Lorraine's Blog: New-season picks

You can sense the giddiness rising here in the office! This week at ELLE we’ve been planning the big fashion stories, so I’ve been looking at everything you’re going to want to buy (and editing them with the team) in advance. The fashion cupboards overflow…

As it’s Friday and shopping is on every fashion-conscious woman’s mind this weekend, I have done a quick early list of the trends I like and will buy from the new a/w collections: 

•    Trouser suit...

As seen at Miu Miu

•    Boy shirt...

As seen at Hermes

•    Leather piece: pencil skirt...

As seen at Balmain

•    BIG sweater as outerwear...

As seen at Jonathan Saunders

•    Kilted skirt...

As seen at Topshop Unique

•    Knitted dress...

As seen at Stella McCartney

•    Polo-neck/high-collared top...

As seen at Celine

•    Slippers – the new flats...

As seen at Emporio Armani

•    Knee-high boots...

As seen at Givenchy

Have a look at our catwalk shows  and let me know the trends you like on Facebook. I’ll look at them on Monday and let you know the most popular choices so we can include them in the magazine.

Also, I must let you know we are starting a new letters page in the August issue of ELLE where you can talk to the team via social media (Twitter/Tumblr/Instagram/Pinterest… you chose), so look out for that. 

And we’ve got some new-look fashion pages in that issue alongside all the new-season shoots that will define the autumn/winter trends for you.

Sophie Osborne (Mon, 21 May 2012 09:44:25 +0100): My favourite trends for AW12 are:WESTERN- as seen at Isabel Marant - I will be investing in a cowgirl shirt (or two) & customising my vintage cowboy boots with belts & studs.OVERSIZED KNITS - as seen at Jonathan Saunders - I am a huge knitwear fan & always looking for statement pieces & new ways of styling.SLIPPERS - worn with 7/8 length trousers to show a bit of ankle.These trends will all integrate well with my existing style & are easy to translate.
Lauren Aitchison (Wed, 30 May 2012 10:31:17 +0100): The Stella knitted dress is brilliant. The skirt is a brilliant cut. It would suit lots of body shapes too.
