New York Fashion Week...

Following the trends showcased at events like New York Fashion Week can often be disheartening, especially when you're in Australia and celebrating the turn of seasons at the opposite time as the cities which dictate what we wear. 

However, thanks to a feature of the Internet that I have heavily embraced- Online Shopping, it is now possible to get one step ahead of the pack and begin collecting key pieces for the upcoming season.

From what I could see on the catwalks this month, your wardrobe must or lust haves include:
  • Fur. Fur scarves, jackets, hats or gloves, however your piece of faux comes, it'll be a winner to any look. 
  • Leather. Leather trousers, jackets and skirts were a predominant feature of this season's looks and it's not just black that's being embraced, but colour leathers such as maroon and red.
  • Metallics. Gold more so than silver.
  • Belts. Wide and thin, belts of all shapes and sizes were popular, with gold belts accompanying various looks.
  • Suits. Pant suits were a big feature in the collections of designers such as Victoria Beckham and Rachel Zoe.
And in a perfect world, my closet would include a little...
