Autumn/Winter 2010 Fashion Trend - The Cape

2010-09-01T03:56:00.000-07:00

Superwoman!
The cape has made a big comeback for Autumn/Winter 2010 and has been given a modern transformation as well. The cape coat has long been in and out of women’s fashion, but this season there has been a large backing by not only the premium designer houses, but the high street as well. Yes, the cape is about to become mainstream, and I think it is a perfect way to update your Autumn/Winter wardrobe this year.

The cape is fun, versatile and is THE ultimate “throw on and go” piece. This can be used in all your casual outfits these coming seasons and if you pick the right colour, it can easily be adapted to any trend you throw at it. For this reason I am recommending you pick timeless colours such as black, grey and navy or the new camel colours (which are a big trend piece). Try to keep detailing subtle, and it will allow you to pair it with any item you have in your wardrobe in order to create new outfits and looks on the fly as the new trends develop.

Capes on the Runways
As you can see below, many of the major premium designers featured capes in their A/W 10 previews. Below you will find examples from Alexander Wang, Etro, Missoni, Yves Saint Laurent, Celine, Rag & Bone, Jaeger London and many more. They came in all styles, shapes and sizes, which means there is bound to be one which matches your wardrobe and flatters your figure:

How to Wear!
While the runway looks above can provide inspiration to how to adapt trends to our wardrobe, often they are not accessible to the everyday woman’s sense of style or even body shape. However the cape is wonderfully versatile and can be paired with what you already have in your wardrobe. For day time looks, think about throwing the cape on over a simple top or knitwear should the weather be cold. Use skinny jeans, shorts, pencil, a-line or even mini skirts for your bottom half as they will all look great against the contrast of the cape’s volume on the top half. Cape coats create a really dramatic top heavy silhouette that cannot fail to be noticed.

If you want to add some chic for a nightime date or event, then simply throw your cape on over the top of a badydoll or statement dress, match with heels and clutch – you have an elegant look with has an added edge and high fashion feel to it. Plus it will subtly show off just enough flesh on your bottom half to keep eyes firmly on you.

Get them!
There are plenty of fashionable capes on StarPlaza. All you have to do is, choose the right cape for your body type!

New LE Fall 2010 Store!

2010-08-31T10:58:00.000-07:00

Everything started with EXCLUSIVE NEWS from Stardoll Royalty club, LE NEWS!

The brand new collection of LIMITED EDITION has arrived and milions of Stardoll Members had been waiting for this amazing season of the year. The collection is absolutely fabulous and it is totally different from the others previous collections of LE; brocade cycling shorts, pleated kilt-cum-belts, army-pocketed jackets, neon and nude camouflage slipdresses, and LV-stamped ombré-dyed denim looks with fringed edges.

Firstly, when we see the collection, we think about groves, forests and warm colours. Have you noticed that these warm colours are all from the Atumn season? Brown, violet, grey, etc.. And let's not forget that this was the very first time ever that LE used the complexity of the "fur" ideia. And we can see that by the Louis Vuitton Fur keychans and the phenomenal and sophisticated high knee boots.

The animal attitude and discipline of this LE collection rules over all other StarPlaza brands. These unique pieces make all LE addicted completely crazy; when we look at them we just want to buy all of them so badly! From head to toes, all the outfits we can see in the store are just fabulous. The originality of the collection makes any girl looking like the DIVA OF THE SEASON.

What I love about the concept of the ideia of LE, is wearing designer labels clothes. Here we have Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, and many others. Stardoll made an incredible well done job on the recreations of these clothes! I must admit it, we have here tons of must have pieces. The socks, the shorts, the scarves, almost everything! I'm telling you fashionistas, you will look stunning with this brand new collection of LE.

Once again, Stardoll impressed us with the exquisite and unique, LIMITED EDITION store. Now, see below the real pics from the catwalk shows:

Louis Vuitton Fur Keychans

Yves Saint Laurent Shoes

Yves Saint Laurent Scarf

Yves Saint Laurent Gloves

Topshop Unique Animal Hats and Socks

Thakoon Boots

Alexander Wang Skirt

J. Mendel Gloves

Alexander Wang Skirt

Miu Miu Trousers

I couldn't be more excited about this. I have no words to describe the beauty and the beautiful ideia of the "party animal" nature in this collection, it represents a big strengh and personality for a women's body. Don't you think this collection was so uprising and natural?

Make a outfit with your LE clothes (from this season), take a print-screen and send it here in comments! The best dressed will appear here in the next article!

Women's Denim Shorts - Summer & Autumn 2010 Essential

2010-08-16T12:50:00.000-07:00

Cut-Offs For This Season and Next

For those of you who are lucky enough to still have their summer holiday to look forward to this month I thought I would remind you that there is definitely an essential purchase you should not forget to pack... your denim shorts! What is that you say... You haven't got a pair? Well now is time to invest sister! This year, denim has made a MASSIVE comeback in women's fashion. Already in 2010 I have featured a whole variety of denim trends, such as the double denim look, denim jackets, denim shirts, acid wash denim, denim effect jeggins/leggins, torn/destroyed denim and so many more. It has definitely been revitalised and now I'm going to showcase the latest take in the revolution.

Denim shorts have generally always been a stapple piece for our summer wardrobe here at Stardoll's Women Fashion Blog, but this year the variety has gone through the roof. There are multiple shades instead of the standard blue stone wash; with greys and blacks adding a modern take and slightly more chic look to your summer wardrobe. We can also find waisted cuts, pleated chambray/cotton effect varieties, destroyed detailing such as rips/frayed edges (building on the very popular jeans style early this year) and also a huge amount of detailing with everything from studs to gold buttons added to create unique pieces.

This Season

Obviously if you are looking for a pair of denim shorts to take on your summer holidays I recommend picking up a pair of light blue stone wash or white denim shorts. They both match nearly every item in your wardrobe, do not attract heat and make you feel uncomfortable in hot climates and they both perfectly hit that nautical or French Riviera look which is massive this Spring/Summer. Pair with your bikini underneath for a day at the beach or dress it up with a shirt or sexy top and gladiators for a night out.

Into Autumn

Just because the sun stops shining, it doesn't mean you can't still wear your shorts. You just have to pick how and when you break them out and accompany them with different surrounding pieces. I LOVE the darker shades for the cooler months such as grey, indigo and black tones. There is going to be a move back to simple minimalist style this Autumn/Winter, with classic timeless colours and not as much fuss. So you can pair these shorts with sharp white shirts and tailored blazers. Remeber to add some leggins underneath to battle the colder temperatures and you have a classic and chic city look which can work just as well at night as it does in the day.

Get The Look - Sex and The City

2010-08-14T05:54:00.000-07:00

THE SEX AND THE CITY EFFECT

When I sat down to watch the trailer for the much awaited second instalment of Sex and The City, I was blown away and if I may say s-excited! The foursome of Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nyxon breathe a whole new life into the characters Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda as they travel to exotic Dubai to spice up what have become stressful and mundane lives.

The first movie had 300 costume changes in 148 minutes - that's two costume changes every minute! So who knows what's in store for us in this amazing movie, and I'm starting to worry that Patricia Fields' brilliant styling will leave me wanting more. Now that we all know that the fashion is going to be fantastic and fabulous, so what we really want to know how to make these gorgeous outfits work for us. So here's a rundown of each character's style and some key pieces to pull off their look!

Carrie Bradshaw

If Parisian chic and romanticism had a love child, it would be Carrie's style. The fashion heroine of the twentieth-century, Carrie's style is the definition of Fashion. You can find haute couture pieces, kitschy vintage frocks and modern everyday wear stashed in her wardrobe, all just next to her famous Blahniks. Carrie's style is eclectic, quirky and very fashion forward, so inject bold colours, statement pieces and jewellery into your wardrobe. Don't forget a matching pair of stilettos to go with your outfit - Carrie doesn't wear anything else on her feet!

Samantha Jones

Samantha's high-flying job demands outfits that are appropriate yet fashionable. So she chooses body-accentuating suits in bold colours which matching heels and bags. But come night time, she dons sexy standout ensembles that show off her svelte figure and personality. If you don't want to invest in two separate day-and-night wardrobes, choose sleekpants, draped tops, and tailored wrap dresses that is both appropriate for work and that dinner time.

Charlotte York

Charlotte's wardrobe consists of pieces that are classic and reflect her feminine charm. Appreciate her style by choosing pastel pieces, blouses and skirts coordinated with timeless accessories like diamond earrings or a pearl necklace. Try choosing pieces with elegant shapes like shift dresses, pencil skirts and peacoats. Infuse delicate details like lace, ruffles, bows or embroidery to simple outfits to bring out your girlish side!

Miranda Hobbes

Miranda chooses smart classic business attire like skirt, suits and trousers for her daytime lawyerly look but always manages to look fashionable and chic with subtle touches, large and structured bags, statement blouses and practical yet stylish heels. Thought she tends toward casual and athletic wear on her days off, you can count on her to spice up her look with sexy slip dresses with geometric designs and funky accessories, such as chunky bangles and jewelled necklaces.

Women's Crochet Fashion Trend

2010-08-13T08:54:00.000-07:00

Slimline Your Knitwear

Everyone is wearing Crochet this season, especially celebrities such as Khloe Kardashian and Jameela Jamil. This is probably thanks to designers such as Diane Von Furstenberg, Chanel, Pucci, Rodarte, Nicole Ritchie (Winter Kate) and Bec and Bridge, for putting Crochet on their recent catwalks. It shouldn't come as a surprise really; Crochet was bound to make an appearence soon after lace and knit wear took over the style waves last A/W. You could say Crochet is less daring, less revealing older sister to lace but the younger, slimmer sister to knit wear - which makes it perfect for this in-between 'not sure about going out in just this vest top weather'.

Those with the less focused fashion eye could easily confuse all three as the same thing, but the truth is they are all worn in different ways. There aren't too many rules to apply when wearing crochet but the best way is to keep it simple. It's more often worn as casual day time wear, although on occasion a crochet dress worn with heels and accessorised appropriately can be worn for the evening. Some of the easier items to wear include handbags, headbands, scarves, jewellery, waistcoats and not forgetting Ugg boots (makes winter worthwile) - which are all good pieces to just throw on to complete a simple outfit.

A crochet bikini is the perfect thing to lay beside the pool in this summer and can also be worn as a bodice, teamed with a pair of shorts (denim or otherwise). When wearing crochet waistcoats it is important not to wear it with a top that has any layering, frills or other conflicting fabrics on it. Keep the rest of the outfit uncomplicated. Also try to keep it tune with the feel of crochet, for example do not wear your nice cream crochet dress with your pink Nike hi-tops. Try to stay away from crochet flat pumps - that is of course unless you are a trendy ninety-nine year old. And do not team an oversized crochet jumper with odd looking baggy trousers and your gym trainers, because well, to put it simply, you'll be mistaken for a homeless person.

So, if you found lace a bit perilous to wear and thought knit wear was too frumpy, get inspired by a look I made with my doll and let the fashionista inside you take care of the work!

Women's Fashion Trend - Leopard Print Coats

2009-12-28T03:12:00.000-08:00

Classy not Brassy!
Leopard print is always in fashion whether it’s a item of clothing or an accessory and personally I wear the odd bit of leopard print all year round, but at the moment the must have leopard print trend is in the form of a vintage coat.

The new collections in our favourite stores on the high street heavily feature the leopard print coat and it seems to be pretty popular with our favourite celebrities such as Alexa Chung, Kate Moss, Mary-Kate Olsen. See pictures above for just how big this has taken off with the fashionista’s.

Leopard Print is a love it or hate it trend an understandably you might hear the words ‘leopard print’ and automatically think ‘Bet Lynch’ but this is so not the case! After reading this I’ll having you thinking more along the lines of classy not brassy!

Leopard prints are no longer considered trashy, as proved by our celebrity fashionistas, and the print coats are a perfect and chic way to keep warm through winter. However, like most trends there’s a trick to pulling off the leopard print coat trend so listen up…

Shorter girls should go for cropped coats or thigh length versions while taller girls can go all out in a maxi length coat if they wish!

As leopard print is such a bold trend I would stay clear of wearing it at the same time as any of the other major detailing trends i.e. lace, sequins etc. Now this would be brassy!

Remember to keep it simple and wear with jeans or leggings in the day, but go wild on a night out and wear it with your favourite LBD. Try accessorising yours with a red or black belt to add instant glamour, show off your waist and give it a better shape.

Killer Party Heels

2009-12-22T08:12:00.000-08:00

So a sexy heel is the only shoe you’ll be needing over the party season… and when I say heel I mean a proper heel… The higher the better for this upcoming party season so not a kitten in sight please!
You may have seen the new Alexander McQueen crazy 10 inch heels on the catwalks recently, but I’m not actually expecting you to purchase and strut your stuff in these. I do love killer heels but these actually might kill you!
Take the lead from the heel queen herself, Victoria Beckham, and invest in a pair of killer heels that will take you through to the New Year, although by New Years Day you’ll probably want to wear slippers rather than sky scraper heels!
You can literally wear your heels with any outfit you want from dresses and leggings to playsuits and sequin knickers, just remember one thing… the sky is the limit! You can even inject some colour and brighten up a plain block dress with some vibrant heels like Beyonce and Mary Kate below.

Now I know Victoria Beckham lives in heels and even wears her Christian Louboutin’s to a Lakers game, which personally is a bit much for me, but you don’t have to just wear your heels on a night out… dress down heels with a pair of skinny jeans like Victoria, Audrina Patridge, Blake Lively and Nicole Richie… you’ll look laid back but chic.
So seen as its Christmas you have no excuse not to treat yourself and I personally recommend to go to some stores at StarPlaza sich as VOILE and RIO. The Voile Holiday boutique collection is a lush combination of studs, straps, and ridiculously high platforms and are definitely lush and the Bisou (for example) collection consists of colour, platforms and sequins for perfect party feet!

I'll show you here in this posts, some fabulous shoes which you can't miss them on this season of the year!
Happy Christmas and enjoy!

Car Park Catwalk… Vivienne Westwood

2009-11-27T10:27:00.000-08:00

Monday night saw Selfridges underground car park host the exclusive SS2010 Anglomania Collection by Vivienne Westwood. An unlikely venue for a catwalk show you might think, but one that went well with Westwood's infamous contemporary drapes & casual layering tones.

Dame Vivienne is without a doubt one of Britain’s finest originators for celebrating individuality through fashion. Her collection consisted of ruffles, stripes and tribal prints to die for, reeking style & statement femininity. She manages to effortlessly combine glamour with a touch of everyday quirkiness, teaming a burgundy ball gown with a military cap!

The show attracted the presence from press, buyers & celebrities alike. Tracey Emin, Sadie frost, Florence Welch (Florence & the Machine) Little Boots & Nicola Roberts (Girls aloud – now a regular at Westwood’s shows) all joined in the exclusive preview of the collection. See the image below for just a selection of celebrities that attended the event. If you want some A-List style in your life, then you cannot go wrong with an item from Vivienne Westwood – the fashionista’s choice!
Daisy Lowe strutted her stuff as one of the stars of the show, her touch of quirkiness?… a face full of sparkling rhinestones! The night was also graced with a performance from 13 year old Dionne Bromfield, the talented god-daughter of Amy Winehouse, who donned a printed prom dress from the SS selection.

Women Fashion Blog has definitely got a lust for the collection, as I’m sure you will too! Luckily the wait is not so long… The collection will be available in Selfridges and online at premium retailers from late December.

Women’s Party Fashion Trend – Velvet

2009-11-27T09:54:00.000-08:00

Recently I have seen a lot more velvet clothing available within the latest women’s collections. It is going to be a key trend this winter, especially in the whole party season scene. The men are getting right into this trend at the moment, with everything from Blazers, to linings and footwear featuring this luxurious fabric. The women are never left behind though, so we are seeing some beautiful dresses, jackets, footwear and accessories released just in time for your big night.

Velvet is just an amazing fabric, it exudes extravagance and class, which is just what you need for a formal event or the office party. It can be show stopping especially if you pick a statement piece like a velvet dress or play suit for an edgier twist. The fabric becomes a true focal point to your outfit, and it means that you can then tone down the rest using killer black heels, and clutch purse for a look that is pure chic, but totally sexy at the same time.
If you are not confident enough to pick out full velvet clothing, you can get some amazing mixed velvet items that are teamed with more subtle fabrics as well as clothing that just has velvet detailing or lining. A perfect way to get in on the trend without being over the top. The other great benefit to velvet is that is adds amazing texture to any outfit. It will definitely make you stand out in comparison to all the other LBD’s and with feathers, faux fur, studs and other detailing being the major trends this year, we can see that it is all about texture in order to create great outfits.

So take a look below at some of the best velvet items I have found this season.

Top 6 Women’s Winter Boots

2009-11-18T07:10:00.000-08:00

These Boots Are Made For Walking
Boots are always a hot trend for winter and the perfect way for us to make a fashion statement and survive the cold!
Lets face it if we didn’t have our boots on our feet wouldn’t survive! Boots are big! Not only do they look great but they also allow us to change our look and update our wardrobe instantly. Add a pair of winter boots and tights to pretty summer dress for an instant update… perfect! Whether you want to be stylish and sophisticated or sexy and serious or just casual and comfy, your winter boots will help you do it.
When it comes to winter boots there are literally hundreds of styles available, from stylish shoes boots to sophisticated over the knee boots, from leather to sheepskin, from laces to zips, but whatever your style you are sure to find a winter boot to suit!
If you want to look like you’ve walked straight off the catwalk wear an over the knee boot, these are all over the catwalks at the moment like Vivienne Westwood and Prada:

Apart from the over the knee boots the other trends to look out for are shoe boots, ankle boots, lace up boots and buckled, belted and studded boots (these have become a trend of there own!) And of course the beloved UGG boot, although every season a prediction is made that the UGG will be ditched, it is still here and as popular as ever before.
All styles can be worn flat or heeled (except the UGG of course!) And all styles can be worn with a dress, leggings, jeans or skirts so whatever your style the winter boot will be sure to add an edge to your look.
To start you off I have picked out my top 6 boots.
Enjoy…

As you can see, there are lots of stylish boots in RIO. RIO and Bisou are my favourite stores to buy original and fashionable shoes!
We are now so close from winter... So why don't we go buy some winter boots to be always fashionable at Stardoll? Be the first one!

Party Season Accessory – Chain Bags

2009-11-11T07:05:00.000-08:00

With the party season upon us, I continue my guide to the party season with a great accessory that will really set your outfit off… the chain strap bag. These sexy new styles have just made an amazing impact within all of our lives here at Women Fashion Blog and I think they have a real ‘edge’ compared to the standard bags on the market right now.
As we know, the glam rock look is massive right now and the chain bag will really set off any casual or nighttime outfit which makes use of true rocker pieces like leather jackets, black leggings, graphic tees and the like. However it can also be dressed up beautifully this party season when matched with a great LBD or party dress and killer heels.
There are loads of styles available which are right on trend from sleek and chic, to sequined or leather… but whichever style you pick you can be sure to finish off your party outfit in style. Many celebrities have been seen rocking the look recently and it is fast becoming THE party season accessory of the year. So if you want something different and a way to stand out whilst still looking great, look no further.

Trend Collection – Bold Shoulder

2009-11-08T09:48:00.000-08:00

With the 80’s trend being absolutely massive right now in women’s fashion, the bold shoulder has made a dramatic return on the catwalk previews and in the world of celebrities. When I say bold shoulder, I mean exaggerated definition of the shoulder area like they had back in the day with shoulder pads. Now no-one is saying we should all be reaching for the foam right now, as this season’s hottest trend is made simple with the beautiful collection of shoulder detailed pieces available for us all to buy.
Today’s bold shoulder trend concentrates on bringing it bang up to date – and in some cases going futuristic with it. The shoulders on the latest collections are structured and are all about creating drama with delicate detailing and cuts. As you can see above, this trend has taken off massively with everyone from Diane Kruger to Kim Kardashian to Miley Cyrus rocking the trend in their own individual way.

The key piece in this party season would be the structured shoulders dress. If you are looking for a new LBD then you would not go wrong getting your hands on one of these, as it will be bang on trend whilst making a massive statement. It can’t fail to have people looking at you and admiring your style. Don’t think it ends there though, as there are blazers, tunics and tops which all make use of this trend and can be worked into your wardrobe easily.

Hot Colour Combo – Black and Gold

2009-11-04T10:32:00.000-08:00

A new colour combination is really making waves in women’s fashion at this moment, and today I'm going to show you some of the key items that you can use to nail this latest trend. Black and Gold has always been a great colour contrast that I have used each and every season for parties, nights out and formal affairs. However with metallics being this season’s must-have and gold embellishment being top of the list, I have seen many more pieces that mix the 2 colours together so it takes the all the hard work away from you!

From sequins to studs, this combination has been seen on celebrities and catwalks alike this season (see main picture). I can see why it has taken off so much because LBD’s are the key piece for party seasons and black in itself is a slimming colour which always has you looking your very sexiest. Match black with gold and you have the most amazing colour contrast possible in order to stand out from the crowd. Gold also adds a little bit of glitz and glamour to any outfit and is completely timeless, so you know you can pull out the same items next season/year as well.

To really ram home that this is the biggest party season colour combination take a look at EVEN MORE celebrities that have been spotted in this combination recently:

Sparkle This Party Season!

2009-11-03T10:08:00.000-08:00

All I want for Christmas is….. Sparkle!
Glossy Hair? Check.
Flawless make up? Check.
Head turning party outfit? Check.

Here at Women Fashion Blog I have been working hard to deliver your Christmas wardrobe in time for the party season.
Sequins made an early appearance this year and have been around since summer but as Christmas is getting closer be prepared to see a whole lot more. The trend for this party season has an 80s vibe with a festive sprinkling of sequins, glossy satins, luxurious lace, high-sheen silks and sexy velvets. Not all together though… Obviously!
The key to wearing this trend is to keep everything to a minimum, so if you’re wearing head to toe sequins, avoid detailed accessories and fancy silhouettes, as they will add an over-the-top drama to your outfit. The point of wearing these glamorous fabrics like satin, silk and velvet is to look sophisticated, chic and sexy – not trashy.

If you don’t have the budget to splash out on a new party piece try adding a wow clutch for instant glamour and sophistication or statement accessories to your LBD. Chunky statement necklaces and embellished bid collars add just the right amount of sparkle and Christmas cheer. Note no earrings needed!
The party season trends can be seen at Balmain, Gucci and Christopher Kane so when you hit the stores looking for that perfect party outfit take inspiration from the designer gods and remember Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without glitter.

Fur & Feathers Fashion Trend

2009-10-30T08:32:00.000-07:00

Fur & Feathers: Where the Wild Things Are!

OK so the winter is on its way and its cold and we all know when it’s cold we don’t feel like showing off our little black dresses but that doesn’t mean we can’t still be stylish and trendy!
This winter fur is on track again and it is more popular than ever before. Not only does fur look chic and fashionable, it is also warm! Great News!
Add fur or feathers to any outfit and make a Queen out of any woman. However, you don’t need to dress head to toe in them to be down with the trend!

If you don’t feel like wearing a completely fur coat you could think of buying a coat with a fur collar or adding a fur accessory to an outfit to finish it off. You’ll be able to find all sorts of accessories trimmed with fur this season from hats and gloves to boots and bags.
And what about feathers? Wearing too much can run the risk of making us look like a swan, so feather details are best for this one. Think feather edges on dresses and skirts to create an elegant look. A feathered accessory or jewellery is a fantastic way to invest in this trend.You don’t have to spend a fortune on genuine fur and feathers but remember that nothing looks worse than a cheaply made fur garment (whether genuine or faux), so invest accordingly and go ahead and have fun with the rest of the flock!

Coming Soon: Get great looks with fur and feather!

Today I thought I would put together a collection of the best cardigans for the new season from around the Internet. As all of us girl’s know, the cardigan and knitwear in general is crucial for the new cold seasons for us to look great and also keep warm! Cardigans are amazingly versatile and provide great layering options in any situation each Autumn/Winter. With the weather officially sucking right now, there has never been a better time to get your hands on a great new cardigan.

I have seen so many great varieties available for the new season with everything from slouchy, belted, boyfriend, over sized and drape cardigans all coming in so many cuts, styles and colours. It has never been a better time for women’s knitwear and here at Women Fashion Blog I am loving the over sized boyfriend cardigans a LOT as well as the big thick chunky versions which are nearly an outfit in itself. Team with some leggings and belt the cardigan across the middle to give you a super sexy and effortless look that emphasises all the right places.

To style the cardigan in other ways you need to think about the look you are going for. It is such a versatile piece of clothing and really is a fashion essential for any woman. The cardigan can act in place of a jacket or coat, if you oversize it slightly and really go to town on the layering beneath it. For a more casual look, wear it over a graphic t-shirt or vest and rock the skinny jeans underneath. You could even bring some chic to the basic cardigan by wearing it over a shirt/blouse with some dark trousers or a pencil skirt. Power dressing is really in right now and the pencil skirt mixed with a beautiful piece of knitwear will really hit this look on the head without being to “stuffy”.

So check out some of the greatest new cardigans I have found from the high street and premium designers below.

New Season Women's Cardigans

Hot Fashion Colous Combination - Blue and Black

2009-10-12T09:48:00.000-07:00

This year’s hottest colour combination is red and black – as I featured last week about Vera Wang dress. Another has burst onto the scene recently which I absolutely love, again pairing black with a bold statement colour… Blue. This was actually a massive trend through this year’s Spring/Summer seasons and it has stayed strong throughout all the early Autumn/Winter releases.

Many celebrities have been seen rocking the trend with Lauren Conrad leading the way in an amazing colour blocking panel dress mixing with a dark edgy leather jacket. Perfectly executed and right on trend, this combination of colours is such a hit – and the leather jacket is this season’s must have item. I love how she adds a really bold splash of colour and then tones down the rest of the outfit in black to make it really stand out and become a focal point. So mix a bright blue with black jacket and accessories to really stand out from the crowd.

Be brave when picking your shades of blue and don’t be afraid to go really bold as you can control it with good use of black pieces surrounding it. I particularly like Cobalt blue and think it looks really refreshing this season.

So take a look at some of the great new pieces that you can mix with standard black pieces or those that combine the colours to do all the work for you!

Steal Her Style - Kylie Minogue

2009-10-09T15:10:00.000-07:00

With her sister Dannii very much in the public eye at the moment due to X-Factor – and looking amazing I must say – I thought I would show some love to the older sister who hasn’t been around so much recently. Kylie is definitely one of our favourite style icons and celebrities as a whole, especially with how she dealt with cancer (and beat it!) and how classy she was throughout her whole break up with Olivier Martin a few years back.

She is no slouch in the fashion stakes either as you can see from the images above. Today I have 2 outfits which are inspired by Lipsy’s new collections and they both are totally different but totally amazing! The first is a glam night time look which is so simple but really effective. The dress totally makes this look work on it’s own as it is such a statement. Bold colours and a great mix in palette really takes this colour blocking to a new level. I also LOVE the asymmetric detailing which is a really big trend right now and will continue right the way through Autumn/Winter.

Of course you can dress this outfit up with the right accessories… I would keep the shoes and clutch purse really simple with black statement items and then add some great sparkling jewellery in order to give off that “star” vibe.
The second outfit is a really good example of power dressing mixed with the rock glam trend. A great pencil skirt mixed with a simple top looks very chic but also very formal/work like. I brighten this whole look up with a bright scarf and add an “edge” with a great leather jacket. Add the large bag in order to give the outfit more of a relaxed vibe and pair with simple black sandals.

Get Kylie Minogue style in StarPlaza:

You can be always trendy and fashionable like Kylie Minogue. In StarPlaza, you have a full collection of beautiful bags in baby phat, you have an unique collection of dresses and shoes in Bisou and very original scarfs in Miss Sixty!

Women's Fashion Trend - Checks and Plaid

2009-10-08T08:49:00.000-07:00

I mentioned a few weeks ago that check shirts are going to be a BIG deal this Autumn/Winter and now it seems with each new collection that comes out I'm seeing more and more check and plaid patterns within all clothing pieces. I have seen checked dresses, skirts, tees and jackets over the last few weeks and can now confirm it has turned into a full blown trend!

I absolutely LOVE the whole cowboy check theme here at Women Fashion Blog and know that the boys are going through the exact same trend as well this Autumn/Winter. Matching check shirts anyone?! I am particularly in love with the check skirts available and think they would look amazing with a simple vest top and cowboy boots during the day. You could even dress them up with statement heels and a sexy top for a killer night time look – if you have got it, then flaunt it!

So check out the latest collections below which feature bags, dresses, skirts and jackets all in this season’s hottest pattern!

Runway Look - Dynasty Trend

2009-10-06T13:15:00.000-07:00

I have just seen some amazing new items in recent collections that have taken their styling straight off the Autumn/Winter catwalk previews earlier this year. Dynasty is a new trend that you need to get on board with this season, and it is a true throwback to the whole 1980’s Dynasty look. So think Joan Collins in her prime and work those shoulder pads, hard edges, sequins and the sky high heels! A totally glamorous style which is so eye catching to look at.

This look comes right off the runways of Roksanda Ilincic, Dolce & Gabbana, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga and Stella McCartney. The main trend setter however was Balmain – who got in there early and really threw everything into the trend. With some amazing blue sequin hard frame dresses, asymmetric sharp shoulders and true 80’s glamour, the whole show was critically acclaimed. Check the catwalk photos above for some of Balmain’s greatest creations.

I LOVE this look here at Women Fashion Blog because it is a truly retro trend without looking dated. Bringing the items bang up to date with asymmetric shapes, clean lines and beautiful detailing means you will stand out in the crowd whilst still looking hot and fashion forward. Remember to be bold and pick bright prints to really make a statement.

Check out some of the best items we have seen this year below.

Women's Fashion Essential - The Cross Body Bag

2009-09-30T07:22:00.000-07:00

The cross body bag has been building up steam all year within women’s fashion circles and now it is THE MUST HAVE bag for the Autumn/Winter season. It has become the fashion elite’s first choice accessory and for good reason – every woman knows that the right purse or bag can make and break an outfit subtly. However, on a long day’s shopping trip or those times when it seems like you are non-stop, it becomes an effort to carry even the smallest bag unless you are built like Madonna – and no-one wants those body builder arms/shoulders do they?!

This cross body style has always been present with the whole Bohemian trend, where fashionista’s used to rock the large over the shoulder bags to go with their floaty dresses and headbands. This year though it is all about the glamour and chic with compact small cross body bags which are perfect for throwing on and then not causing you pain for the rest of the day! They are so comfy in fact that I like to think of them more as part of your outfit that you WEAR rather than just an accessory.

So we all need to invest in one of these great little accessories this year. We recommend getting a great leather option in a smaller size, because it will look amazing and serve you well all Autumn/Winter without giving you the feeling that your shoulder is about to drop off! How about matching a beautiful red dress with great black statement heels, belt and black cross body bag for this year’s hottest colour combination.

Get The Loook - Leighton Meester

2009-09-25T11:34:00.000-07:00

Leighton Meester has become one of my favourite characters on TV playing the scheming Blair Waldorf and now she has become one of me favourite fashionista’s in the young Hollywood circle. Recently at the Teen Choice awards she wore the outfit above which I just fell in love with. When I went looking around recently I saw a great selection of nautical dresses which are right on trend and would work just as well in summer as they would through Autumn and Winter.

Black and reds combined are going to be huge in the new season, so Leighton pulls it off perfectly by matching a bold striped dress with black statement clutch and beautiful red heels. This whole outfit just coordinates so well and it is a really sophisticated but totally sexy look for a night out. I think that pairing patent accessories with this outfit would add a bit extra, and if it is cold you could always add the on trend blazer over the top.

Get Leighton Meester clothes - COMING SOON

Women's Military Clothing Trend

2009-09-24T11:20:00.000-07:00

The women's military Fashion Trend is going to be massive once again this Autumn/Winter so it's time I give your Military preview. They key to the whole look is the military jacket and this is going to be your MAJOR winter fashion statement. So think big shiny metal buttons and shoulder epaulettes to really frame your body shape and plant you firmly within the trend. I would stick to the dark monotone colours like black, navy grey and even red for some of that old Napoleon regiment feel.

The catwalks were full of military items this year with Alexander McQueen, Paul Smith, YMC, Mentor and Burberry all featuring the trend prominently during their previews. Add a bit of runway glamour to your military look by teaming up a military jacket with jeans or a jersey dresses and knee high boots. Looks great as an "edgier" look, and the whole trend gives off a really powerfull attitude and vibe. The Fashion A-List has really got on board with this with everyone Kate Moss to Alexa Chung to Sienna Miller rocking this hot trend (see above).

What I love about military is that you do not need to go over board... The military jacket is such a statement piece that you can mix and match trends like Grecian and Military or Rock Glam and Military together. In the picture above Mischa rocks a beautiful Grecian dress with a statement military jacket to create a look which is right on trend and has a really powerful presence. A great example how to make this work.

Alexander Wand Body Con - Celeb Fav

2009-09-23T13:37:00.000-07:00

I have seen this gorgeous Alexandar Wang dress on every celebrity recently, proving that it is one of the sophisticated hits of the Fashion World. As we said last week, Body Cons are totally hot right now and look amazing in the summer weather we have been having recently. What sets this body con apart from the rest is that it incorporates colour blocking, which is again right on trend, and the colours just mix so well. The bright blues really sit well against the black, and because it is slimming, means you can pull off the clingy style.

All the socialites have been seen in it, from Sophia Bush to Linsay Lohan to Diane Kruger. It’s perfect for a hot summers day, but can be dressed up easily for wearing well into the night. Wear it with some leggings at night and a nice clutch or leather bag, and in the day it wears itself with some gladiator sandals for very little effort!

Lipsy Body Con

Women's Fashion Trend - Treggins!

2009-09-22T11:15:00.000-07:00

Yes, I have a new trend for Autumn which will only gather momentum as the weather gets colder. Treggings are named as such because they are basically a cross between traditional leggings and trousers! Sounds weird!? Well, they are right on trend and look great when dressed up correctly. What makes them a cross is the fact that the trousers are super skinny and normally have an elasticated waist like traditional leggings – Although the fit is cut slightly more along the natural leg line as well instead of just clinging to every part of your body.

These treggings are great because they are bang on the skinny fit trend but are also so warm and comfortable for the new season. I have showcased below a collection of brand new release Treggings as well as a great way to dress up a plain black pair perfectly. As you can see in the main image, these are a massive hit with the Hollywood Starlets and L.A. crowd.

I have featured some great black versions which are a great place to start for those that are less confident in their own body. Plus it is a timeless colour that looks great with anything you throw on with it. Remember that Black IS the new Black this year. I have also included some versions with sequins, zips and even a gold colourway – so get a pair today!

How to Rock the Treggins

I recommend wearing treggings with an oversized top and leg lengthening heels. The nude heels below are perfect for adding length to your look, and especially great for shorter leg lengths. The other items below will make a really simple statement outfit that can’t help to get you noticed. Right on the power dressing trend too.

New Fashion Trend - Futuristic Clothing

2009-09-22T10:29:00.000-07:00

Well it seems that the second big trend to emerge for the Autumn/Winter season is back from the future… yes that’s right, this season we will all be rocking the high shine and metallic colours, but with more 80’s inspired cuts and fits. So think of exaggerated shoulder details, with great shape and structure to all your outfits. Just because I'm throwing back to the 80’s doesn’t mean this look has not be brought into the present with sequin detailing, studs, exposed zips and of course the all important metallics which are going to be massive. A truly fashion forward take on an original classic trend.

This future trend was massive on all the cat walk previews this year so I knew it was going to be hot, and couldn’t wait to get our hands on the items that sparkle! With fashionista’s like Kate Moss, Taylor Momsen and the totally crazy Lady Gaga getting on board early, it is time to pick up the essential pieces early. My favourites are the brilliant new range of silver and blue metallic shine dresses which will totally catch any one’s eye – dress them up with some simple black statement heels and clutch to really pull off a chic night time look.

Silver accessories are also a great way of giving a subtle nod to the trend if you do not want to go all out sequins. Metallic purses can also be had so do not neglect your accessories this Autumn/Winter, they can really enhance a look and turn a good outfit into a GREAT one.
Check out our picks below from the latest future trend items available.

Steal Her Style - Mary-Kate Olsen

2009-09-21T11:26:00.000-07:00

This week, I have a new steal her style for you: Mary-Kate Olsen. In case you didn't know, she is fashionable one which doesn't normally look as pale as a vampire! She is know for a very unique and outlandish sense of style, which to be honest doesn't always hit the mark - but when she pulls it off and doesn't try too hard she looks super super cute! As the pictures above will testify.

I have found 2 of her best recent outfits that are completely on trend and look perfect for Special Occasions in Autumn/Winter. In the photos above, she rocks the playsuit and body con dress perfectly on 2 separate occasions. These are both THE massive hits of the summer along with the clutch purse and gladiators. Hot pink and black together is such a perfect combination, and really contrast well in both outfits. I LOVE it!

Get Mary-Kate Olsen's Look

Look 1 - The Body Con

All you need for this is a beautiful Body Con dress, a nice leather biker jacket and killer clutch. Simplicity, but the colours work so well together!

Look 2 - The PlaySuit

Again, keep it simple. Black playsuit with a bright belt and some "bling" will really set this outfit off.

Women's Investment Coat - What to Look For

2009-09-20T12:26:00.000-07:00

Now that I'm rapidly moving into the new season, it is the perfect time to invest in a beautiful new coat. This is one of my favourite times of the year, because there is nothing more satisfying than buying yourself a great new coat that will form the basis of all your outfits for the whole season. It can transform a look in an instant and make an outfit go from good to great.

There are many different varieties on the market at the moment, and I think all the designers have released some of their best pieces to date. Today I'm going to feature the premium high fashion pieces from designers like: YMC, Alexander McQueen, Pringle, Acne, See by Chloe, Farhi and Paul Smith. It is called an investment coat for a reason – namely you pay for the quality that you get. If you are willing to splash out, you can pick up a coat that is timeless and has the quality construction to last through multiple years and seasons. These will never go out of style, and seem to transcend trends. If you are looking for a jacket that will last you years, then stick with the blacks and greys which are colours that NEVER go out of style. Each time you break it out of your wardrobe, it will feel like brand new, and you just KNOW it will work with whatever you feel like wearing that day.

Here are some top tips to look out for when shopping for an investment coat:

When buying an expensive coat in StarPlaza, always go for classic styles like military or button up camel designs, that way you’ll be able to wear it season after season.
A good lining on a coat is as important as the outer fabric, it will add extra shielding from the cold and a flash of bright colour on a winter day always cheers you up.
Update an old coat or trench by adding a belt around the waist or changing the buttons to give it a new lease of life.
Grey, black, navy and camel are perennial winter shades. Bold colours are brave but may look out of date even just one season on so bear this in mind if a new coat isn’t at the top of your annual wish list.
Only go for cocoon styles if you have the height, belted and tailored styles are generally much more flattering.
Once winter draws to a close, dry clean your coat and store it away in a hanging bag, you’ll be pleased when the weather takes a turn for the worst the following year that you’re already prepared.

Women's Investement Coats

Steal Her Style: Elle MacPherson

2009-09-20T04:07:00.000-07:00

Elle MacPherson is one of my biggest role models. We all want to steal her style!

This post I made is inspired by Elle MacPherson as you can see below:

Can anyone in the world believe that Elle Macpherson is 46 years old?!?!? She always looks AMAZING and she has been that way since she was know as “the body” back in the 90’s. She has graced the cover of the illustrious Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition a ridiculous 5 times, and is worth an estimated $60 million! Definitely a style icon and someone all women should look up to in terms of business savvy as well.

Today I'm going to take some of this amazing style and steal it for ourselves. Elle can afford all the designer clothes she could ever want, but we love how she stays down to earth and rocks a mix of high street and designer to create a fab look. In the main image above you can see a great look Elle rocked whilst in London and it is perfect for the rest of this season and right into Autumn/Winter.

The plaid or checked shirt should again be massive within women’s fashion this Autumn/Winter, and I have seen some great new releases already. The way Elle wears it open suggests a casual look, but the shirt itself really adds some sharpness to the overall feel. Add some true glam with nice fitted skinny jeans and the statement black over the shoulder bag. Quality cowboy boots are a must as it keeps the whole Western vibe going and also adds some glamour. Turn your jeans up slightly to really show off these gorgeous boots below! Finish with the graphic tee layered underneath the shirt and a nice oversized pair of sunglasses to give you that model/actress aura.

I'm still working on Elle MacPherson's stylish outfits in Stardoll, so you can be the next Glam Rock Superstar before your friends!

Coming Soon.

Warrior Godess Look-A-Like

2009-09-19T14:16:00.000-07:00

Today I thought I would put together a few items that are great for Autumn/Winter and are still PERFECT for hot days now in the Europe and America or when you go away to sunny paradises. The Warrior Goddess is exactly as it sounds – a totally FIERCE look put together from all the latest major fashion trends.
When you think of a warrior then Gladiator sandals must jump out at you. This is what makes the outfit so fierce – sandals, chains and chunky accessories add some weight to the look, whilst your attitude should be about wearing the outfit with confidence KNOWING you look great. The Goddess side comes from picking items that are floaty, feminine and make use of all the latest pleat, ruffles and Grecian trends. This gives your figure that beautiful womanly shape, but your attitude shows that although you are gorgeous… you know it and can’t be messed with!

Check the photo out above for just how killer this look is, and then dive into the main post for all the picks to really get this look down!

I love this style. It's so unique! And you can be the next Fashion Godess on Stardoll! I've just made the complete tour on StarPlaza to have the 7 Warrior Godess' MUST-HAVES!

White Godess Dress, RIO - 8$

Autumn/Winter Essential - Women's Leather Jacket

2009-09-19T13:46:00.000-07:00

The leather jacket is back and even bigger and better than ever this year within women’s fashion. With the major trends for the coming season being biker and rock glam, there has never been a better time to invest in a great looking leather jacket for your wardrobe. Today I am going to show you some of the best available from the new collections so you can get in early and start rocking the new trends before all of your friends!

The leather jacket really adds an edge to any fashion look. You can throw it on over the top of a casual or formal outfit and COMPLETELY change the whole look and vibe of it. Pair with some skinny jeans, some retro hi-tops and a graphic tee and you will create an eye-catching day look or rock chick look for a night out. Glam it up by pairing with a beautiful floaty top, skinny jeans, killer statement heels and clutch in order to really dress it up and add some “bad ass” attitude to a gorgeous night time/going out look.

All the celebrities are getting on board already, and I have seen pictures of Cheryl Cole, Kate Moss, Rihanna and Taylor Momsen rocking some great leather pieces already – so you would be in good company! It is worth investing in a leather jacket and spending a bit of money on one, because good quality leather is something you can instantly tell just by looking at it. Plus leather is a material that actually looks BETTER with age and becomes even more soft, so you will get years worth of use out of a good quality one.
So why not splash out today on one of these great leather jackets below… You deserve it!

Women's Leather Jackets

Where can I find these Jackets on StarPlaza?

Women's Checked/Plaid Shirts

2009-09-18T11:15:00.000-07:00

The Checked/Plaid Shirts have become the Stylist Usual and Comfortable shirts for the 1st time ever in the World of Fashion. Everyone can use it and you can find some very sophisticated shirts at all kind of stores! Even in BISOU, or in Pretty in Pink.

Today we're going to be concentrating on one of my favourite looks for this Autumn/Winter. The check or plaid shirt has been around a lot recently and I have seen some amazing examples within the recent collections. Many celebrities have been spotted in them, from Elle McPherson, to Jessica Biel and Rihanna. It seems to be THE big casual outfit for the coming season, and we think it comes across as an effortless style.
You can dress up the shirt in so many ways. My favourites would be to go down the traditional route with sexy skinny jeans, cowboy boots and graphic tee layered underneath. This would really play on the Western trend and give a great contrast of styles between top and bottom half. The other way would be to oversize your shirt to play onthe “boyfriend” vibe, and wear it as a makeshift dress with leggings and belt gathering the shirt together in all the right places. Either way, these are 2 totally different looks, but both perfect for the Autumn/Winter season.
Check out some of the best check and plaid shirts I have found below…

Just like I said before, you can find these kind of shirts in StarPlaza. The only store where these shirts are avaiable is BISOU. Check this out!

Yup, here they are! Aren't they so cute? I love these shirts and if you're American go to Abercrombie & Fitch. There are very sophisticated Plaid and Checked shirts which you can use them in day/night!

Coco Before Chanel Inspired Clothing

2009-09-18T10:12:00.000-07:00

Hello Everyone! It's me again. I decided to make a post about Coco Before Chanel Film because Stardoll posted one in the Magazine. But I wanted to show you the Clothes which Audrey Tautou worn at the film.

With the new Coco Before Chanel film released I thought I should put together a selection of Coco Chanel inspired items from around the Internet. I can’t wait to watch the film that tells the story of Coco Chanel’s rise to become one of the most iconic and respected women’s designers in history. The film settings look amazing and the items worn in the film are just beautiful from all the promotional shots we have seen.
Traditional, elegant and exuding grace – we should all look to take some inspiration from this wonderful woman and style icon. Of course, it helps that the beautiful Audrey Tautou is playing Coco, because she just has an amazing look whatever she throws on. This trend capitalises on the Parisian theme, with items such as bows, stripes and nautical inspired items featured on the Chanel 09 cat walks.
Monochrome colours are also MASSIVE for this look, and whites and black will keep you looking tres chic throughout the day, night or at work. Power dressing is really in right now, and with Coco being such an inspirational and powerful woman, this couldn’t be any more apt. To really pull off the power dressing look, wear slim trousers with a great shirt. Again monochrome options with contrasting collars would work really well in these outfits.

I have seen multiple high profile celebrities wearing and totally rocking one of Autumn/Winter’s biggest trends over the last couple of weeks – SEQUINS! Yes, they started off very strong throughout the Spring/Summer season’s this year, and they seem to be gathering even more steam now. Embellishment has been strong all year and I have done stories on bejewelled, lace and stud detailing already.
Sequins is the latest and great form of embellishment for your outfits in the coming season. They are eye-catching, feminine and totally sexy – they will add glamour to any day or night outfit. Whether you are looking for all over sequins or just a hint of detailing within your clothing, you will find all styles available at the moment.
