Leather fix


When it comes to leather... I find people seem to be a bit scared of it. Yes it can be riskaaay, but played right, leather can the most seductive, sexy stylish fabric going. This season, leather will play a BIG part in the trends, whether worn subtly in the day or upping the anti at night. 


I thought I would have a quick shifty round the high street to give you the best leather buys for AW13!

EFFORTLESS Day Wear

Leather look dungarees are perfect to wear in the day with a patterned shirt and heels for work or slouchy tee and trainers. Casual, but stylish.

Biker Jacket

Anyone who is anyone has a leather jacket, but this years tweeks to the classic jacket is larger spikier collars, less studs and a side zip, contributing to a simple but true biker look.

Cut Out Boots

Leather boots NEVER go out of fashion... they're classic and let's be honest last forever. I wear mine to death. But this year boots have boots have took an alternative twist. They look a bit like old fashioned school shoes, but with more substance to them. I find them quite feminine, which is a nice change to the heavy studded biker boots from last season. Topshop have the best cutout boots this season, with the best cut prices.


Who's wearing them

Leather jeans/ jeggings

That's right, they're back. Whether you prefer a structured pair of skinnys or jeggings/ leggings that have a bit more stretch, they're here to stay this season. Pair them with some tartan or an oversized jumper and beanie for a slouchy, cool look.

Sneek Peek at Rihanna's collection for River Island
































Rihanna is back for a second season with her cool and urban designs for River Island. SS13 collections included wispy maxi pinafores, watercolour print garments and grunge shirts attached to denim minis. The overall feel to the collection was sexy grunge with a hint of glamour and urban charm.


How does AW13 differ from SS13? 

This season, we're seeing a lot of camo and urban street garments from the photography campaigns.  






There's a certain "toughness" to the collection. Yes it's seductive, but not one glimmer of femininity is apparent. Instead the tone screams Attitude!
