Hot & happening: wide-leg pants

When you think wide-leg pants, you probably think disco, big wigs and Studio 54. But don’t be fooled: boot cut trousers elongate your legs and make them look skinnier. So why not try it?

Pair your wide-leg pant with a loose blouse or chunky knitted cardigan. And don’t forget to wear high heels: ankle boots or killer pumps are a great way to finish off your outfit.

Hot & happening: velvet

Black velvet if you please.

Velvet is a fabric that looks luxurious with anything and everything. The shimmer is subtle enough for any occasion, and the big touch me factor makes it perfect for dates.

Wear a velvet dress to a party or add a blazer and heels for an office-friendly look. Sophisticated, yet sexy.

Hot & happening: lace dresses

Who thought white lace dresses were only appropriate for a wedding couldn’t be more wrong. This dress easily shifts from day time to night time and can be worn multiple ways.

Go for cute as a button like Rachel Bilson in her Suno dress and pale pink Vanessa Bruno blazer. But you can also toughen it up by combining it with a khaki parka and bad ass boots. The choice is yours!
