Work Wear Tips For A/W12

Christmas is sadly well and truly over and everyone is now back at work. So TV stylist Natasha Dugarin gives us her top tips on work wear for A/W12.

She says: "Leather was big news for Fall 2012, with everyone from Yves Saint Laurent to J Mendel sending it down the catwalk.
"These Hudson leather trousers are a great substitute to your over worn pairs of jeans and are the easiest way to inject some cool- girl glamour into your look.
Wear with a plain block coloured blouse to keep the look elegant and sleek, and remember to always add a heel to elongate the leg."

Christmas Party Season Dressing

TV Stylist Natasha Dugarin offers her tips on what to wear to the Christmas party.

Natasha said: "Fall 2012 catwalks were overflowing with romantically draped gowns in soft flowing silks and satins.

"This Moschino dress is not only on trend, but the classic shape and colour make it a brilliant investment piece.

"The pleating will skim over the figure and hide a multitude of sins, whilst the nipped in waist will draw the eye to the smallest part of the body, giving a more flattering silhouette.

"Black looks great accessorised with gold, so choose simple pieces that can be worn time and time again, like this Yves Saint Laurent clutch and Charlotte Olympia's modern take on the classic court shoe."
