Fashion -The latest looks and where to buy them - at good value prices
Fashion is fun and as trends are usually only around for one season at a time
(barring the
classics) here is a selection of high fashion at high street prices.
This site changes monthly. Here are December’s recommendations.
Skinny jeans – the latest craze in female fashion is to ditch your bootlegs in favour of the skinny. The classic bootleg trouser, which gave women with a normal hour glass figure, a more flattering shape, is being replaced by the drainpipe. Tucked into knee length boots, the skinny was popularised by skinny model Kate Moss, who, whilst the first to set the trend, was recently heard complaining that ‘everyone’ seems to be wearing the skinny now. Great if you’ve got the legs for it, not so great if you sport ham shanks. But even if you have, there is no denying that skinny jeans are definitely sexier than their baggier cousins.
Further trends to look out for are Beatnik jumpers (Top Shop). Sloppy and black and white stripy think Brigit Bardot in the sixties. The latest icon - we choose the term lightly - to don the Beatnik Sloppy Joe, is Coleen McLoughlin whose footballer boyfriend, Wayne Rooney plays for England.
And if you’ve got the legs for it, tweed shorts (Marks and Spencer) can look oh so cute underneath a big military coat (H&M), another of this season’s popular looks. When it comes to outdoor clothing, the cape (Next), has also become an unlikely fashion staple this season – again – Kate Moss has set the trend, wearing the new look with skinny jeans and boots.
The return of the curvy 1940s inspired figure is also back with a selection of outfits including the figure hugging pencil skirt and blouse for office wear. Hobbs and Marks and Spencer have a selection of outfits to choose from.
And if the Bo-Ho look of summer is hard to leave behind, the Russian skirt Is a good alternative for winter available at stores such as H&M this winter.
Before we go, we can’t possibly miss out on the biggest event of the year – Christmas. Party frocks worth a look can be seen at shops like Marks and Spencer’s, Next, Oasis and Wallis, but we can’t go without mentioning the find of the season. An Emerald Green chiffon style party frock straight off the catwalk at Asda can be found for under £40 – but hurry, we predict they’ll be gone before you’ve put up your tinsel.
