I instantly fell in love with this fantastic pair of sandals from Topshop’s ‘Unique’ collection. They combine sophistication with a sporty street edge, a perfect choice of footwear to compliment the popular jumpsuit that looks to be a staple piece for autumn/winter.
If like me, you like to make a statement I would definitely opt for the electric blue pair, they’re sure to turn heads and would really spice up your wardrobe! However the white pair is just as fab and the neutral colour will go with pretty much everything!
Buy your own sports infused footwear today from Topshop online, they cost £85 and are crying out to strut the streets!

The one holiday accessory must have has to be a kaftan, I found this stunning Diane von Furstenberg Kamea maxi kaftan and must say would look great while taking a stroll along the beach or simply relaxing sipping cocktails by the pool. The maxi length is what attracted me and adds glam in seconds, slip on over your bikini and done! It can be easily accompanied by some gold chunky bangles to bring out the tones in the embroidered neck detail, and an oversized beach bag to finish the look off!
This maxi kaftan is demi-sheer with the wide three quarter length sleeves and side slits will leave you feeling very cool and look the part! Net-a-Porter is great for finding gorgeous pieces and this one costs £363.

I hear you asking where can I get my hands on a pair of these funky ‘Fit Flops?’ Well the answers simple; Net a porter of course!

As I mentioned previously I was ecstatic to find a new brand to get excited about and that brand was Camilla and Marc. Well much to my delight I have found another dress and this time it’s in my favourite strapless style.
The strapless dress in question is similar to the summer season’s dresses but has been revamped with a cobalt winter colour and a punky edge. The silk dupion mini dress has an organza bubble skirt, a fitted bust and is available at Net A Porter exclusively. Match with some black tights as pictured here or perhaps try some fishnets or leggings, either way it provides a super chic winter look.
Get your Camilla and Marc Charlotte mini dress at Net A Porter now costing £390.

As much as I love top stick with my favourite pair of skinny jeans for the autumn/winter months I can’t help but feel the attraction to these Miu Miu Checked cropped pants.
The Scottish inspired tartan check is back for fall and these will fly off the shelves. The multicolored pants are so funky and with the right top and shoes/ankle boot, they could make an outfit on there own. The stretch wool checked pants are slim leg, similar to skinny jeans so why not treat them as your new pair but stay safe with colours like black unless your very daring.
Get yourself a pair from Net A Porter now costing £240.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Bottega Veneta designs and I continue to be delighted by these new Bottega Veneta Glossy leather boots.
Perfect for the cold winter months the knee high Bottega boots provide sophisticated style, comfort and warmth. The boots simply pull on so are ideal to match with a pair of your favourite skinny jeans/leggings and sweater combo.
At £520 they are quite pricey but when you work out how much you would wear them compared to how much you pay it seems well worth it. Get yours from Net A Porter now.

Oscar de la Renta creates the most luxuriously beautiful dresses every season and to add to the long line of hits that I have wrote about before e.g. the bubble hem, this new creation lands on my web page.
A Oscar de la Renta Saffron floral dress in 50′s style complete with a pleated full skirt and high neck. Florals are set to stay in season and this mixture of colour has autumn and winter all over it rather than the summery light colours we got so use to seeing last season. Match with some black or red courts for the finishing touch.
A true work of art for your wardbrobe this fall, the Oscar de la Renta dress is avaiable at Net A Porter now, priced at £2,540.
