So it's coming to that time of year again where the nights are drawing in and the shops are changing seasons, so it's safe to say autumn is on its way. For those that are sad :( about the end of summer never fear the weather is still looking good for the next few weeks and autumn is just another great excuse to buy new key pieces or a whole new wardrobe!
When a new season approaches i think its important to invest in some key pieces that you can update your wardrobe with, this way you don't have to go crazy and buy everything leaving you with little or no money, these key new products can freshen up your wardrobe and of course you'll be on trend!
Tops - Always a core product to have in your closet. I have chosen two key shapes that are going to be big for the AW13 season. Firstly there is the woven vest, which is all about a loose fit, casual detailing and it can work well with tailored separates. Asos and Topshop have some great styles that you can buy in store and online now! The second key shape for AW13 is the boyish shirt which have a slimline look with contrasting detailing giving off an androgynous feel. Again ASOS and Topshop have some great shirts that are in store now.
Dresses - Wearing dresses in autumn can still make it feel like summer, and they are good pieces to just throw on if your in a rush. The two key shapes for dresses in AW13 are:
Narrow shirt dress - This is basically a t-shirt dress, nice, simple and easy for all shapes and sizes to wear day or night. I love these dresses and theres some really great versions on the high street now in River Island and ASOS.
Grunge Maxi - Maxi dresses were a big trend in spring summer and will be in autumn winter too. This seasons maxi though is more covered up (good for the cold weather) and has a grunge vibe with the long-seleeves. Maxi dresses can be found all over the high street but two that i really liked for the new season can be found at New Look and ASOS.
Trousers - This seasons must have trousers are all about the long and lean straight leg look. Great for both work and nights out as many stores are designing them in great patterns that make them very fashion forward. I think this is one trend that will definitely last the whole AW13 season.
Shop this trend at:
ASOS
Boohoo
Zara
Topshop
Coats - I love a good coat, one that will keep you nice and warm in the winter months but then also look fashionable and on trend. I know it's weird to be buying coats now when the weather is nice and warm but the stores have some great coats out at the minute so go get them before they sell out.
The two key trends I have chosen for AW13 are the tulip coat, which is like the classic mac but retailers are adding cool design details like leather and belts. The second trend is the Oversized Cocoon coat which has a vintage feel, and the oversized coat can be found all over the high street right now. You can purchase the below looks at:
Topshop
ASOS
French connection

Warehouse
I hope now you all feel up to date with the key trends and shapes for the AW13 season and are excited to buy some fabulous new pieces. Let me know if you buy any i have suggested.
Happy shopping!!
