7 trends for Autumn/Winter

Hello all! The sudden drop in temperature means it's feeling a lot more like Autumn/Winter now so I decided it would be the perfect time to do a round up of some of my favourite trends for the upcoming season.

Holly Fulton Spring/Summer 14

I had a really great time yesterday when I went to see the Holly Fulton show at London Fashion Week. Not only did I get to see the collection but I found the courtyard in Somerset House was the best place to people-watch. There were a lot of very exciting outfits there (...as well as a few mistakes). As everyone there was dressed in Autumn/Winter clothes, it gave me quite a few ideas and I'm actually really liking the trends for next season. One trend you really couldn't miss, was the amount of black clothing (literally everywhere you looked someone was sporting the all-black look). The show was amazing of course and I loved the use of colours and the different patterns and prints. Going to a show really makes you appreciate the way in which something is worn and the way it moves and fits on the body, something which really can't be shown in a photograph. I had a good view luckily, and the layout had changed from the classic catwalk to a sort of walk-around-the-room arrangement, making it a lot more spacious.

What do you think of this collection? Did anyone else go/is going to LFW?

What I've been liking at the moment...

I was going to do an outfit post for you today but then I looked outside and decided against it. Next time I will trek outside even if there's wind and hail, I promise! I thought I'd show you some things that I've really been liking at the moment . Here are mine...

1. Crop tops

The chances are I'll only have about 3 days this summer to actually wear a crop top since the weather's so rubbish here in England. Who knows, maybe this summer will be hot and sunny - I'll report back in a few months time. I really love this trend though at the moment. I keep seeing crop tops on other people's blogs and it's given me loads of inspiration.

2. Off- the - shoulder tops and dresses
I don't know why but I really love this style. I guess it sort of makes an outfit a lot more elegant and can be mixed with something completely not elegant such as the boots above and look amazing.


(top - Givenchy, shoes - Jeffrey Campbell, skirt - Temperley London, belt - Oscar de la Renta)
3. Sheer fabrics
You can never fail with a plain sheer top. I'm pretty sure this trend will never go out of fashion due to it's wonderful versatility and ability to glamourise any outfit (if worn right that is!).



(dungarees - Boohoo, shirt - Todd Lynn, shoes - Jeffrey Campbell, bangle - Kate Spade)
4. Dungarees
Partially inspired by my friend's recent purchase of a very lovely pinafore dress. I really really want some dungarees now!
