Are Navy, Green and Oxblood the only colours we need for autumn?

Are navy blue, bottle green and oxblood red the only autumnal colours we need this season? 

Autumn has arrived and we have finally said goodbye to our summer wardrobes and pulled out our autumn favourites. Whatever colours they may be, a flick through this mornings Sunday Times Style and a trawl around the high street yesterday show these three colours are going to get your style on point for Autumn Winter 2015.  
No matter what your style is, darker colours and a multitude of textures are something we turn to when the days grow shorter, nights turn longer and the weather feels colder. 

Yesterdays jaunt showed the great British high street has endless offerings this season - see robe style, floor length wool coats at Topshop and Primark. Leather, suede and denim skirts at New look and H&M and bohemian floral printed dresses at Zara. 
For on trend and on price stylish pieces hit Primark and Dorothy Perkins. 

Happy Autumn Folks

It's all about street style

 

Fashion month is officially over so I figured what better way to celebrate then taking a look back at what the fashion glitterati wore to the shows.

An eclectic mix of style could only be found in London.

Hill and Friends

We all know the authentically British label Mulberry, over the last decade Mulberry has brought us some of the most stylish bags to date. That was all down to Emma Hill aka the women who reinvented Mulberry and made the brand what it is today. 
Last weekend at LFW Emma launched her hotly anticipated handbag collection named 'Hill and Friends' and it did not disappoint. 
The classic mulberry aesthetic she created is seen within the collection but with an element of fun. 
By fun I mean lots of bright colours - hot pink to be precise, bold prints and a post mans lock displaying a winking smiley face to finish. 
These together complement the classic shape and style perfectly.
The launch looked amazing and was held at Claridges. It included super cute mini ponies, pink iced biscuits and hotel bell boys draped in the Hill and Friends collection. 
The most amazing hand bag collection launch to date I would say!

Getting creative, or at least trying

Shirt | Urban Outfitters (boyfriends). Jeans (here), Shoes (similar here) & Bag (similar here) | Topshop 

I say getting creative what I mean is putting on a shirt backwards, but hey I'm always trying to differentiate the way I style up my/the boyfriends wardrobe staples. This is definitely different but I have to say I love it!
This weekend I also tried this look with a cotton striped shirt and skinny jeans which probably worked better due to the softer fabric but I just love a denim on denim ensemble. The look is finished off with these beautiful Topshop snake print platforms that give it that added (hot trend of the season) 70's vibe.

Something New

Mansur Gavriel SS16

This fashion season so far has been about discovering new designer talent. Yes we all love the classics Chloe, Burberry, Chanel. But I don't think you can beat finding something new! 

Today it's all about shoes shoes shoes! A few days ago whilst scrolling through my Instagram feed I saw the most incredible pair of blue suede mules. I instantly double clicked the image and carried on getting my lunchtime Instagram fix. A few days later with those shoes still on my mind I knew I had to find them. About an hour later (after scrolling through the feed of all those I follow) I found them!! 

It turns out there by handbag designer Mansur Gavriel - a designer I've never heard of until now, but one I hope to hear more about in the future. 
His designs are simple but unique. The bold colour and strong structure will give any outfit a modern twist. His designs are all about colour and shape - he has truly let the shoe speak for its self. 

I feel a high street replica coming our way next SS, or at least I hope so!
