Time for F/W 2009 – 2010 shopping!

As people say, get the things you may need ready in good time, time you checked out the hottest looks for this coming fashion season.

Experts say this coming fall and winter will be all about strong silhouettes and sophisticated glamour. Decadent features are present in many F/W 2009-10 key looks and reflect the current economic situation.

However, 80s disco style and bold looks will anyway find their own place in your wardrobe if you want to follow the fashion tendencies in full. It’s like all about girl power! See what I mean.

Get the shoes. Go fancy

Footwear goes surreal this coming season. The more extravagance and crazy you look the better. Opt for dramatic designs and exaggerated heels. Hardware embellishment is really hot, too.

Puss-in-boots style makes its glorious comeback in fall 2009. Long boots win over stilettos.

Moreover, designers let you go further and try thigh-high black suede skinny leg boots, one of the hottest key looks for the winter. Channel the inner Catwoman, girl!

Fancy shoulders

Padded shoulders made the comeback in Spring/ Summer 2009 and the trend remains strong for fall and winter as well. Get bold exaggerated shoulders to get a genuinely In look for this cold season.

80s style

Thanks to Marc Jacobs and the like, a strong disco-diva vibe is back to our wardrobes. Vibrant colors, sequined skirts, leather jackets, graphic tees and large polka dots – you can find inspiration in old 80s music videos and films!

Chain it!

Let some classic beauty in your life. Chain bags that are influenced by the Chanel 2.55 bag are so in vogue for fall and winter 2009 – 2010. Chain strap bags can be worn as lovely clutches and across-body style. Just like with the heels, metal embellishment is really huge for bags, too.

Bold heavy accessories & jewelry

No need to restrain yourself from getting extra large with accessories. Go oversized with chains and studs and jewelry and dramatic silhouettes. Thinking huge chunky rings and cuffs and leather bracelets.

Bold but demure

Glitter is still really hot. Shimmering fabrics are so in for f/W 09-10. To somehow balance the look designers suggest combing sparkling with demure cuts.

Back to the 40s

Go back to the retro look with French chic – cinched waists are present in both casual wear and outerwear. Get ready to see belted coats, skirts and trousers.

Masculine femininity

Female fashion gets mannish. A masculine tailored blazer becomes one of the season’s key pieces. Typical men’s fabrics like tweed enter a woman’s wardrobe in the form of shift dresses and jackets.

Zebra & leopard

Animal prints are still huge. Zebra and leopard prints stand out and dominate the print palette. The characteristic feature of all prints this coming season is that they’re statement – exaggerated and strong.

Capes

Forget about carefully tailored coats. Go free with capes. Designers advise to pair them with elegant shift gowns.

Knits

They’ll keep you warm and trendy during cold months. Make sure your knitted clothes are bold, big and shoulder-padded.

Leather gloves

Love this trend. Unlike other seasons, this time gloves can be absolutely different. Play with colors and shapes. Just make sure the gloves are leather, as this material is definitely a lead one this fall and winter.

Yeti-look

No I’m not asking you to stop cutting hair and having a shower. Channel your inner wild with the Yeti-look coats also known as Chubby. Shaggy coats in vibrant colors – that must be hot! You’ll look drop dead gorgeous and trendy if pair them with thigh-high boots and swagger.

What to wear this winter? The bright primary colors of the last year are gone, but this doesn't mean that 2008/2009 winter is going to be dull and boring. The hottest looks of winter demand colorful choices, architectural clothing shapes and bold combination of different pieces. Tomato reds, teal greens, indigo blues, subtle tones of apricot and honey and rich tones of aubergine purple are going to compete with come back of the grays.
Think bold when choosing clothing for winter 2008-2009, especially if you're looking for a coat. The shape of clothing should make a statement. Fashion designers offer pyramid shaped coats, emphasized hour-glass shaped coats and dresses, clothing with emphasized shoulders line, tulip shaped skirts and carrot top pants. Shapes like those are very expressive, so the garments are mono-colored or indistinctly ornamented and contain as less decorative details as possible. If trendy shapes are too daring for you, go for compromise: variations of large collars. Knitted or furry, modern or vintage style - collar must be big and make a contrast to either texture or fabric or color of the clothing. Collars are not for coats only; they adorn jackets, vests and cardigans too.
This winter is the right time to become romantic biker. Glossy leather clothing, biker jacket and shiny zippers are the must-haves. But this image is neither heavy nor aggressive; leather clothing is combined with fur, knitwear, see-through fabrics and puffy playful skirts.
Grey used to be the new black on the last winter. This color is very gratifying as it goes well with all the other tones and makes a nice background for bright colors. However, the shades of dark slate grey said good bye a year ago and softer silverfish tones appear to accompany large variety of rose quartz, pale taupe, lavender, lemon chiffon and other beiges. The creamy tones work well all together, but they also

compliment rich colors that are trendy 2008-2009 winter.
There's no dress versus skirt discussion for fashion trends of winter 2008/2009. Skirts hadn't disappeared, but fashion designers presented lots of dresses for feminine, femme fatale, prom style or folkloric looks. Favorite patterns for dresses are arabesque and geometric prints. However, the hottest trend is accentuating fabric or texture or shape of a dress instead of accentuating prints. 

Winter Coats and Jacket

Stylish Girls Winter Coats and Jackets

 

With winter rapidly approaching you may be thinking about purchasing a new winter coat or jacket for your girl. There's some great choice available this year that will not only protect your child from winter chills but will also satisfy their need to look good when out and about or with their friends.
Whatever type of coat you are looking for when you start shopping for a winter coat for your girl you should bear in mind a few things first. Make sure the coat you eventually settle on is ok for the climate you live in. If you get a lot of rainfall then buy a coat that is more waterproof than others. If your climate turns very cold during the winter and you get a lot of snow or chilly winds then buy a coat that offers more protection against the cold. Ok with that out of the way what's available this year in terms of stylish girls winter coats?
Well one type of winter jacket or coat that always looks fashionable is a wool coat. These coats usually come in a three quarter length rather than a full length or waist style jacket and this is more practicle for girls as they can't always cope with full length coats. Wool coats are excellent at keeping out the cold winds of winter and have some great designs. This season you can find wool winter coats both with and without hoods. Again consider your climate as a hood offers excellent protection against not only the rain but also wind. If you really don't want a hood on your wool coat then there are plenty available with detachable hoods so this compromise is the best of both worlds. Wool coats look great with plaid designs on them and are suitable for almost any occasion looking stylish whilst keeping your girl warm.
Another popular style of girls winter coat this season is the quilted coat. These tend to be slightly shorter than most wool coats and end around the waist or hips. A quilted coat will usually cost less than a good quality wool coat but can still be found with stylish prints. Again a lot of quilted girls coats come with hoods, both detachable and fixed, so are great in this respect as well.
If your climate is very wet and there is a lot of rainfall then consider a full raincoat for your girl. These offer excellent protection against the wind and rain but aren't necessarily as stylish as wool or quilted coats. The internet is a great place to see the different styles of raincoat available and a little searching can quickly bring some great choices.
