His And Hers Festive Fashion...

 Obligatory Christmas Jumper...

I can't quite believe it's nearly that time of year again when we're looking to purchase our obligatory Christmas Jumpers!! It seems that over the last few years, Christmas clobber has become somewhat of a trend with all kinds of unexpected people.. Not only are people wearing them for the novelty factor; but to compete in the festive fashion stakes too!! 

Here are some of my absolute favourites this year.. I seriously cannot wait until 1st December when I can start wearing mine :)

Go Crazy For Statement Necklaces!!

The Importance Of Making A Statement...

I just can't get enough of these fabulous statement necklaces.. They are the one sure thing that I would recommend any girl to purchase as an 'investment buy!!' Team with a classic shirt or basic tee and they can instantly update an outfit.. And if there's ever a time when you just can't afford to buy yourself a brand new outfit then try investing in a statement necklace to go with your classic little black dress...

Below are some great statement finds available in stores now.. My favourite is the Marks and Spencer black and gold one.. Love it's vintage look - Like you've borrowed it from your grandma's jewellery box :) And it's perfect for the baroque trend that is big this party season!!! Love love love...

British Heritage Style Reigns!!!

The Country Bumpkin...

I've been shooting a lot of country heritage style pieces over the last few weeks.. Lots of tweed, owl prints, rustic colours, brown leather and checks to list just a few of the designs and prints going through the retailers at the moment.. The trend has been in the shops for quite a while now but is still the classic British trend directly inspired from our beautiful British countryside. Think Kate Middleton on a country weekend retreat and you're half way there!! To wear it well, you have to be smart yet relaxed in your colourings - no bright colours anywhere to be seen and black is too boring!! Classic accessories such as a trilby or a pair of leather gloves will add instant chic and credibility to any heritage inspired piece.  

The article below shows some fabulous heritage pieces available in stores now...

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..

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..

Available this Autumn/Winter at Matalan and Ravel

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.

A Fashionista's Barmy Army...

Army Style Girl...

Seems like every girl in Manchester is wearing an army jacket these days.. The trend has caught on massively over the last few weeks and whilst people watching the other day, it was just like watching a fashion army of girls congregate in the fashionable city. I too have been wearing my leather armed designer copy from Primark, as seen below and have been stopped by hundreds (well not hundreds but quite a few people) to ask where it was from... Well, it was Primark and a steal at £25!!
