Sep 25, 2010 AW10, dresses, leather dresses, m&s, oasis, Topshop, Very
An absolute must for AW10, is the leather dress! A garment normally associated with rock chicks and and sexy celebrities, us mere mortals can now have our moment channeling the dominatrix within…
What’s fortunate, is that our glorious high street stores have not only created affordable leather dresses, but designs that are simple and sophisticated – making the trend much more approachable for the ‘every-woman’.
Top marks go to Oasis, who have created a duel-trend frock. The Pencil Leather Dressis pale camel, which is the key shade to wear AW10! Made from soft leather, it features a panel structure, which is incredibly flattering. It’s a true statement dress.
So if you’re looking to invest in a leather dress this season, have a gander at our ‘best-of-the-rest’…
The M&S Limited Collection Leather Panelled Dress is quite simply, fierce. It also looks like it would cost hundreds more than it’s £149 price tag! The Topshop Leather Tunic Dress offers loose tailoring and tan that’s bang on-trend, whilst the Very Leather Shift Dress is the perfect frock to wear from the office to after work drinks!

A/W Trend 2009 – Over-the-knee Boots – Very
Sep 1, 2009 A/W 09, boots, fashion, Very
Already a hugely popular trend – the demand for over-the-knee boots (or OTK’s as the fashion mags are calling them) is so high, Topshop have already sold out of their suede version!
Fear not, for I have found a fabulous pair, similar to the Topshop boots and Karen Millen’s uber sexy pair.
The Voodoo Suede over-the-knee boots from Very have a concealed platform offering some comfort and stability to one hot pair of heels! These sassy shoes are far too fierce for any thigh slapping, so avoid Dick Wittington remarks by teaming with a flirty dress and winter coat.
Flat over-the-knee boots suit leggy ladies, whilst the heel and folded material of some designs are a great way to flatter thighs – but on the whole, this is a trend for one and all!
Available from Very now!
