A/W 2010 Style Want - The Aviator Jacket

So it was London Fashion week February 2010 and the hottest trend on the Burberry catwalk was the Aviator Jacket. The world's fashionistas couldn't wait until September to get hold of this trend, so Burberry put their collection on sale in February, selling out immediately.
It's now August and we're all planning are Autumn (Fall)/Winter Wardrobes. Have no fear ladies, the wonder that is the highstreet as come through for us. Hot in this week are these Aviator lovelies  - Here is my pick of my faves:

This River Island beauty isn't really leather but looks super cosy, non the same. 

Asos - One of my fave online retailers has released this gorgeous little must have. It is real leather, with a detachable fake fur collar and comes in tan, black and khaki. This is my particular favourite.

Net - a - Porter is for me a lust over online retailer as my budget doesn't always extend to their pieces. This Aviator Jacket by ACNE is steeply priced but is an investment piece. Made from beautiful taupe leather with a shearling trimming it is a gorgeous cover up, which will last into the future seasons.

I couldn't believe this jacket was gracing the aisles of Next no less. (I associate next with ladies work wear) However, they've hit the style stakes straight on with this gorgeous jacket. It may be faux sheepskin, but it is reasonably priced so a style steal.

Free British Designer Totes - Marie Claire September 2010

In Septembers addition of Marie Claire magazine they are giving away a Free Designer Tote (Shopper) Bag! All the designs are by hot new British fashion designers, including Temperley, William Tempest and PPQ.

I have managed to bag myself the PPQ edition, but I really love the Aztec pattern design on the Temperley design, but unfortunately my newsagent did notstock this version. I will probably take a trip to a larger store today to see if I can pick one up.


It is also the Fashion Edit this month in Marie Claire magazine, with all the hot, straight off the catwalk looks for Autumn/ Fall. They have also added an amazing shopping section, so I can lust after the latest designer and high street must haves for the upcoming season.


I adore the satchel trend which has been around for a while, made popular by the Brit pack of Alexa and co.
I particularly heart the Proenza Schouler 'PS1' Satchel in purple but my budget would not allow it, but the Next 'Mulberry' look-a-likie is a steal at £30. What a bargain! This little beauty will see you from the office to a night out.
