While I love the sun I have to confess that autumn is my favourite fashion season. I have a weakness for coats and buy at least one (well maybe two) every season, so you can probably begin to imagine what my wardrobe looks like. I also love sumptuous winter knitwear and the thrill of splashing out on a pair of gorgeous leather boots and this year I’m on the look out for the perfect platform pair.
So, what’s trending for fall 2016 and what do we have for you to look forward to?
Well for starters it’s all about statement sleeves; extra long, billowing or bell, they’ve gone big this season. For winter coat inspiration it’s all about the puffa which has undergone a dramatic make-over and should be making its way straight into your winter wardrobe OR you could invest in a stylish tailored navy coat. Sleek or snug, which will you choose?
But before the temperatures drop you might fancy investing in a retro cape. Bang on trend and an easy wardrobe update. Key fabrics to look out for are faux fur, velvet, metallics, patent and pinstripes. And for anyone looking to channel a sportier vibe the good news is that the hoodie reigned supreme on the runway. Happy shopping!"
