Best of 2008: On Trend Item
The Christmas season is a great time to clear out your wardrobe but which trend items of 2008 will you carry through to 2009? I asked you which on trend item was your favourite this year and you voted for the plaid shirt. Worn by the likes of Lauren Conrad and Kimberly Stewart the shirt looks great with jeans for a casual daytime look.
Style for Style: How to Wear Tartan Skirt
So you've probably already taken my word for it that tartan is a trend and have seen it emerge on the High Street but when you get the items home, how do you actually wear it? Well I have taken on the task for you!
I picked a tulip shaped check skirt (£15) from Dorothy Perkins which I particularly liked because of the unusual shape.
Trend Alert: Plaid Shirts
Plaid shirts (aka tartan) are all the rage this Autumn/Winter. They're warm, comfortable and they look terrific with skinny jeans or cords. Celebrities such as Lauren Conrad from MTV's hit show The Hills has been spotted in three different plaid tops this season alone.
Style for Style: How to Wear Tartan Tights
You'd have to have been on another planet since February to not know that tartan is bang on trend this autumn. Appearing on the catwalk at House of Holland and D&G the trend has now filtered to the High Street and to tights! I decided to try out a pair to find out how to wear this season's hottest trend.
Fab Follow Up: Tartan
For this week's Fab Finding challenge I asked you to put together a tartan ensemble. I started you off with this slouch beanie (£8) from Topshop and asked you to put together an outfit for the tartan trend.
Many of you tagged key tartan items which you can see here.
Come Fab Finding With Me: On Trend Tartan
There is a slight twist to this week's Fab Finding challenge. Instead of asking you to put an outfit together for an occasion, I am asking you to put together an outfit for a trend! Over the next few weeks I will be asking you to put together different outfits for Autumns key trends starting with tartan!
Love it or Hate it: Kimberly Stewart in Tartan
Celebrity hairdresser James Brown celebrated his birthday yesterday surrounded by his London based party girls. The likes of Kate Moss, Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Jo Wood partied at Volstead last night. But it was Kimberly Stewart who caught my fashion eye as she wore a brightly coloured tartan shirt dress for the occasion.
Look of the Day: Rockin' Tartan Plaid
Style Bandit is looking like a bird straight out of London. She's rockin' tartan plaid like a fashion pro. Smart lady for tempering the loud print with a black blazer and studded booties.
Back to Cool: Empire Records
With the current '90s grunge revival comes Dr Martens, tartan skirts and big knitted jumpers. When I see this look I can't help but think of classic '90s movie Empire Records starring Liv Tyler as Corey.
Corey is a bit clueless but adored by the oh-so-cute A.J.
Which Heritage Trend Do You Prefer?
Autumn/Winter sees the return of classic British looks, such as tartan, at D&G and House of Holland, military styling at Ralph Lauren and Alexander McQueen and country house chic at Daks and Carolina Herrera.
Think silk head scarves, tweed and long, leather gloves, as in Paul Smith's country house-inspired collection.
But which of these Heritage trends are you most excited about?
