Impress for Less: Trend Alert AW13

The AW13 and LFW catwalks have revealed a wide variation of trends, taking style inspiration from grannies to grunge. I'm going to look at my favourite few leaving you some cheaper options and tips on how to pull it off. Click on the links to buy.







This candy coloured trend was seen all over the catwalk. 
How to wear: Try an oversized, pink, wool coat with a mini dress and a pair of chunky detail shoes, then top it all off with a leather bag to match. 
Also great with: Navy, another colour trend this season.



With the grunge trend going strong, leather is a great way to toughen up any outfit.
How to wear: Take it up a notch by rocking some coloured leather instead of all black for a luxury look. A splash of colour will surely make you stand out this season but if you're not fully confident jumping right in to a lime green coat, how about starting with an item consisting of leather/ wet look elements and getting bolder with each purchase. Primark is overflowing with wearable leather pieces but, without an internet store, it's difficult to find images so definitely go check out the stores.
Also great with: Denim and tartan which are both great if you're going for a grunge, punk or 90s look.


Whether it's chic and tailored like Balmain's collection or loud and extravagant like Alexander McQueen's AW13/14 catwalk , embellishment is a sure way to project a powerful and glamorous image. It's time to shine!
How to wear: I think that matching cream, black and gold is the best way to wear this. Top up on chunky jewelled accessories for a night time look.
Also great with: An oversized leather jacket to rough up the feminine look.


So they're my top three looks at the moment. I'm also loving the punk tartan trend, oversized clothing and heavy knitwear. What about you?

Stay beautiful,
