Statement Accessories = Winter Survival. Stay warm look stylish.

Accessories offer the perfect opportunity to accent an outfit as boldly or as subtly as you dare, making them the perfect tool for dressing up a cover-it-all winter coat. This season, let your accessories do the talking.

Here are my favourite accessories, paired with my favourite winter coats. Stay warm, look stylish- all around win.

How to work a questionable Autumn trend- baggy Leather pants.

Emilio Pucci available at net-a-porter 

Ok well yes they look pretty sweet on the model here but I have to say I am not 100% sold on the whole baggy pants thingy that I am seeing these days. I am used to tight leather sexy pants (of course), but I feel like this kind of trend comes with rules. So lets get in.

1. Keep it light and airy on top. You don't want to look heavy or sweaty. 

2. Make sure you wear heels! No you cannot rock these with flats, pair with a nice strappy heel preferably one with a pop of colour (if the pants are black).

3. Do not double leather it. You don't want to look like Morpheous.

If you want to try the trend, you could get the exact same as the one above at net-a-porter, or for a more affordable solution, check out Zara's.

And on the plus side, no matter how you look, those leather pants will keep your legs nice and toasty this horrible winter. 

Get the Look, Celebrity inspired Fall/ Autumn what to wear.

I know its hard, but as the north wind grips round my neck as I write this, I think it is time to admit that Summer is over. So pack away your flip flops & brace yourself for the Celebrity best dressed, get the look fall edition. 

I love an A line skirt for that retro girl in the city breakfast at tiffany's feeling. It is just one of those staples a girl wont regret in her wardrobe. It can be teamed with a blouse for a look similar to Victoria Beckham here, or also goes well with a crop top.

Abigail Spencer wears my favourite colour of the season, mustard and pairs it expertly with a red lip.

Abigail's dress is from Michael Kors. I love Zaras cross over version with 3/4 length sleeves. The look can be dressed up with court shoes like Abigail, or dressed down for a chill laid back chic by wearing ankle boots like our lovely model here :)

LFW is Here ! Fashion week essentials

WOO! That time of year when the fabulous are let loose over London to view the best of the new is finally here. Yes that's it I am talking about London Fashion Week, and for those of you fierce enough to be strutting it a Somerset house, I have comprised a London Fashion Week guide to the fashionable wild.






1. HATER BLOCKERS

Maybe you who work in the industry, or maybe you have been front row making appearances like a rock star- either way after parties mean late nights, and you are going to need some sexy shades to cover those fashion week bags. I love these Francois ones from Wolf and Badger- perfectly on trend and stylish. Remember just because you are front row, doesn't mean they have got to know ;)



2. LASTING LIPS



Lips say attitude, I love to opt for a bold lip, but what ever the colour you cant have it colour fading- so get yourself some mac lip primer and some pro long-wear lip colour...



3. CONVERSATION STARTER PIECES



OOH darling, where did you get that? I love your this....blah blah blah - fashion people love to be impressed with original pieces, and its a great way to get the conversation started . Space your statement pieces across the week with different outfits, you don't want to overdo it so pick one or two (complementing) conversation starters ( Love that ETRO printed skirt)  and keep the rest stylishly simple.




THE L A W
.....

The most important thing at fashion week is to stand out- Baring this in mind it is still important that you remain 100% authentically you, as the judgmental fashion crowd accepts no imitations.

Good luck!



Lots of Love,



Lois Aymes Wilson
