Back to Basic's for Autumn/Winter!

Well, the temperature has certainly dropped over the last few weeks. Winter is approaching. But that means Winter Fashion! YAY!

Floral Peter Pan Collar from Forever 21 £7

Audrey would approve!

There are many fashion trends gracing us with their presence this season and many of them are worthy of our time, but you need to get your basics right first. The plain white T-shirt, the little black dress, the perfect pair of jeans. These are all a solid foundation to any wardrobe but a T-shirt and jeans alone are not going to score you any Brownie points! There is however a simple way to renovate the basic staple pieces in your wardrobe with a vintage twist..... The humble and effective collar.

Mui Mui Feather Collar £440

The look is timeless and can make the simplest of garments chic. It is a trend that is spilling over into Autumn/Winter and they seem to be getting bigger and more glamorous the nearer we get to Christmas.

Animal Print Leather Collar from Miss Selfridge £20

 It's a perfect solution to the 'I have nothing to wear' syndrome. When you have got to brave the elements and your only welcoming clothes are your PJ's, strip it back to basics with a  jumper jeans or a tunic or dress with your thickest tights. Then just add your collar. Stylish. Sophisticated. Simple! And most importantly, warm! Dress it up or down, day or night.

Keep warm Guys!
