Topshop Unique FW 12
Oversize/Grunge/Utility is how I would describe the collection and the jackets this season is what is doing it for me, perfect for draping (!). The jumper in the top left, I NEED IT. The texture and pattern of reptile skin with the combination of the bouffant sleeves and stiff textile is exactly what I have been looking for (subconsciously...). I just adore that dark army green.

PFW Alexander McQueen Spring 2012
You can definitely see McQueen's aesthetics intertwined in each of these looks. The sharp tailoring, delicate feathers and the contradiction between voluminous and slender shapes reflects one of McQueen's last collections. This is a much less regal affair, however with the rich golden tones, a nude palette and soft ruffles all round, it gives us this beautiful and ultra wearable collection.

PFW Balmain Spring 2012
My top ten looks from the Balmain Spring collection which has the remnants of a slightly more casual Alexander McQueen shows from a few seasons back. Having said that though, Olivier Rousteing has made a grand debut as the new creative director of Balmain with an extravagant matador theme to the show and those fabulously eye-catching patterned leather skinnies (which will certainly take the world by storm).
One of my favourite shows this season.

MFW Moschino Spring 2012
Every jacket = Perfection, Timeless, Chic.
There were other styles and colour palettes with less metallics in the collection but they kind of seemed like buffers... something to expand this season's collection, nothing that would make me OR you go "WOW". You may have noticed that this selection of the collection has some similarities to Balmain's collection from a couple of seasons ago, this is not criticism, just an observation and I am loving what I am observing.

MFW Versace Spring 2012
When the leather trend was taking the nation by storm, I wasn't so keen on it, but I was quickly persuaded by Vogue when I realised that wearing leather doesn't mean you have to look manly and boxy with a mod rock heavy metal vibe or, in the other extreme, someone who likes to perform S&M.
Leather, if tailored well, can be feminine and sultry as can be seen in this tiny snap shot of Versace's collection. The studs are exactly where they should be and I am adoring the oceanic theme with the seahorses and shells. It's new and fresh.
For those of us who are classed as tall, we should hop on board the long pencil skirt trend as it gives us a slimmer frame without drastic measures and will give you that all important high fashion glam. But I stress that you need one of a good quality as the poor quality fabrics tend to wrinkle and stretch and tend to lose their shape very quickly.
For all you petite girls, shorts are the way to elongate your legs, but make sure you find the shorts with the right cut off point otherwise it will have adverse effects. What I have also found is that high waisted shorts are the best for hiding little tummy pooches and it cuts off at the slimmest point on your body which will you give that gorgeous hourglass shape which some of you many may be looking for.

MFW Fendi Spring 2012
Karl Lagerfeld is serving up playful stripes and cut out shoulders this season. Those LBDs are screaming for me! Although this collection isn't as innovative as some of the others, there is something about the shapes and pattern combo which makes them stand out. It's nothing that makes you go WOW, but more like mmmmmmm!
