Sci-Fi Season - Naomi

 Zara Metallic Co-ord

Vintage Grey Cardigan, Boohoo Clutch

H&M Black Boots

Quay Sunglasses

 

Sci fi metallics are set to play a big part for AW15 and I could not be more excited! I picked up this incredible pleated metallic co-ord from Zara and have full embraced in Sci-fi season!

I styled it up with an oversized grey cardigan for a cool texture mix and transitional dressing and finished it of with Quary pointed sunnies and monochrome clutch. Dress metallics down for the day by mixing them with denim and knitwear or invest into the trend simply with metallic accessories.

 

 

Sci-Fi Season - Amy

Zara Coat, Topshop Metallic Rollneck, Topshop Girlfriend Jeans, Marc Jacobs Sunglasses, Asos Embellished clutch, Clarks Boots

Tis' already the season for all things shiny with metallic sweeping it's way into every fashionistas wardrobe this Autumn. We wanted to show you how it can work in your every day wadrobes - there is no better way than getting some dazzle into direr autumn days with understated silvery tones, so don't feel like you need to wait until party season!

The polo neck is certainly the shape of the moment so this metallic Topshop number was the perfect piece to start with. I tried to keep the rest of the outfit super simple with just a plain black coat ('cape' sleeves allow the metallic to pop out a little more) my new favourite jeans and little black ankle boots. Sometimes less is definitely more but I had to add a statement clutch and a little fur collar too for interest!

How are you showing your shiny side?

Florals are my all time favourite print all year long, but they are great to brighten up those dull autumnal days and still feel that hint of summer. I have been absolutely swooning over everything in Zara recently and getting super excited about AW15. 

I picked up this amazing bell sleeve dress last week and also fell in love with the embroidered suede waistcoat which works so perfectly over it. This is one of my favourite outfits at the moment and perfect for the weather with wintery boots. I accessorised the look with my favourite Free People hat and white cut out clutch from Boohoo. I love the 70s influence running throughout with the bell sleeves and waistcoat and it's such an easy wear. 

What prints are you loving for AW15?

Lunatic Fringe - Amy

Lindsey Lohan x Lavish Alice Tassle Tunic, Topshop Houndstooth Trousers, Ray Ban Sunglasses, Zara Bag, Topshop Shoes

We love a good celebrity collab and were super excited to hear that no other than Lindsey Lohan had joined forces with one of our favourite brands Lavish Alice for a beautiful moden bohemian collection this Autumn, The pieces boast the ultimate statements with slick stripes and cool coords, but our favourite being these amazing statement tassles, the perfect piece for day-to-night dressing.

For my 'day' look, I layered the block coloured tunic over printed trousers (cannot get enough of dogtooth atm!) which works so perfectly in this transitional weather and went for a statement red bag to add colour and vibrance to the look. At night time, it is so easy to switch from trousers to tights for a super easy yet sexyyy outfit for a date night, drinks or a dance!!

Who's been your favourite celeb collab to date? After this collection, LL x LA is certainly a contender!

This time of year I get so excited for AW trends and planning for the season ahead. We found the latest ASOS Magazine so inspirational for AW15 trends and couldn't wait to get stuck in. One trend that stood out as a favourite was definitely the shade of the season ahead, brown! Seen everywhere with the latest 70s obsession and bits have started coming through thick and fast on the high street.

I picked up a few new bits from Zara which worked perfectly for the brown trend which were this amazing high neck top which is perfect for autumnal layering and this amazing striped pleated skirt, both Zara! I thought it looked great teamed with my favourite ASOS Suede jacket for that perfect retro 70s edge. Finishing of with a cute brown bag from Smashglam and my favourite Orla heels.

Wha' are you most excited about for AW15?

AW15 Best Buys

Seeing as it's super dreary outside, we thought we'd allow ourselves to get excited about Autumn Winter in the only way we know how! - through our wardrobes! Now the sales are deminishing, they've made way for all the warm and wonderful new season pieces so we thought we'd share our favourite so far in our AW15 Best Buys -

Topshop Cord Dungarees - Marks and Spencer Knitted Tee - Kate Spade Watch - H&M Coat

Zara Leather Bag - Topshop Coatigan - Topshop Floral Dress - Clarks X Orla Kiely Shoes - Topshop Cord Dress - River Island Scarf

Amy Says: My absolute most favourite thing about AW clothing is the combination of warming colour palletes and textures and this year certainly does not disappoint! Cord features heavily through Topshop's New In page in an array of rusts, camels and caramel colours which I love and knitted tees seem to be coming a bit of a thing for me! With this M&S number being my latest. Clarks have just announced details of their final collection with Orla Kiely for all you fall footwear needs and I'm keeping accessories slick and simple this year with sutble rather than statement details.

 

Zara Tank Top - Zara Floral Blouse - Zara Patent Boots - Zara Velvet Floral Trousers - Zara Leather Hat - New Look Patchwork Bag - Topshop Vinyl Coat - ASOS Geo Print Crop Top  - Topshop Limited Edition Boots - Mango Fringed Jacket

Naomi Says: This time of year I always get so excited about stocking up for autumn and as the stores are filling up with amazing AW15 pieces it's time to jump on the bandwagon and stock up early. A lot of these pieces you can start to wear now in a more summery way but these are my absolute must-haves come August pay day. I am literally head over heels for Zara who are killing it for AW15 and definitely my ones to watch!

Tight Knit - Amy

Topshop Boutique Crochet Knit Top, Zara Embroidery Angalise Blouse, Topshop Denim Skirt, Ray Ban Sunglasses, Orla Kiely Bibi Shoes

Just because it's 'summer', it doesn't mean the knitwear has to be kept under lock and key for the season. I am a huuggee fan of knitwear all year around, so a little bit of warmth isn't going to stop me! It's just knowing how to play the game - crochet knits always tend to be lighter so are perfect for summer days (especially in good ol' blighty) and even better to carry you into the night too so are the ideal place to start when it comes to adding some playful textures (that aren't suede!) into your S/S wardrobes.

I'd had my eye on this cute little tee for a while and my patience paid off as it went into the sale! The light pastels suit summer colour palettes and the layering oppotunities with this beaut will carry you through every season very happily! For this look, I popped it over this beautiful Zara blouse, another airy layer to the outfit that certainly didn't feel too heavy yet still had maximum interest. To finish off with a retro vibe, I picked out the pink and went for my Orla Bibi's that matched perfectly.

How do you wear your knitwear in summer?
