Bell bottoms
With skinny pants and jeans now so common that they no longer make a statement it was inevitable that a different style would emerge as a trend. It didn’t necessarily have to be this one, but with the comeback of all things 1970s it was inevitable that fashion forward people would turn to and as a style of choice.

Fur Clothing
It’s a fabric that divides people through its controversy, and one that has been a small part of autumn / fall / winter collections in recent years. During autumn (fall) / winter 2011 it all changes and fur clothing plays a large role in many of the collections from the world’s biggest fashion houses.

Wide leg pants

This season is for the solid jewelry trend and it includes everything from cuffs to collars, metal or leather. these statement making necklaces are the last word on polished, put together confidence.

Blue bag
The color blue was used as a single hue not only in handbags and shoes, but was also on straps, trims or edges of purses. It was also used as a contrasting device for dual-toned shoes. Since we have only just started to see the comeback of color, it seems likely that blue will be a palate cleanser not only for designers, but for a lot of consumers too.
