Leather has been a hot trend this season, and as we move into the winter months this look is set to get hotter.
Instead of the simple black biker jackets and shift skirts that have made their way into Spring/Summer wardrobes, this look will evolve into a glossy black vixen look for the Autumn/Winter season – think sleek dresses, knee and thigh high boots, that also give a huge nod to the gothic look.
Take inspiration from the looks shown on the Gucci, Fendi and Loewe AW 2012 catwalks or give a nod to this season’s leather looks, which have been channelled by a range of celebrities such as Alexa Chung and Emma Watson.
See the gallery below for the star style.

Purple has become a hot colour to be seen in this season.
Prada made it a key hue on its Spring/Summer 2012 catwalk, while Marc Jacobs and Burberry also paid homage to this colour in their collections too.
And celebrities have been quick to adopt this colour for their red carpet and everyday looks.
Lady Gaga opted for a dark purple mini dress for a trip to the Far East, while Emma Watson incorporated this colour into a marble effect dress at the MTV Music Awards.
Katy Perry went for lilac for her red carpet dress at the Billboard awards, while Beyonce brightened up her black dress with a touch of purple fringing.
See the gallery below for some celebrity colour inspiration.

Kate Middleton dazzled in a red dress, complete with a pleated skirt and hat, when she stepped on board the Royal Barge for the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant this weekend.
However, she’s not the only A-lister turning to this hue in a bid to make an impact. That’s right ladies it seems the LBD is this year being replaced by the red frock with a range of celebrities and designers showing off this colour.
Prada and Marc Jacobs were two of the designers which showed off red frocks, while Emma Stone, Rihanna, Taylor Swift and Kylie Minogue are just a few of the celebrities showcasing this look.
See the gallery below for some inspiration.

The Queen’s Jubilee is almost here and we’re already looking forward to the long Bank Holiday weekend.
However, with an event as big as this there’s always the dilemma of what to wear.
Thankfully we’re here to help and so is the highstreet, offering a range of Jubilee inspired pieces that will suit any occasion you are planning to attend.
Go all patriotic with a Union Jack tee teamed with jeans for a casual look that’s perfect for a daytime garden party or be daring for an evening BBQ with a cheeky pair of printed hotpants.
If you’re a subtle kind of girl then accessorise a plain outfit with a Union Jack scarf, bag or limited edition jewellery, which will not only give a nod to the event but is also a great keepsake.
Or if flags aren’t your thing then a bold coloured dress in red, blue or white will also ensure you make a Jubilee stand.
However, one word word of advice; wrapping yourself in a Union Jack flag is not a look you want to go for, no matter how much the Pimms has been flowing.
See the gallery below for some of our best Jubilee picks.

You may not feel it, but spring is most definitely on its way, at least on the highstreet anyway. This season there’s a huge range of styles to choose from and we can’t wait until the frost thaws and rain goes, so we can begin to channel these looks.
The first trend we can’t wait to get into is the 20s flapper look, which has been given a summer make over. Gone are the feathers seen in AW 2011 and in come the sequins, drop waisted dresses and light fabrics, which really emulate this era.
If you’re a girly girl then the cute and sweet Sugar Doll look is also a must-have trend. Florals and girly colours fashioned into lace and simple cut frocks make up this style for the SS 2012 and was hot on the Louis Vuitton catwalk, while pastels also compliment this trend.
Those who like to show their casual side will also love the glam sports trend. Shown by Victoria Beckham, amongst others, this smart take on the sporty look – think sleek trackies, metallic vests and cute trainers – is great for those chilling out days.
See the gallery below for our top five trends.
