Winter fashion with Rose Horsfield from Pookie

As winter approaches why not embrace the season by finding those key glam pieces to keep you looking fabulous throughout the dark nights.


Top 10 key fashion buys for Winter

1. Leather - Skinny leather trousers, leather skirts and dresses or a butter soft leather jacket. It’s a key material and is showcased everywhere on the catwalks. Leather bags are structured and ladylike in traditional styles with simple fastening and in muted tones.

2. Trousers- It is the return of the trouser this winter with chino and jodhpur inspired styles, skinny military pants, panel and tapered trousers and 1970’s boot cut high waisted styles, with clean design and relaxed tailoring.

3. Jackets – A staple for every wardrobe this winter. Hot styles include the military influenced aviator and English heritage inspired country tweed or quilted jacket.

4. Chunky Knit Relaxed and slouchy, simple or Fair Isle inspired multi colour patterns .These textured cardigans and cable knits come in mid length and long line styles worn belted.

5. The skirt- Hem lines are down on skirts. Longer skirts midi to floor sweeping, pleated in 1950’s and 1970’s retro inspired styles.

6. Fur and Lace– These textured fabrics feature widely this winter. The lace look encompasses romantic, but not too girly vintage styles and sensual but not too suggestive glam Goth styles. Fur, featured widely on the runways this winter, coats and gillets or fur trim edging detail is integrated onto garments and accessories.

7. Animal print Bring out your wild side and unleash your animal magnetism in full on print or with subtle touches of print to liven up any outfit.

8. Camel Coat Camel the status shade of the season embraces the minimal trend. Coats are available in floor length to short and in differing shades of camel; it is a classic staple in your winter wardrobe.

9. Embellishment -Sequined dress’s and jackets, studded and beaded shoulders on jackets and knitwear, will make you sparkle all through those long winter nights.

10. Prom Queen Dress Think high school 1950’s vs. SJP, sex and the city. There are a range of cute or sophisticated styles out there to choose from, to be the belle of the ball.
