Burberry

As the Leading London Personal Stylist I take people for Personal Shopping on a daily basis. This gives me a unique take on the clothes that worked the best for my clients in 2010. Here are the all star buys. The Military Jacket from Balmain, Burberry (shown here) or from high street superstar Pinko. This is a trend that is easy to wear and will last for many seasons to come.

Next on my list is the shearling jacket. This is more “fashion” than the military jacket and will date but it is fun, warm and chic to wear. Shown here from Balmain, also Burberry my high street favourite is at Emporio Armani also in black with black shearling. Nice versions are at Acne, Joseph and Top Shop.

Top of my absolute faves this year is this stunning dress from Lanvin. Look for skirts from Carven featuring the ruffle or the full dress. My favourite, beautifully cut and in the stores now is this from Aqua for £135.

Aqua

For wonderful wearable shoes influenced by the madmen 50’s style look no further than Louis Vuitton, Roger Vivier or Prada. These are Louis Vuitton Beauty pumps.

Louis Vuitton

Celine has investment buys. Look no further for drop dead style from Phoebe Philo.

Celine

Or buy a classic camel coat from Max Mara or Chloe. This is so elegant and beautiful and will last and last. Particularly suits spring colouring.

Chloe

For a great dress that will take you into Spring Summer try Gucci at net-a-porter sale..

Taller ladies suit these amazing draped styles. Lanvin, Roland Mouret all have great ones now on sale. For high street versions my favourite is at Ted Baker.

FUR MANIA: Warm Shape to the Season

Already thinking about the temperatures plummet to below freezing we are all looking for something chic to wear which will also keep us warm.

Michael Kors AW09

Fur is back in a big way, presented on AW 09/10 collections in bold colours, shapes, and sizes both real or faux.

Christian Dior AW09

( Of course, despite such popularity as a trend it remains a controversial material and you can expect an increase in the antics of groups such as PETA as a result.)

Michael Kors AW09

For AW 09/10 season, fur it is not just about coat or jacket: designers were so creative and gave it a new shape and visual interest in using it to emphasize collars and cuffs, sleeves and pockets, borders and edges and combining it with materials such as fabric or leather in innovative ways.
