There are a few labels that have our full attention this season, such as bStore for example. The label has only recently revealed a pair of pretty snazzy tassel loafers, which act as a great alternative to ballet pumps and are right on trend for this season.

The cow print pair has to be our favourites and look just adorable with cutesy school girl grey tights or alternatively super tight skinnies and a cutesy tee.

The tassel-laden loafers are available at the goodhoodstore.com and should be a must-have on your Christmas wish list. These nifty little numbers will set you back £218; well worth it I think you will agree.

Another label that is working the preppy chick look is Isabel Marant for Gap. Her collaborations with the high street chain have produced a cutesy fun tee that will go with absolutely anything from skirts to jeans and leggings and skinnies.

The cute tee is also for a great world cause and proceeds will go to World AIDS day.

The must-have tee will hit Gap stores this week and will be under their RED section. The tee starts at just £24.95! A great little stocking filler!

Pomellato are another label that have our full attention this season! The designers’ all-new collection of Nudo rings has in fact got better!

The new Nudo has in fact been seen sporting an over sized stone! This is certainly one to give to that someone special or alternatively put on your own Christmas wish list! Only very good girls should expect to receive one of these beauties!

The rings are a little on the pricy side but will definitely act as a keepsake! Check out your local jewellers or any designer boutiques stocking the brand. With colours ranging from deep sapphire and orange to purples and green.

Shopping online acts as an answered prayer to the busy fashionista! Those that operate a hectic schedule and a heavy workload will know that trying to hit the shops is a rare treat!

This is where clicking to it comes to play, simply scroll through a number of outfits at your favourite online venue and pop any that take your fantasy into your virtual basket!

Gone are the endless queues, the fights with fellow fashionista’s and the aching arms. All of the above is instead replaced with a calm and carefree shopping experience that can be approached from the comfort of your own home!

Chill out in your comfiest clobber; grab a cuppa and scroll through dresses, tees, skirts, heels and accessories until you find the perfect attire to suit your style.

The best thing about shopping online is that you will be so much more likely to source your size, the choice is vast and both the colour and style you want will most likely be featured at the online venue if not in the actual high street store.

Most of the favourite high street venues have online venues and such sites will feature a lot more gear than is actually in store. They generally deliver worldwide and if an order is placed before a certain time, customers will often receive their purchases in a matter of days, meaning you will be wearing your new attire in no time!

Just as high street shops feature sales, so do the online venues. This is great for those that hate crowds or unordered attire! Fashionista’s are able to enter their size and the site will bring up all the sale items that are available in that exact size. This saves both time and prevents any unwanted stress or disappointment, the last thing a customer wants to do is search through rails of clothes for hours on end and never actual find a size to fit them!

We all need a little help from time to time when it comes to being style savvy!

So what should we be looking for this season? Well now that the cool weather is fast approaching, we need to start thinking about a few winter investments.

Good quality boots are a must and should be chosen with care. Think about comfort and fit as well as look.

Investing in a pair that look super stylish but are in fact a chore to walk in most certainly won’t be suited to those cold days. Think about the fabric as this really does matter!

Buying a pair of gorgeous suede boots and then wearing them in the wet weather is a disaster waiting happen!
Other things to invest in include a great hat! Make a statement with this accessory and let it do all the talking! There are some really cute fur embellished pieces available that include ear covers, to ensure you are super toasty this coming winter season!

With Christmas fast approaching, we are all starting to think about what to treat our loved ones too!

Whether its a trip away, a bag they have been drooling over all season or a new piece of jewellery, you can guarantee to find it online!

Online shopping is an easy and hassle free to purchase all your Christmas goods! Not only do you bypass the hectic queues and city centres, you will also bypass bag carrying duty!

Items ordered online are often delivered to you door in a matter of days, meaning you don’t even need to leave the house in order to source them! There are an array of online departments that stock all of the latest designer clobber and it is all laid out in an ordered fashion!

Ordering clothes online has never been easier and is very much the way to shop these days. Those that click and buy online can enjoy a world of benefits, such as bypassing the queues for one thing!

No longer do you have to wait in endless queues in order to purchase that one item!

Simply choose from an orderly queue of items featured at any one online store, pop them into your online virtual basket and they will be delivered to your door, sometimes even the next day.

The 1940’s was a distinctive period of time for fashion worldwide. Many of the fashionable figures of the decade remain icons in the present day, and now that we have developed such a major passion for vintage clothing, 40’s glamour is making a huge comeback. The key to 40’s glamour is adding a little bit of elegance and luxury to your everyday look, without looking out of place. This is a look characterised by fixed outlines, strong silhouettes and lots of attention to detail. You can gather inspiration from films and photo shoots inspired by the period.

Think about the kind of clothing you already own that can become components of your 40’s style, and then add to them with a range of new items and accessories. Look for clothes that are striking in their shape and form, in rich, warm colours like burgundy, navy blue, even dark brown. For a more formal 40’s style you can go softer with delicate materials such as taffeta and lace, in lighter shades. If you’re really wanting to capture the style of the decade, remember that skirts shouldn’t exceed knee length!

A great place to look for vintage and retro clothing to help expand your 40’s glamour look is your local charity or second hand store. These can often be treasure troves for vintage clothes, if you’re willing to put in the effort to look. You don’t have to find actual clothing from the 40’s, or even clothing made with the 40’s in mind – just familiarise yourself with the look and feel of the era and you should be able to identify compatible items.

One essential rule for a 40’s look – make sure that you cinch at the waist! Go for high-waisted skirts and trousers that pull in around the waist, or add a belt or cincher to draw the lines of your clothing in, creating a striking silhouette.

We all know men can be babies when it comes to shopping. Traipsing around shops that have all the same styles (so it seems), having to try everything on, lugging heavy bags from place to place, getting trampled and pushed by other shoppers… Actually, maybe you have a point guys.

Online shopping is so much easier, you do it from the comfort of your own home, with a coffee nearby and you get to look at the selection available without getting pushed aside by frantic females. And if one shop doesn’t have what you’re looking for – you just click a button and you’re in another. No fuss.

So, where do you go for the best selection? A lot of online shops seems to cater mostly for women, right? Well, yes. That is true but if you know where to look, there are just as many that will flatter your masculine style and keep you looking and feeling great.

If you love your designer labels, mainlinemenswear.co.uk is the store for you. They offer everything from designer jeans to mens casual shirts to accessories and footwear. There’s a variety of delivery options and the order tracking feature is great if you need to see where your items are.

Joe Brown offers something a bit different if you like to stand out from the crowd and be a leader instead of a follower. The website is very easy to navigate and even has a handy gift ideas section – ideal for christmas presents! And you can order a traditional catalogue to browse at your leisure.

For a site that has everything in one, try somucheasier.co.uk. They have a selection from the top menswear shops all in one place, so you can browse easily and cut down on your online time. You might even end up picking up a bargain!

There are plenty of trends to choose from this winter, some carrying on from spring/summer 2011 and a few that are the sole province of winter. Perhaps the most practical look for this year is the over sized coat.

Ideal for wearing either to work, over your business suit and combined with a big warm scarf and gloves, or for more casual days when you want to layer up and avoid the frigid temperatures, this trend will keep the cold where it belongs and you’ll look great to boot.

If you decide to go for the other huge trend this winter – androgeny – then this look will be right up your alley. Keep the cut simple and ever so slightly masculine or you can go all out and buy a coat meant for men. The boxy style lends itself very well to the androgenous look.

If however, you feel that going all out male is not for you – and it’s not for everyone, this is a difficult style to carry off – there are loads of more fitted, feminine versions with everything from faux fur to sequinned details.

If you like to make a statement with your winter wardrobe, this cut will look fantastic with a bold animal print, making sure you stand out from the crowd.

There are loads of websites that will offer great bargains and make sure you know exactly what you’re looking for, but if you would rather curl up with a hot coffee then the Ellos catalogue could be just what you’re looking for. Ellos have a huge selection of winter coats and the over sized trend is very apparent. The vast selection of materials, ranging from wool mix to leather, and the colours and prints available will ensure you find a coat that you will love and that will be bang up to date for this winter trend.
