Punk Princess

Tick off two trends and invest in a tartan pencil skirt. The figure skimming skirt shows off your feminine curves without having to freeze your little legs off in a mini. The 90s are still a huge influence this season and featured heavily at LWF. An array of models and street stylers were spotted reviving the era by wandering around Somerset House in tartan, studs and leather. Punk icons such as the Sex Pistols, Debbie Harry and Courtney Love appear to have inspired the latest collections hitting the catwalks. Team your tartan with with a simple black vest. Embellish your outfit in as many gold chains and studs you can find. Don't be scared to pile on the bling; more is definitely more. To finish off the look, rough up your hair and slick on a pair of over sized shades. Not only will they give you a cool rock star vibe - they do a pretty good job of a late night or two...

Stud and Deliver

Monochrome has always had the magic touch when it comes to keeping stylish. The minimal colour scheme keeps you looking cool without much effort. Season after season, models are seen sauntering down the runways wearing the basic colour combo. Black is sinfully slimming and a touch of white adds that extra pizazz to any outfit. This Winter, take a nod to the nineties and sport a neck skimming vest top. Add lashings of silver studs and chains and top the look of with some old school creepers. The 90s trainer is unbelievably comfortable; the thick sole not only cushions your step - it gives your legs a sneaky lift without even a hint of a heel. A touch of glamour can easily be incorporated to the look by draping a blazer over your shoulders (N.B. the wind may keep blowing it off so no one will judge if you decide to actually wear the jacket).

Stud And Deliver

Hello Lovelies,

The festival season has already began and the only way to show true appreciation to a summer of fields filled with rock gods, is to layer on lashings of studs. Don't be afraid to lavish this trend; bring in as many different accessories as you wish. If 'glamping' is more your style, Christian Louboutin has a gorgeous pair of red soled beauties that have killer impact. If your budget doesn't quite rival a rock star, missguided.com also have a stunning pair of heels for a fraction of the price.

There is a studded creation for everyone, from a princess pink headband with pointed studs to create an edge or full on shoulder blades as featured on the Topshop denim jacket bellow. The truly brave can channel Kanye West and sport a pair of studded sunglasses. If this style is not your thing, you can simply wrap your phone up in a demur studded case. Phones need outfits too y'know? ;)
