AW15 // Winter Trend Predictions

Fashion weeks all over the world are some of the most exciting times of the year. I LOVE following the main cities like Milan, Paris and even London. 

I picked up a few things out of London Fashion Week recently and I think these will be the big trends for our Autumn/Winter '15.

• Turtle necks are back.

Remember in the 90's how you cringed when your mum made you wear your turtle neck outside because it was so cold? well, now it's fashion darling! Popular designer Erdem showcased them on the catwalk as a mini polo-neck style dress. Sounds, urm, interesting doesn't it!

• Geek Chic

Big names in the fashion world like Gucci have taken us back to the classroom. Designer Orla Kiely even showed off her collection this year in a library. Now has never been a better time to pull out your glasses. Back in my day you would have been bullied for wearing them, but now you will be in style.

• Embrace the black lippy

This is going to be so hard for me personally to embrace, as I love nothing more than a bright coloured lip. But it's all about being dark and mysterious this winter. It kind of feels gloomy and I guess with the weather cooling it will get kind of dark. Here's a MOTD with a black lippy I recently tried (and to my surprise it actually looked OK. I wore it to the supermarket and no one said anything nasty, success!)

Here I have used 'BLACK' by drugstore brand Jordanna. A very affordable way to try new trends x

• Bubblegum jackets

I fell like I am contradicting myself with this statement considering I just said that black lippy was in! But believe it or not it's all about the candy pink coats. Bubblegum purple is another colour popping coat colour were sure to see a lot of.

• Stripes for life.

Horizontal, Vertical or Parallel.. it's all good! Stripes in any shape or colour are a go to outfit staple this winter. It's a nice way to add texture to an outfit without trying to hard.

So keep the make up dark and mysterious but brighten your outfit with a cute coat. 

The only trend I'm unsure I'll be able to pull off the is turtle neck shirt! 

What will you be wearing this winter? xxx
