Milan Fashion Week Day 5

TIP...I have layered a pussy bow blouse over my maxi skirt but with a pair of jeans underneath it makes the look wearable and the turban is a great headpiece that is a stylish alternative to an umbrella in the milan rain!

Milan Fashion Week Day 2

TIP...next season there seems to be a trend towards the tux so have added a tux jacket with jeans and a shirt and jumper but sticking to monochrome gives the look more impact and a fab pair of heels makes it all the more interesting!

Milan Fashion Week Day 1

TIP... this is probably one of the most amazing dresses I have seen but decided to turn 70's on its head and wear the dress as coat and grunge the look up with a baggy jumper, jeans and my boots but a couple of loose gold chains add a reminiscent touch

London Fashion Week Day 5

TIP...today I have mixed up my texture of leather, fur and cashmere as this is a big trend I have seen even during the aw11 shows the leather legwarmers are my key piece to modernise any outfit and the colours all remain neutral

London Fashion Week Day 3

TIP...colour blocking is best kept simple pick 3 colours and play around a bit like colour by numbers an accessory is good as a sole colour and have cut the lining out of the skirt to stop the fabric looking so heavy

London Fashion Week Day 1.....

TIP...today I have layered and old t-shirt over a chiffon dress to give it a more rock n' roll feel to the outfit but by adding heels still keeps the feminine side and stops the skirt looking too long and bulky and have layered gold chains to break up the black

The sleeveless jacket.....

TIP...this is my favourite collection for the summer just add any of these waistcoats to a pair of jeans or a loose gypsy skirt and the outfit has been simply updated with very little effort!

shoes by chrissie morris www.chrissiemorris.net

TIP...I love this waistcoat as it doubles up as a jacket and looks great layered with white underneath but added a long skirt with the open side to make this sexier and less formal

Neon.....

TIP...these chinos are a great way of wearing neon and the denim shirt makes the look more casual and wearable I added heels for a sexier image but turn the hems up to see the shoes

TIP...this is the ultimate dress for an event the neon allows the dress to be totally modern on a classic cut and wear with neon shoes to emphasize this

TIP...I loose oversized jumper is instantly updated with a neon skirt poking out from the hem and the scalloped edge makes the look more feminine clash your neons and wear a different colour shoe not good to be too matchy!
