Fashion Trends A/W13

It's that time of year again, you just get back from you lovely summer break and then you're in the summer mood to shop and its all Autumn/Winter Collections which puts a huge downer on everything. You can still do that great summer shopping trip and still buy Autumn clothes that can still be worn in the summer - you just have to use your skills - COLOUR! - Easy.

Trend No.1: Typical Wooly...
Mango Spanish Fashion Store (Mango) has been advertising their Autumn/Winter range like no tomorrow, with their new face Miranda Kerr modelling. Mango's casual knit Cardigan has initiatively been advertised with a floral spaghetti strap dress to keep that summer smile on your face. This has been paired with great black brogue studded shoes.

Everyone's got a typical crochet jumper that their granny loves and maybe you not so much, but why not throw it on under a tulip skirt or 3/4 jersey pencil skirt if its slouchy or if its tight fitting tuck it under a waist school skirt. Add some accessories so its not so winter school girl look and head on out!






Trend No.2: Teasing Tees
A mischievous item has to be an essential in every girls wardrobe this Autumn as their setting the High Street on FIRE! The High streets exploding with parody t-shirts of some of the worlds top designers - Jimmy Choo and Yves Saint Laurent. The tees are sending peoples minds and instagram accounts crazy with excitement. You can find them anywhere from Selfridges on Oxford Street, London to Amazon.co.uk for as little as £9.99 (below) - available in loads of different colours too.

By far my favourite "Ain't Laurent without Yves" by TeeIsland at Amazon

Trend No.3: Cat Powers Back
Yes that's right leopard prints are back and their flying off the shelves. But hang on a minute - their not light brown and black - their HOT... Leopard prints are making a comeback from the old Barbara Winsor Fur jacket and their taking no survivors. You can dress them up and down as much as you want all year round. Almost any style can suit any shape as long as its worn right.
