A&W

Is Your Look 2008 Enough?
While browsing last weeks Grazia I found an good artical called 'Is your look 2008 enough?' so I decided to put these sets together and show you my interpretations of the a&w look for '08.


This is my first of my five looks. Firstly it has the Structured bag, 'sharpen your fashioista elbows - this season's most fabulous bags are structured, lady like and v. sophisticated.' The next look is the Polo neck 'It's time to dust off your skinny polo jummpers, there perfect foil to the new voluminous tulip skirts and flared. To look bang on lred layer, layer, layer under or over shirts, grandad cardigans and feminine dresses. ' Polo from Shopintuition


I adore this 'geeky' look, the Satchel style leather handbag, is from a vintage site called Rokit is the other big bag for a&w 'o8. Also bang on the money is winter florals, 'Winter florals are much bolder statement than summer's disty designs. Any print goes, form traditinal sprint to abstract florals, but the new interpretation sees bright vivid colours on darker backgrounds.' Skrit from Forever21.



In comes tartan, A-lister fans, Agyness Deyn, MK Olsen, Kelly Osbourne, Lily Allen and Pixy Geldoft. Also a key a&w trend Buttoning up Shirts, 'This season it's not about what you buy, its about how you wear it: dig out classic shirts and button them right the way to the neck.' Shirt from Browns Fashion. Also rediscovering your waist 'belts still rule, but where you wear them has changed this season. This time forget high wasted and accentuate your 'true' waist.' Belt from All Saints,


This look is tottaly fabulous, it to had the structured bag and buttoning up shirts. Socks and shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch.


In, raiding jewellery boxes, 'Vintage-look 'heirlooms' jewellery made a huge comeback on the run ways, where most was definietly more. Get the look by plundering thrift stores for costume jewllery.' jewllery both from vintage sites, dress from topshop.

Please tell me what you think, and let me know if you would like to know where anything is from, Emma.

Ooh, I like the second look best.
And Model was just okay in my opinion, but a lot of people liked it, so maybe you should give it a try if you like books about modeling/fashion.
