips on how to wear and Ravel's very own blog.

Here are my 6 of the best winter boots by Ravel available Autumn/Winter at Ravel

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!!

The Big XXX Jumper Dress!!

New Jumper Dress by Matalan..

It's soon going to be that time of year again when we are begrudgingly reaching for our warm chunky knitwear, as the ever so predictable cold British Winter time finally sets in.. However, being warm can also be cool and fashionable.. And this amazing jumper dress by Matalan is the perfect piece to add to your Autumn/Winter wardrobe. I love it's oversized monochrome feel and cool retro pop XXX logo. Mix it up with these amazing bright blue suede boots by Ravel for an Edie Sedgwick 60's vibe..

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.
