The future looks pretty


Hi,
A belated Happy New Year.
Just as we are thawing out, I thought it would be a nice idea to get a little glimpse of what lies ahead, not mystic Meg style, but what you will be wearing in the new season.
Spring/ Summer looks set to be a time to look pretty. Florals and pastels make a comeback, which is refreshing, after a season of black and thermals!
This daisy chain ruched dress from French Connection £75 is just a little taster of what you can expect.
Keep an eye out for www.thefashionfix.co.uk to get a full update of the trends.
Will you be glad to get out of black? I can't wait.

Christmas panic

Hi,
With only 8 days to go and Christmas pressies and lunch to think about, you may be in a bit of a panic ( I know I am). I thought I would show you this great outfit for Christmas day lunch, although probably best to get changed into it after you have made the lunch. The outfit is from Wallis and the leggings can easily be dressed up or down. As I am typing this, it is snowing heavily and my kids are overexcited about the prospect of school being closed a day before they are due to break up. With kids off, pressies to wrap, turkey to buy and lunch to plan, I may not get to blog again until the New Year. So, here are my top 10 tips for Party dressing
1. LBD- little black dress
2. Embellished bag, necklace, shoe or belt
3. Sequins- on any garment
4. Skyscraper heels
5. Patterned tights
6. Metallic clutch bag
7. A tux
8. Leather skinnies
9. Disco dress, the shinier the better
10. Lots of party invitations
Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year

Party on- 16 days to go!

Hi,
Only 16 days to go! The parties have began and the question is what to wear? Don't panic, help is at hand! This Christmas a key look is glamour, glitter, sequin and sparkle and this fab dress from Hobbs is a Christmas cracker ( no pun intended). I absolutely love this dress, you can dress it up with stilettos or down with over the knee socks and biker boots. Caberet dress £199 and Haven clutch £99.
Enjoy the party
Will you sparkle this Christmas? Have you got your party outfits together? Are you a dress up or down party goer?

5 weeks and counting


Hi,
You may not have noticed ( if you live in a box), but since the beginning of October every shop is either selling or decorated with all things Christmas and every television advert is pushing another toy for our kids to ask for on their Christmas list, as if it wasn't long enough already! Well the good news is Christmas day is 5 weeks today! Yipee, I hear you say. Before you start to panic about everything you need to get done, I can help you a little with tips on what to wear to the many parties you have been invited to. This party season it is a time to sparkle, shine and dazzle and this dress at £75 and the bracelet at £15 from New Look, ticks all the boxes.
I will keep you posted on what to wear and you can concentrate on the present buying. The countdown begins!

One shoulder?


Hi,
Sorry there has been a shortage of blogs, but I have been busy, it's that time of year. With thoughts of Christmas and soon to be parties and invitations, I thought I would show you how fashion has come over all asymmetric. A one shouldered dress shows a little flesh, but has the security of one strap. Sexy, demure and sure to make an impact. This one shouldered stud party dress is from Warehouse £100.
I love this look and you will find versions in many High street stores.
Will you bare a shoulder? Do you like this style?
Don't forget to take a look at www.thefashionfix.co.uk

Lashings of leather


Hi,
This season think edgy street style and urban tough. Butter soft leather in black can be found in biker jackets, trousers and dresses in most high street shops. With studs and zips a key detail on clothing, bags and belts. This French Connection outfit ticks many boxes. Plain top £35, fur gilet £110, Leather trousers £220, strappy heel £140 and encrusted ring £18. A super cool outfit.
Will you be wearing leather trousers this Winter?
Take a look at www.thefashionfix.co.uk for more ideas of what to wear.
