A/W 2018 Trends

I say trends, but these are not just one off trends. Every season I pick four key looks that will last in your wardrobe. This season has been full of things I already own or still to invest in.

The first big look for this season if you didn't know already is ANIMAL PRINT.
The stores are full of animal print, the leopard print has become a classic print over the years and will always be around. If you wanted to try something different, snake print and Zebra print is popping up too. Again, if you're not big on print try accessories, shoes are a great way to add a bit of detail to any outfit. If you wanted to invest in one animal print, make it a leopard print coat or shoes.

Second is BROWN TONES.
I don't own much of this colour, it's never been a colour I've been drawn too much unless it has other details/prints along with it. But saying that, I think I need a brown jumper in my life! Brown comes in so many different tones, invest in one that suits you.

The third is CHECKS.
Again something you may have in your wardrobe already, an investment piece to buy would be a coat or blazer, but loving the skirts and dresses!

Fourth is LEATHER.
A good quality leather biker jacket will last you years. Mine is nearly 10 years old, would definitely like to invest in another. It goes with most things and great for layering too. Another great buy would be a leather skirt and trousers.

Thanks for reading, and remember to raid your wardrobes as most people will own at least two of the above, don't buy if you don't need to only to update your wardrobe.
