Going back to a stylish work environment with these Ten sexy basics.

1. Nude is so in this year A) Its cosy B) It reminds you of sinking your feet into the hot golden sand while the sea sweeps you off your feet like no man could ever manage.

2. Keep the accesssories at minimum as it looks professional, chic and poised. But go for statement pieces! Like this "Marks and Spencers Autograph Bauble Bead Collar necklace." At only £15! & just think you can recycle this necklace and use it all througout spring! Because statement pieces like these simply do not go out of fashion.

3. The colours for this Autumn right up till Spring will be colours like biege, sandy golds, warm russet colours that remind you of sitting beside a warm cosy fire. Plums, ivory, jewel shades like emerald, sapphire, wine red, amber, deep purple, navy & dark grey.



4. As for makeup and hair I predict that its time to ditch the brights & go for the lights. Nude shades, think delicate colouring that was long in fashion featured in countless Austen  & Bronte novels. So keep the base minimal, with just a hint of plummy colour for lips and the eyes dark and smokey working that female executive look. ;)



5. Bye bye pasty legs and HELLO sleek wonderfully willowy raven clad ones! Giving us plenty of time to work on getting the perfect Gisele pins!


6. Corset style contraption girdle belts . Good thing to or how else am I gonna diguise the anual winter weight gain that comes from miserable weather. The chicest way to wear a corset belt is to layer over your coat to stop that frumpy padded look that will only make the thinnest woman in the world look fatter that she really is.

7. Exaggerate your silohette but only the shoulders and hips! Think puffed out net petticoats, shoulder pads or big jewellary. Because the more exaggeratted your shoulders and hips are...... the smaller the waist! But remeber if your going to exaggerate make sure top and bottom match or you will end up pear or ready to topple over from the over GaGaness of it all.

8. Think vintage, cream lace, victorian. Out are the bright vest tops and in are blouses in creams that make your mouth water and hanker for sophisticated eating out.

9. Shoewear should match either top or bottom of your outfit. Out are the random splashes of colour that wouldn't look out of place at a carnival and in are the sophisticasion of a woman or man who knows how to dress themselves and means buisness. Boots, brouges, flats the one shade are back so bye bye Grandels!

10. Remember dressing for your shape and complexion works better than the latest weekly trends.

These top 10 trends are to last you till spring so enjoy!
