Top:  Joseph cotton poplin shirt.  Pants:  Joseph leather leggings.  Shoes:  Jimmy Choo.  Necklace:  Kenneth Jay Lane.  Purse:  Lanvin satin clutch.

Who doesn’t love to rock dark nails during this time of the year?  J’adore Chanel’s “Rouge Noir” nail lacquer because it’s the perfect mix of black and red that I like.  Btw, this colour was made famous by Uma Thurman in the 1994 movie “Pulp Fiction”.

Knee boots, ankle boots, riding boots and wedge boots are all the rage this season!  My personal favourite is a scene-stealing pair of ankle boots because they give every outfit (especially a LBD) instant impact- so mayjah!  Here are a few fierce booties for any fashionista!

Here are a few more FW11 looks to covet.  I especially love the Victoria Beckham handheld tote- SO lady chic!  The Juicy Couture black lace dress is a feminine and polished evening look- just team with a pair of sky-high heels and a statement clutch for after-dark glam!!

Fall/Winter is here!  This season jewel tones, lady chic and retro from the 40s and 70s dominated the runway.  Chunky gold jewellery and molten metals demand attention while leather and fur add a dose of drama to every look.  Handheld bags, mandatory leopard print (rawrrr!), sequins and lamé are a girl’s best friend.  Oh, and let’s not forget all the FAB embellished shoes!!!  Menswear-inspired accessories such as brogues are at the top of every fashionista’s wish list.  Here, I’ve put together a few of my fave FW11 trend essentials- enjoy!
