Designer Christmas party hair inspiration: The updo

By Andrea Petrou on December 8th, 2011

Updos are always a hot look around the AW season, especially in December when the Christmas and New Year’s eve parties are in full swing.

This season this traditional look has been revamped and interpreted into a modern look, which gives a nod to the ballet trend as well as the 80s.

Simple, yet intricate neat buns  were hot on the YSL and Donna Karen catwalks, whilst low ponytails made an appearance at Gucci. 80s sleek chic was also a trend showcased at Fendi and Missoni.

With so many styles to choose from this season, we guarantee you’ll look hot at that party.

See the gallery below for designer hair inspiration.

AW Trend alert: Take on the trench coat

By Andrea Petrou on September 3rd, 2010

Trench coats have been hanging out silently throughout the SS2010, providing us with a welcome waterproof option during the rainy months. However, as the AW2010 season approaches they’ve come from the back of the store into the front rails in a range of colours ready to provide more shelter for the upcoming months.
The best thing about this trend is that it’s classic. It comes in every year and is always a favourite on catwalks, notably at Burberry. However, as other trends come into the spotlight, this look is altered to fit in. Therefore this year the classic trench has been given a range of different facelifts, from military to puff ball to on-trend colours such as camel.
Here’s our top five for the upcoming season.

A/W trend alert: Biker jackets

By Andrea Petrou on August 31st, 2010

With the days turning and the wind picking up, plus tomorrow officially becoming autumn, it’s time to start packing away those bikinis, shorts and dresses and getting into the autumn fashion.

There’s a great deal to be excited about this season. The 80s trend is sticking around, puff sleeves will be making a comeback (as demonstrated by Paul Costelloe) and of course there’s the camel colours we can look forward to.

However, one trend that we’re really pleased is here to stay from the summer is the leather biker jacket. Worn by celebs such as Rihanna and Taylor Momsen, this jacket will form a staple part of any girls wardrobe for the first few months and thanks to Burberry’s fur and aviation trend, into the winter too.

We’ve picked out our favourite five.
