So everything in life is cyclical and so too is life in a busy boutique. We've just come out of our Autumn/ Winter Season and are smack bang in the middle of buying for next Autumn/ Winter. It can get very confusing at times! Elaine & I flew to London for London Fashion Week early on Tuesday moring. With a schedule of seven appointments in two days, we were armed with large coffees and loaded suitcases! :-)
It is always interesting to see new trends emerging. Most notable for me was the re-emergence of sharp tailoring. We had seen a little of this last season (Which is actually this season now, see what I mean about confusing!?) with blazers but for Autumn/Winter 2012 sharp trousers and skirts were aplenty.By Malene Birger showed structured brocade shell tops with a beautiful barely-there lace top underneath.
Lace and knitwear softened her structured silhouettes.

Leather sleeved coats, skirt s & shorts made for beautiful foundation pieces.
Cashmere knitwear, amazing little black dresses and printed little blouses were as always, evident. New mini trends that I noticed were side splits. Diane Von Furstenberg's colectionw as called Rendezvouz and showed tops and filmy silk-chiffon dresses with the same detail. It's a lovely unexpected feature that everyone can wear. Here are some of the looks we bought...
