Summer Coats.....

TIP...go for pastels and pick a great silhouette shape in a cool colour like green and wear with another pastel like this gorgeous lemon jumpsuit add a heel and a fun pair of sunnies to compliment the colour of the coat the 3/4 length always works well with a jumpsuit

TIP...I love this pale blue take of a trench its a looser fit to a normal trench so keep the outfit loose and laid back and layer a jumper over a soft dress throw the coat on with a pair of heels in the same colour

TIP...I love the faded square print of these jeans but have livened it up with a bright yellow coat and matching shirt a kooky take on a minimalist shape coat as the collar of the shirt can act at a collar to the coat wear with colourful high top trainers

paris last day!

TIP...although I have worn this outfit before I have added a loose silk blouse and left it undone to act like a cardigan but is less bulky and more glamourous

Milan Fashion Week Day 5.....

TIP...grunge up a neon dress and wear with a big jumper and heavy boots and the beeny hat give it the 90's twist but if you want to wear a coat why not try a big black loosely shaped overcoat, let the neon do the talking

Milan Fashion Week.....

TIP...a printed trouser suit is a perfect way to wear a print trend wear with a t-shirt for a laid back look or clash your prints with a crazy shirt and have worn my favourite shoes of the season in orange to give the outfit a extra colour (plus look out for metal toes again seen at marni today)

The Brits.....

TIP...going to the Brit awards on Tuesday night I opted for a long dress with heavy boots so that I look half way between dressed up and dressed down the metallic heels make the boots appear dressier and the heavy metal necklace completes the monochrome look! the bag is a wash bag that I double up as a good evening bag

London Fashion Week Day 5.....

TIP...today I have opted for an all red look layering a jumper over a sheer dress but have toughened it all up with a long leather coat (leather is a big deal again next winter) and added my rock boots and again working in a new accessory means the look is relevant for now!
