Winter Coats!!| Fashion 2012| AW12

Most people hate winter cos you don't get to show off your fashion but I beg to differ!! Anyways that's not what this post is about lol. Everyone needs their statement winter coat cos it's the one thing you'll be wearing the most throughout the whole season. Here's a quick little guide to what coats you should be looking for when you look for you seasonal piece. I know leather is in but guys PLEASE put your leather biker jackets away! The ones with the studs/ spikes and even the fur! I know they are hot but they are SOOOO last year! *rolls eyes* lol .. (smile)

- LEATHER SLEEVES / LEATHER PANELED JACKET/ COAT
Like I said. Leather is in! lol It's been for over a year now (yaay). I'm loving the leather paneled sleeves. They are so chic and elegant. This style took over the catwalks for AW12! Sooooo many shops have these jackets so you wont have to worry about where to find them. (From Left- catwalk inspiration- Philip Lim, High Street -Zara £119).

TREND REPORT!! AW12| Fashion 2012| Fashion Week

Fall is fast approaching and I started researching! Ha! I don't wanna pack stuff I won't wear to Uni tbh. I just chose the TOP trends that I noticed were reoccurring in most shows.

Colours: Red, Berry && Purple
Look out for berry colours such as maroon and wine. Purple is also a colour pop for next season. (Designers from left; Jason Wu, DKNY & L'Wren Scott)

Kanye West!!

I must say I was completely shocked by Kanye West's fall 12 collection! There are some outfits that I loved. I really wasn't expecting that judging on his last ss12 collection. However I'm still rather disappointed that he stayed in the same lane with his style. A repeat of leather and fur and the same weirdly spiral shoes. I think he needs to explore a bit more as a fashion designer but I did like some of the pieces in the aw12 collection. The shows was quite exciting as it finished with speeding go-carts in the dark!

McQueen visors!!

Ok so it's not very often that catwalk stuff go for sale in stores. Thank God for high street replicas! These Alexander McQueen glasses (visors) as seen in the AW12/13 catwalk will be for sale! The theme for this show was futuristic and I presume they are UV protected. They are also crystal clear (complete opposite to how the appear to be). I personally wouldn't buy them but for some these will be in McQueen stores and the website for £270. Fear not those who think that's pricey.. Topshop will be selling replicas too.
