Fashion Trends A/W 2009-10

Tweed is back! As demonstrated by many designers this season, including Luella, Pringle of Scotland and Burberry, tweed coats are the way forward. They look great thrown over jeans or a dress teamed with thigh high boots or thick opaque tights. To give your tweed coat a different look, wrap a patent belt over your waist which gives your body a great shape.

Hosiery is a fantastic way to brighten up any outfit, whether it be a jumper dress or shorts, legs deserve to be decorated. Lengthen your pins with stripes or add colour to a dark outfit.

Tweed, Hosiery and now Velvet - the 80's are definitely coming back! This time round though, Velvet isn't the frumpy, grandmother style we all have in mind, it's all about sophistication with sexy, sleek dresses giving that glamorous style. Jasper Conran Autumn/Winter collection show's a perfect example of what to be seen in this winter, a fatal black velvet dress paired with opaque tights looked stunning on the catwalk and it also would too at your Christmas party!
