Urban Deluxe
Reflecting the new season’s grown up, powerful, sexy mood the catwalks were awash with a new way to look glamorous – in the shape of the super luxe separates. These pieces will add real polish to your wardrobe while working with your existing clothes so select your favorite new separate and let it help you shine |
The evening blouse will revolutionize party dressing this season it can be teamed with trousers or skirts which ever is your preference, or even layered under a suit at work ready for going out straight from the office. New Look have one of the best on the high street. The over size pussy bows and complicated high necks of the catwalk have been replaced with a flattering ruffle front that worn open will suit fuller busts while enhance smaller frames if worn buttoned up. This is a sexy look that borrows much from the seventies, so channel the era with your accessories, team with a cocktail ring and over size clutch – and if you dare, glossy Farrah Fawcett flicks. |

Winter’s deluxe vibe means even your coat should make a statement, in reality though it’s hard to make a cocktail coat work for everyday. Which is why this jewel toned double-breasted belted coat from BHS is perfect – in soft wool with wide lapels
it’s just the right side of glam to still be suitable for day looks. Wear it over suits, skirts and trousers for work as well as jeans and boots at the weekend – and feel like a million dollars every time you do, even if you’re not on your way to a cocktail party! |
The winter season is always full of celebration. This year, why not try a luxe skirt suit for special occasions as a change from a dress. Channel the Park Avenue princess in you with an opulent fabric suit like this chic 2-piece from New Look. The beauty is this looks so much more expensive than it really is and will ensure you stand out from the crowd. The jacket will also look great with jeans while the skirt will double up as a great separate teamed with a black top and a belt. Just remember with an opulent fabric, keep everything else simple – black patent pumps and little jewellery (baring one statement piece like this brooch) will be all you need to maintain this manicured Manhattan look. |

The runways declared sequins the go-anywhere glitz for the new season, so take your inspiration from almost every designer and inject your wardrobe with some sequin-chic.
Traditionally a party look, they ruled the catwalk for both day and night. Which is why designer Maria Grachvogel's sequin caplet for Oli is so versatile. Seen here as a traditional evening wear cover-up, this jacket will dress up all your little black numbers for the party season. But you could also team it with jeans or back trousers, with flat boots or heels, for some on-trend glamour whatever the occasion.
Plus, if you don't want to look too sparkly, these black sequins are the perfect way to add subtle shine. |
