What did you do with Jimmy? 1

So we waited to see what the fashionistas of the web would come up with… and this is what I have found so far. This Belgium girl did what most of us would have done; slap on the bracelet and the belt and call it a day. She does however make, what could be a very matronly dress, look youthful and fun.

So I am not a huge fan of socks, and even less about socks with tights but somehow this fashionista from Hong Kong makes them look quirky yet cute pairing them with her new JC heels. Here is, probably, the most sober piece of the entire JC for H&M collection. This being said, the hole outfit screams youthful Parisian with a twist. Quite refreshing so see something else than the belt and the heels.

Kling grabbed herself a pair of the gladiator like hells, you can’t go wrong there. But I am loving the see through crochet cream top over the leather skirt, a lot. Caroline, is one or those girls that can pull off any boyish look, not sure many girls out there could make these Jimmy Choo shoes look so feminine.

Fashionistas, seem to have put their JC dresses and hells straight into the closet and i have a feeling we will be seeing them around Christmas again. To be honest, i think new year’s eve is going to end up looking a bit like this:

GO GREEN

No seriously, and I’m no just talking environmental friendly green, I mean go out and get yourself a nice cargo green “coat”. Looks great on top of leather trousers, jeans and especially dresses. If you are worried it wont keep you warm, it probably wont, so work it Kling Style and pill on the layers under yours (leather jackets, jeans jackets, hoodies, jumpers, you name it it will fit)

Faux fur, faux pas?

If Miss. Moss has being wearing them for some time now, it does indeed look like faux fur is doing a huge come back. Isabel Marant from Zara have created a few nice coats for us to chose from and it looks like the fashionistas of the web have caught up with the trend.

Caroline Blomst sure knows how to make a faux fur effortless and youthful, mixing it with a leather jacket underneath, a pair of boyish black boots, or simply a pair of tight fitting jeans or leather pants.

Spot on in London, this girl knows who to make fur her own.If you thought chic and quirky didn’t work together, then think again! We probably were quite a few to have walked past this particularly coat in topshop but never gave it a second thought. This blogger adopt it and gave it that unique London appeal.

Ida, did a classic version of a leopard print faux fur (from urban outfitters) and wore hers with an all black outfit. At the same time, all the focus is on the coat but it doesn’t scream ‘look at me’ which is refreshing. This blogger sure knows how to work the understated yet fashion forward looks.

At Columbine Style, we get a vintage feel for faux fur paired with washed out jeans, a grey t-shirt and black wedges.
