Naomi's Week In Style



Now is the time to be buying into those A/W key pieces, over the last week few weeks you can now really see the trends start to develop and the key pieces to come through! It may be tropical weather outside but this is the time to start creating your amazing A/W wardrobe and be one step ahead! WARNING: This features a lot of Topshop (the product it just to good!!)

1. Topshop Oriental Trouser

I love a printed trouser and when this came in earlier this week I knew it was a purchase! The gorgeous oriental style print with the rich green colour is really original and striking which also comes in a dress! I think there great to wear now but also great for winter with boots and knitwear! 

2. Boutique PVC Skirt 

Since the Topshop A/W Unique Show PVC is something everyone will be buying into next season! Whether it be jackets, skirts or bags Topshop have got it covered especially with this Boutique grey mini! Snap it up before it sells out! Would look perfect with opaque black tights a killer boot and oversize knit for winter! 

3. Zara Statement Necklace 

There is never a time where I don't want the whole Zara jewellery collection and the new collection never fails to amaze! What arguably Zara do best and for amazing prices... Statement necklaces! Is one is just stunning with its baroque and pearl design- a definite show stopper for next season! Wear with a shirt, jumper and statement trouser for a A/W ready outfit! 

4. Topshop Tulle Midi Dress

The simplicity of this dress yet the possibilities make this high up on my wantlist! Reminds me of the opening for Sex And The City where SJP wears the little pink tutu dress! For me I see it styled up with a chunky black boot, grungy tee or jumper over it and some fishnets! 

5. Zara Blazer & Skirt Co-ord

From the new collection this co-ord from Zara is super cute and perfect for next season! Throw on with jersey or knitwear underneath and focus on accessories! Amazing bag, boots and statement necklace! Such an easy outfit to look amazing and premium.

6. Topshop Premium Aztec Sequin Jacket

I'm like a magpie when it comes to sequins and sparkly things and I love colour so this jacket ticks all boxes for me! Quite an old piece but still perfect for the rest of summer and when it starts to get a bit cooler! It speaks for itself so I think a clean tailored outfit underneath with a nice clutch and heels would be a head turner! 

7. Topshop Gold Sunnies 

Stunning shape and really quirky these are fab for our blog posts! We are wearing sunnies on nearly every shoot at the moment as the weather has been so fab and I think they really finish of summer looks. We are always looking for new shapes and quirky designs and Topshop are always w,axing for that and there always good value at £16! 

8. Nasty Gal Flatforms 

Since JW Anderson for Topshop brought out similar last season I have been after some Flatforms! I love the simplicity yet modern twist on these and think for winter with socks and tights would look great and a different alternative to boots which I always wear! 

9. Topshop Fur Jacket 

The fur has started to hit down.... Can you believe it?? But I am so excited by big, crazy, over the top fur jackets so this pleased me a lot! In true Topshop style this is no exception with its thick fur and gorgeous rich colour it would look great with a printed dress underneath and boots! I think I'm going to need a new wardrobe for my fur jackets this year!

East Meets West- Naomi

Topshop Oriental Print Top, Topshop Oriental Pelmet Skirt, Topshop Boutique Floral Maxi Dress, Topshop Neon Floral Necklace, Mac Rebel Lipstick, Nasty Gal Sunglasses, Topshop Black Sandals, Topshop Kate Moss Leather Jacket








This trend is every fashionistas oriental dream! Think clashing prints in silky fabrics, neon statement jewellery, your coolest sunnies and of course a high side pony tail which I am definitely going to be sporting this summer. The trick with the clashing prints is to try and pick out the same colours in each piece or add in a bright statement necklace will bring all the colours together in the outfit. Also for a quick and cheap oriental touch use your old floral silk scarves tied round waist as a sash/belt. Don't be scared to experiment with this trend and have fun with the prints.

I love all the silky fabrics and floaty kimono esq pieces that make this trend feel premium but so cool and fresh for the season. In this weeks magazines there has been lots of oriental references and product coming through on the high street especially Topshop launching 'East Meet West'. Head down to Oxford Circus and look at the window to gather your inspiration for how to wear- I promise you if you go in you won't come out empty handed.. Dangerous!

To tone the the trend down buy into it with an oriental print kimono, a wide leg statement printed trouser and throw on a leather jacket- buy statement pieces in oriental print and mix in with your own wardrobe. Or if your like me and like to go a bit mental wear it all together! Go for really dark lips to finish of the look and a killer shoe. Print and floaty fabrics with an eastern feel are a winner in my eyes and this look and trend makes me very excited for the season ahead... Roll on summer....
