We're on our way to a magical start of the sweet-embers! 

Key trends that have been hot on the AW15 runways that you must consider and work into your super-stylish wardrobes ...

Fuzz, Fluff and All that Fur
Snuggle up and be cosy this Autumn/Winter by wrapping up in wools, shearling and all that fur. You cannot go wrong supporting the classic winter, fashionable fur jacket or snug coat. Or even invest in a classy stole and make your entrance. Go faux fur!

Leather Up Lady!
When it comes to leather - leather jackets are the ultimate go-to it is a classic piece that everyone must own but I'm loving the new spin on leather this season.. 
Designers explored and innovated leather into the turtleneck this AW15. Dark, Edgy and Sleek. Turtlenecks are hot on trend this season!

Retro 70s is back
This season also channels the stylish 70s look... Beautiful bohemian returns this autumn along with the stylish fringes, textures, florals, prints, flares and the art of layering up and clashing prints.
Burberry was fringing it - by also adding a touch of fringe detail to their chic shoes and to their bags by layering it over the print! How boho-stylish! 
Prep for the chills and spiral in layers...layer up you lovely free-spirited wanderers! Peace ☮

Librarian Chic, Nerd Chic  
From rocking the classy specs, smart, preppy dresses to pairing oversized knits with flowy, lengthy skirts... It's not always all boring and frigid - dress up to the look and stylise it to sexy-smart sophistication!

Still Cropping it!
Crop tops have been such a popular trend over the last two seasons, so fashionable - designers have adapted the trend to their AW15 lines.. Layering the cropped tops over shirt-dresses or long sleeved, tailored dresses is nice and cush way to stylise for the milder days and rock such a superchic look! I love the transition into knitwear.. Ingenious!

Materialistic 80s
Power shoulders and structures, tight waists, lace, power belts and alluring jumpsuits - do it with attitude. This season, ladies bring sexyback! 
It's all about lady power and sex appeal, inspired by and revisiting the 80s, the time that identified well with women, power-dressing and a really good working women's wardrobe.
Beautifully tailored, seductive 80s inspired pieces work their way through this AW 15 from hail Balmain who took it all the way and Christopher Kane, J.W. Anderson to name a few. 
Who run the world..Girls!

Suit up, unconventionally!
Take your tailoring to new heights and explore the avant garde-style. It is so hip and edgy with flowy, oversized and unconventional proportions - why not make a statement in the workplace?
Smart, Sexy and Ingenious.

Futuristic Vibes
Amidst of going retro and revisiting the past for inspo and re-innovating, designers are also on a mission to pioneer new looks. There's an array of different garment pieces exploring new cuts, colour playing and adding unique touches.

The Socialite
From the luncheons to fundraisers and social events - a lady must dress her best to represent herself to her best.
Simplicity plus elegance is a key trend to support - are you socialite-savvy? Emphasis was on the shoulder baring styles - off the shoulder, boat neck to décolletage-baring. Gloves definitely complemented this style of dress delightfully.

Smooth like Velvet
Soft but not subtle silhouettes were unveiled on runways this AW15 - go for something with minimal trims of velvet or simply wrap yourself all up in sweet velvet this season.

Powerful Patterns & Power Prints
Mesmerising, Colour-popped, Graphic prints..could you go head to toe print?

Medieval Romanticism
Who said century fashion was dated, in fact it never really goes away..that's the beauty of fashion. Seductive plum lips, intoxicating black lace and ruffles and beautiful, dramatic styles and silhouettes ...it's a dark, stylish and charismatic look, full of intrigue. Do you dare to try the gothic romance?
Vintage-style, dark, harmonious styles and colours...enter the realm of mystic panache!

Plaids, Tartans and Checks
The classic plaids, tartan, checks or whichever definition you go by is back this AW15 with a twist on the trend. Chanel added quilting into the mix - I am loving the funky, stylish colour combos. Go Check it!

Jeweller-ise!
Immerse yourself in jewellery and all that blings - remember, the more the better. 
Make a statement this season!
It's all about being anti-minimal when it comes to your jewellery chest this fall; it's all about statement jewellery, stacking and layering those rings, necklaces and lavish jewellery pieces. Put all those glitzy piercings on show and sparkle, shimmer and shine! 
And if you can be as bold as and go to the lengths as Givenchy did with piercings, bling galore and rocking the punk-style nose ring...think you can you rock the nose rings?
