Fearne Cotton

Fearne Cotton is one of my all time favourite idols.
I think she has a great personality, and I love her fashion sense, she always looks fantastic whether she's in a posh dress or a baggy jumper. I love the way she looks very natural too, she seems as if she doesn't spend much time getting ready but still looks good whatever.
I saw this picture of her, and think it sums up my previous sentence well...

Wearing just a simple a black and white striped baggy jumper and black jeans, yet she looks great.

I think that the accessories she has used also work really well and finish the outfit perfectly. The useage of big, chunky rings, a simple black bag and all colours to match contrast greatly with the bright-in your face red nailpolish.

I also like they way she has her hair down and her make up is very simple and plain. This again shows that she is very natural and isn't bothered about having a "cover girl" look, she is happy and comfortable with her own unique style, and I aspire to that.

Fashion Trends for Spring/Summer 2010

Spring/Summer 2010's expected fashion trends are here!


There are four predicted fashion trends; Popular Appeal, Ode to Nature, Light Tech and Southern Folk.

Popular Appeal consists of 60's and 70's retro looks. From worn denim to high waisted skirts and trousers. The colours are very bold dark colours, consisting of mustard yellows, dark crimsons and navys.
Ode to Nature consists of very antique, religious looking items. The colours are very pastel. This gives the trend a romantic feel to it, such as the floaty pastel dresses.




Light Tech consists of technology related designs, with links to the 50's. Items to be seen are ones such as big, heavy looking trainer boots, big skirted dresses and sharp cut lab coats. The colours are very bold turquoises, pop pinks and acidic oranges.

Southern Folk consists of a mix of influences from different cultures. The clothing includes items with lots of beading and deep strong colours. These colours range from deep pinks to rich wooden looking browns.


As we can see from these trends, there are lots of items that are influenced by the past. So whether your going to be rading your mum's old wardrobe or out shopping on the high street, old is definitley the new new.
