Trend Watch - Autumn/Winter '17 - Red


Marks and Spencer Trainers £29.50





One of the biggest trends for Autumn/Winter 17 is the colour red.

Red is not a great shade for me when it's worn next to my face but, never say never, and in the meantime I'll defintely be trying it out in accessories - shoes, bags, jewellery, embellishments..  

I recently dipped my toe into the trend with a bargain pair of red culottes which are really easy to wear with trainers and a tee (see post here), and a cut price pair of sandals which are great to wear with pale blue denim (see post here) whilst the temperatures are still a little warmer.

Don't forget lipstick and nail varnish too for a quick, more affordable nod to the trend - try this Bobbi Brown lipstick , one of my favourites, and the Chanel nail varnish in Gitane  Both have 10% off in Debenhams over the Bank Holiday weekend.

Let's press on with some inspiration - from Pinterest of course - where else?!


















And here are a few of my favourite red High Street finds to add a pop of colour to your day to day wardrobe.



Zara Red Sock Boot £59.99
Hobbs Thea Sweater now £39


H&M Cotton Wrap Top £19.99


Zara Velvet Earrings £9.99





Mango Faux Fur Coat £119.99





Zara Bucket Bag with Hoop £19.99

Don't you just love a sales bargain?


A few days ago I found this stripe shirt at Marks & Spencer.  I felt compelled to give it a try as it was reduced from £35 to £7.99, plus it was part of the Archive by Alexa range, so I thought the quality and styling would be spot on.  I wasn't disappointed. Except of course by the weather, as I had envisaged myself wearing it with bare legs and a tan sandal. However as it is pouring with rain today I chose to wear it with skinnies and loafers.
