SHINE ON: A/W'13 Sparkle and Shine Trend

It's Autumn going on Winter, the Selfridges Christmas Store is open, scarily enough there are only 15 weekends left until Christmas and we are looking at dusting off last years party wear to match this seasons new Sparkle and Shine trend.

It's easy to save your sequins and bling for Christmas but why wait till then? We are talking about mixing it up and throwing an embellished jacket over your fave band tee with jeans and boots or maybe try sequined skirt with a baggy knit with tights and boots. We are expecting a huge delivery for all stores and online soon and we know it will be full of the best party gear..

This is when we give you an example of our favourite looks from the designers who make these trends for us to filter through and make our own:

IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT! A/W13 Tartan Trend

We are looking at all of our A/W13 trends that we have arriving in stores as well as keeping track of what people are layering up with in the streets and pulling out from the catwalks and we have to say check is back!!
Checks, tartan or plaid, however you describe it we are looking at how it returns every year and still makes us so excited to wear it. Punk, twee, casual, retro, grunge, whatever your style everyone will have at least one tartan item hanging around.

Here are a bunch of reason why we love it:

CLUELESS


KURT


LIV IN EMPIRE RECORDS


PUNK WESTWOOD


From those inspirations we move on to how Designers have taken the classic fabrics and created fresh styles but kept the careless attitude that you associate with plaid. The shows from New York, Paris, London and Milan Fashion Weeks  were covered in it and a few of our favourites are:













As you know we look to the streets, bloggers and general cool kids for inspiration too and will be taking note of what and how you are wearing your checks this season. Here are a few images we have on our mood boards already:

ANIMAL BABES


CARA DELEVINGNE


THE QUEEN MICHELLE (KINGDOM OF STYLE BLOG)


LUANNA PEREZ (LE HAPPY BLOG)


HOT LEGS


So we are absolutely so excited for the Autumn to commence and for us to start layering and planning our clashing plaid looks. Pull out your old pieces or invest in some trend worthy pieces from WE ARE COW to spruce up your A/W13 wardrobe!

I suppose like they say.. "If it ain't broke - Don't fix it"
