Next season’s collections have been displayed beautifully in London, Milan, Paris and New York, so let’s see what Autumn and Winter hold. This season is very important for two reasons. Firstly, it encompasses the change in fuctionality in clothing from bohemian, laid back image-centred summer styles to a more practical winter-warmer. And secondly, it contains the Christmas party season – the most eagerly anticipated date in any fashion calendar.If you’re planning on turning heads at the end of 2009, you’ll need to look out for these key trends.

Considering the financial meltdown of the past year, it is not surprising that the old saying “Make Do and Mend” has made a comeback. Most of us have become a lot more conservative about our spending habits, and this has meant that vintage has become not only a style statement, but a necessity.

Eighties inspired looks are being re-made in the form of quilting and chain handles. Chains & quilting can be found on the shelves of most charity shops, not mentioning the many redundant pieces littering the backs of our mothers’/aunts/grandmothers closets. If you adored the Chanel 2.55esque chain handle in spring/summer, here is an easy way to instantly transform it into a bang on-trend look. The chain handle was slung carelessly over our shoulders in Spring and Summer. Now, we need to wrap the chain around our hands to create the shape of clutch handbags. Still effortless, but right up to date.

If you want to buy new, but keep it vintage inspired, I would recommend investing in tweed accessories. The English Heritage is a look that fashion designers have fallen in love with. Woolly and warm tweed purses and handbags will have you head-over-heels and are perfect for teaming with this season’s must-have cosy, knitted styles.

We’ll need something to take us from crisp winter days into party nights. Undeniably, there’s one look that can spice up eveningwear better than any other… That is safari-inspired prints. Whether that is mock-croc patent leather handbags, shaggy faux fur or wild zebra and leopard prints. Free your inner animal with a handbag that shows off this key look. Just keep it faux, please.

Any girly-girls out there who are more sex-kitten than lioness, don’t let your whiskers get in a twist. Pretty embellishments and hand-sewn detailing were all over the catwalks in last season’s collections of designer handbags. And good news, these aren’t exclusive to the catwalk, you’ll find them on the High Street too. Delicate beading and colourful buttons keep the arts and crafts style at the top of our must-haves. However, harsher stud and zip detailing has inspired a more gothic feel. Scarily, in perfect time for Halloween!

Let’s be honest. These days there are hundreds of handbag styles to choose from. As a consumer, where do you actually begin? Do you follow the fashion experts? Does the latest IT handbag) necessarily mean that you must have that bag this season? Do you select one that will compliment your body shape and clothes you’re wearing? Or do you choose quality with an affordable price tag? Obviously YES for all of the above. But there are also other things to consider also. Trying on a handbag is just as important as trying on clothes. Where your handbag rests will actually draw the most attention. If someone is glammed up, the first detail others will notice is accessories, most likely your handbag. A handbag can actually make or break your look. Two important factors to consider when finding the perfect handbag for your body type is size and shape. That choice is more difficult for tiny and shorter ladies. Small and classic handbags generally work best. Focus on smaller handbags) that fit tightly and comfortably underneath your shoulder. It’s all about proportion. They work perfectly with figure proportions and add length to the body and arms. More defined round shapes, such as the gaucho & silverado styles, work too. Another perfect alternative is a clutch or a purse). They are versatile during the day and can carry all your necessities at night. Go for h. Also consider the handbag handles and their positioning. The handle drop should not have too much. A handbag that sits below your hips will make you appear shorter. If you need a sling/messenger bag, be sure the shoulder strap is adjustable and let the bag rest near your hips and no lower. Avoid oversized, bulky bags unless you need an overnight or weekender. Big sizes will definitely not be flattering for your shape. For tall women, some handbag styles may not work. If you are tall, rectangular and square structured shapes will work well for you, such as motorcycle and paddington styles. Lately, oversized handbags are the latest fad. Fashion loves the oversized trend in handbags and clothing. So the best tip? Consider a bag that’s not too oversized. Don’t go over the top. Go for box styles or rectangular shapes. The biggest mistake that many women make with these styles is functionality. Never carry an oversized bag empty. Oversized bags will look empty with just your wallet and keys inside. Use these type of bags as a shopper tote. Now, that’s simply easy. In addition, never allow an oversized handbag sit pass your waist. Straps should be short or adjustable. Not only will the bag look better, but its weight won’t put pressure on your lower back. It’s important for you to move comfortably and easily. Let the handbag speak for itself. Do the inside compartments hold all your necessary essentials? Do you like its style and overall look? In the end, you have to be contented. After all, a handbag should be a girl’s best accessory, not a burden.
