Celine Necklace

From Kim Kardashian to Rihanna, socialites to fashionistas Celine's ID chain necklace is this fall's must have splurge! At a retail price of $1,795.00 this ID chain necklace does not come cheap however it has sold out of most stores and online stockists. It is available in gold (most popular) silver and rose gold. This is one item worth investing in!

High-Street Finds

As usual I have been busy searching for an affordable alternative! Check out cocoliberace.com from where I have purchased one in every color, I really like wearing them together for an extra chunky look. E-bay also has some good styles if you search under ID tag necklace and they are relatively inexpensive. Happy shopping !

Splurge vs Steal

I recently added a photo of toe-less knee high boots to my Facebook page. Harper's Bazaar have added a very similar pair on their page today, the difference is the Laurence Dacade pair that they posted costs a whopping $1,685 and the River Island pair I posted just $220.

Burberry Style Peplum Coat

The classic Burberry trench coat has been on my wish list for years now, but has always somehow managed to elude me.The classic no-frills model, just never makes it to the top of my wish list. There is always something more exciting that I am after.That all changed on a miserably wet day in Sydney, while all couped up indoors, I find myself daydreaming about frolicking in the rain in the gorgeous new trench from the Burberry Prorsum Fall 2012 collection.

It is quite possibly the coat of my dreams: there’s tweed, there’s a peplum and it is simply perfection. Sadly, this bad boy had to stay in my daydreams as it retails for about $2000. I have spent the last year trying to track down a high street equivalent to no avail. That was until I discovered a very similar coat online last week that retails for just $70. I teamed it with a red pencil skirt from Asos.

The Dark Arts

Trend Report

For Autum/Winter 2013 think fantasy,velvet, leather ,lace and opulent gold embellishment clothes that really cast a spell. Plum,ink, burgundy –fall’s color palette is as full-bodied as an Argentinian Malbec. Rich new color combinations like wine and blue are worth a try. Capes and fur (faux of course)will also be big. Team this look with a strong lip color such as plum, wine or red to be the ultimate vamp

The Peplum

Trend Report

Peplum-the clever little frill that extends from your waist to your hips and I believe it is the most flattering addition to any ladies closet. I am not talking 80's style ruffles, it’s more of a structured flounce that nips in at your waist (where it is the smallest) and flares out over your belly. Kim Kardashian wears it well and even Kate Middleton has been giving the peplum a go. A fitted skirt is the most popular way to work this look. Peplum is a runway style that's easy to pull off as the high streets flooded with good quality imitations.
