Stay On Trend This Fall By Rocking A Military Jacket or Shearling Coat

Are you ready for action this fall? This season has seen a military inspired spin on the traditional trench coat. Brands from Prada and Burberry have adapted the trend by presenting long coats, belted at the waist for a more feminine look. If you prefer shorter coats then opt for a waist length shearling coat. Turn to Loewe, Joseph and Acne for short, understated shearlings.

Accessories We’re Obsessed With This Season

If you remember the 90’s then you remember Doc Martins, oversized biker jackets and of course chokers. Out of the 90’s sometimes-questionable trends we’re glad the choker is the one making a modern comeback. Celebrities and fashionistas from: Gigi Hadid, Rihanna and Kendall Jenner have been seen out and about wearing this falls coolest accessory. Choose from the classic, chic black choker or be a little brave and go for a metallic choker from Marni or Martin Margiela’s latest collections.

Falls shoe trends will surely bring a smile to your face. The block heel is replacing the stiletto for a more edgy shoe that will compliment your new military jacket or shearling coat. This seasons shoes have us hypnotized as brands from Tommy Hilfiger to Coach have come out with gold, sparkly and metallic heels. So not only will you be comfortable but its an easy way to make a statement, if you prefer prints then turn to Michael Kors Leopard print block booties.

If your style is a little more lady like and you take inspiration from the French-girl look, then look no further then slingback shoes. Chanel is an obvious advocate of this chic yet feminine look. We love their grey tweed version, which you can dress down with distressed jeans, or dress up with your favourite little black dress.

Layer chocker’s for an eclectic, cool look. Team them with a plunging neckline or off the shoulder top

Make a statement with an embellished or metallic choker and pair with a strapless black dress and sparkly stilettos for date night

Slingback shoes are perfect for work as they are comfortable yet chic, wear them with grey or black pants and a fitted turtleneck sweater for that French je ne sias quoi

Block heels are probably one of the most versatile styles of shoe. Wear block booties this fall, pick a unique style like velvet, sparkly or shearling

What To Wear This Festive Season

Velvet is used more creatively this season; turn it up a notch by buying a pair of velvet knee high boots. Pick a bright color; Anna Sui has the perfect red pair that will make you a head turner. Be a bit adventurous with your outfit instead of a classic velvet blazer feel like wonderwoman in a velvet cape like or high waisted velvet pants.

Sequins are always great for the festive season, be daring in a full sparkly sequin outfit by taking inspiration from Tory Burch who showcased a bold silver pant suit. If you’re scared of looking like a disco ball, a cool alternative is to add a sequin blazer over your dress or shiny heels such as the ones seen on Tommy Hilfiger’s runway. This season anything goes and everything sparkles: shiny make up dominated the runway. Make up was seen in models hair, eyebrows and eyelids on the runways of; Saint Laurent, Chanel and Marc Jacobs.

This season saw sparkly make up in places make up has never been, be brave and add some sparkle to your hair, lips or eyebrows this festive season

Plaid is taking on a new life this fall: think less Scottish kilt and more office chic. As seen across the runways of Carolina Herrera, Sophie Theallet and Jason Wu plaid has been given a twist by using it to create interesting shapes and cuts. Pair a plaid dress with patent shoes or plaid trousers with leather boots. Elongated waists are another way to give your plaid dress or shiny blazer a slight masculine edge. To stop yourself from drowning in fabric, pair a long sweater or duster coat with heels and high waisted jeans.

The sportswear trend doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. Yeezy Season 4 models looked trendy in long hoodies and sports pieces ranging from leggings to crop tops. Wear your hoody with knee high boots this fall for a sexy-sporty combo.
