It’s so easy to feel safe in that little black number; but let’s be brave and put a little colour back into our lives. Why not try out three of these gorgeous shades, teal, papaya or amethyst Teal with it’s greenish blue hue will really make a statement especially teamed with the right accessories.
If you’re a working girl team a Porter Grey wool blend skirt from shopbop.com with a wool vest from Express. In the evening try out a silk dress from Rebecca Taylor together with Nine West satin heels.
To really warm up the mood; try a smoldering shade in the form of hot papaya. This vibrant shade teams up well with the more earthy shades of makeup such as Mac Art Eye Shadow in Notoriety. The stunning Lauren Moffatt silk dress stands on it’s own but can be warmed up when wearing Diane von Furstenberg cotton wool blazer, and accessorised with Liz Claiborne pebbled leather bag. If you feel a little shy to carry this colour off why not try some of the accessories such as David Aubrey gold plated brass glass and resin pearl earrings or a LAI crocodile belt.
Finally lets talk of that dramatic jewel of a colour amethyst. Demonstrated by many celebrities this shade wow’s everyone. Suiting almost all skin tones it’s an easy option to wear, and looks good with smoky eyes with a shadow such as the Maybelline New York Expert Wear shadow in Night Sky. Plum, purple or violet can all look good for accessories try a Motif leather belt Forever cotton scarf or some Wendy Mink jewelry. The Malo silk dress stands alone, but if you need a coat for chilly evenings the polyester faille coat by Ralph Lauren will keep you warm.

The LRD is the new LBD and offers a statement look that is just perfect for the festive season. It will certainly add a little colour to those dull winter evening and looks great with this season’s much sought-after metallic accessories.
A great place to look for this season’s little red dress is online. It beats going out in the cold anyway! There are an assortment of high street chains that house online websites; it is also a great way to view a wide range of different attire, without having to fight a hoard of fashion hungry woman.
The LRD is definitely a must for any parties you may have on the cards and with Christmas and New Year fast approaching, we guarantee there are a few.
The LRD can also be altered from evening to daywear with a few little tweaks. Think statement opaque tights, chunky knits, fur lined winter boot-heels and a few under layers for extra warmth. This way you get two looks for the price of one!
Dark black nails look great with the LRD as they create a statement contrast and give the outfit a rock chick edge!
Opt for cut out detailing on the waist of the dress if you wish to create the image of a slimmer waist and team with uber high heels in order to create the appearance of longer legs. Remember to bronze yourself with a hint of tan, add a few statement accessories and you are good to go!
Three ways to wear this nifty little number include doubling it up as a miniskirt by popping a cropped knit over the top.
Tone it down by hiding any cut out detailing with a chunky belt and go for the glam-grunge option. Simply add a rock chick biker jacket to the ensemble and rock those caged ankle boots!

Hey girl, hey boy! That is the style contrast of today! Choose from leather and layer-up no nonsense attire with sweats and tees or alternatively sweet evening fabrics with girlie details. Some of winter’s biggest trends look great worn with super feminine additions and pretty heels. Opt for soft hues and statement accessories such as Chanel style tweed jackets in pastel shades and chain and quilt embellished bags.
Revel in your inner tom boy and match tough tom boy tees with sharp tailoring and super masculine embellishments. These could be in the shape of trendy metallic style trainers and high top sneakers.
A trend you may only associate with boyish style can in fact be worked into a girly look with clever detailing. The military trend for example is cutesy when worked with floral detailing. For example why not team a cotton floral dress with distressed leather boots and cashmere socks.
For a tomboy twist opt for a military style jumper, a pair of denim skinnies folded up and a statement belt, give the look a alternative twist with tiger skin or leopard print lace-up boots.
