Yes, slinky, silky, loose-fitting trousers are the thing to be sporting this spring/summer. Seen at Stella McCartney, Lanvin and Paul Smith, they’re more Audrey Hepburn, and less Colleen Rooney. Leave the terry towelling and fleece at home, this look is about paisley prints and sexy s... Stacey Malvern Fri, 03 Feb 2012 09:33:26 GMT Style 3876 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/5-trends-you-should-try.html When you’re on a budget, there is very little grey area when it comes to new trends - to me they’re either something I love (printed trousers), are hideous (neon), or unwearable if you’re over a certain age (hotpants, brothel creepers and thigh high boots).  Just because something looks like it exploded all over the high street, doesn’t mean I want to dress myself in a pair of acid yellow skinny jeans. But still, every season, I like to follow my whims and incorporate a few key items t... Jennifer Trak Wed, 01 Feb 2012 10:00:52 GMT Style 3873 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/fancy-pants-why-i-love-printed-trousers.html I could not be happier that the shops seem to have exploded with printed trousers in every incarnation. I no longer have to trawl charity tops for a musty old pair that are droopy in the crotch. No more digging out granny’s castoffs from the attic and having to take out the waist or wearing them as leggings (granny was a tiny lady). Not only is there every colour and print under the sun, they fit well and are actually flattering to the naked eye. Jennifer Trak Wed, 25 Jan 2012 10:18:39 GMT Style 3862 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/the-lynx-effect-for-ladies.html You know Lynx? The amazing fragrance for men that makes us lose all control instantly and just want to rip the clothes off whatever hunk of man meat we catch a whiff of the stuff on? The one with the totally realistic adverts where hundreds of gorgeous women shed their garments and run towards a poor Lynx-drenched chap who doesn't stand a chance? Well, now all that passion could be o... Lori Smith Mon, 23 Jan 2012 12:41:18 GMT Style 3859 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/spring-and-summer-essentials-for-2012.html Forget fetish and pack your power jumper in storage, the new spring trends are out in full force and are ready to be shopped. From pretty pastels, eye-catching brights, Olympic-inspired sports luxe, we’re barely into 2012, far from hanging up our winter coats and chunky knits, yet all talk is on SS12. With new season essentials landing in stores already, it seems the season’s are moving quicker than Anna Wintour in between shows.  Stacey Malvern Fri, 20 Jan 2012 15:18:00 GMT Style 3856 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/animal-jumper-love.html It’s a bit of an awkward time of year for shopping. It’s the tail end of the January sales, it’s sometimes super cold outside and then confusingly sunny and mild. It’s much too early for nonsense like icy pink cropped t-shirts or Fifties style floral dresses. I don’t feel like buying clothes right now that I blatantly won’t wear until April at least. So what’s a girl to do if she ain’t ready for the spring clothes trickling into the shops but feels like weeping at the thought of going ... Jennifer Trak Tue, 17 Jan 2012 09:44:00 GMT Style 3848 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/thrifty-and-fashionable-ways-to-save-money.html Thrifty Ideas for January As predictable as the Christmas comedown is every January, it’s also the traditional time of year to be extremely skint. After trying to stick to a budget buying gifts, the two weeks before Christmas were a blur of stuffing anything made of pure butter into my mouth and clicking “Buy it now” on Amazon.com. This doesn’t mean you have to ignore your debit card for the entire month of January. There are a few things you can still afford to splurg... Jennifer Trak Wed, 11 Jan 2012 10:00:00 GMT Style 3840 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/cheer-up-buys-for-january.html On the first day of going back to work, it’s not easy to keep the spirits up. After a week of lying around and scoffing everything in the fridge while leaving a trail of Quality Street wrappers in my wake, reality is difficult to face. I will miss waking up at 11am on a weekday, my most pressing concern getting through the third season of my box set of The Sopranos with the cat at my side.  Jennifer Trak Tue, 03 Jan 2012 10:41:55 GMT Style 3829 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/versace-for-hm-cruise-collection-ss12.html Donnatella Versace strikes the high street again. This time with a brand new cruise collection for SS12 in collaboration with H&M on January 19th, 2012. The best part is that it’s only available online - so those of us averse to queuing up at the crack of dawn for a chance to buy a skirt (and potentially get stabbed by a hanger or trampled by a crazed blogger or fanatic), can wake up and simply log onto our computers. Sweet relief. As much as I was tempted by a few... Jennifer Trak Wed, 28 Dec 2011 11:33:36 GMT Style 3820 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/christmas-jumpers-a-spotters-guide.html There was a time when Christmas jumpers were considered cringe-inducing embarrassments. How we guffawed at Colin Firth in his reindeer sweater in Bridget Jones’s Diary! Thankfully, those dark days are over and Christmas jumpers are now perfectly acceptable attire for fashionable festive folk. Jen Evans Mon, 12 Dec 2011 12:30:00 GMT Style 3793 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/party-style-with-asos-fashion-finder.html The party season has arrived, meaning if you don’t have your LBD, sequins or feathers at the ready your missing out. For those of you who are prepared (guessing you have your presents bought and wrapped too?) ASOS Fashion Finder has a early Christmas treat for you. They have teamed up with Reiss to offer one lucky winner a £300 s... Stacey Malvern Fri, 09 Dec 2011 11:55:44 GMT Style 3791 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/benettons-curve-enhancing-pin-up-sweater.html While many articles of clothing are meant to help hide or disguise “a multitude of sins”, the Pin Up sweater from United Colors of Benetton actually wants to enhance and show off your curves. Cate Sevilla Wed, 07 Dec 2011 15:03:00 GMT Style 3787 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/paul-and-joes-cat-cosmetics-for-ss12.html Not since MAC’s collaboration with Hello Kitty have I been so excited about a new cosmetics launch. This January, Paul and Joe Beaute are celebrating their 10th anniversary with an absolutely adorable Spring 2012 collection by fellow cat-loving designer Sophie Albou. While the MAC at Hello Kitty collection was a bit over the top (I am still upset that I didn’t splurge on the Hello Kitty engraved face compact) and not to everyone’s taste, Paul and Joe Beaute’s latest offering is a much ... Jennifer Trak Wed, 07 Dec 2011 10:11:00 GMT Style 3785 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/in-search-of-something-different-at-clothes.html A visit to Clothes Show Live is a rite of passage for teenage girls in the West Midlands. They enter with the assumption that they’ll be scouted by a modelling agency, then leave with deflated dreams sweetened by heaving bags of cut price cosmetics. Jen Evans Mon, 05 Dec 2011 09:50:00 GMT Style 3781 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/the-next-big-collaboration-marni-for-hm.html The queues and debris had only just begun to settle at H&M, and then dropped the news that Marni was next in line for a collaboration. Fresh from a Donatella take-over and hot-on-the-heels of a shopping frenzy that saw a record sell out in just 15 minutes, H&M announced that Italian label, Marni will land 8 March  2012. Stacey Malvern Thu, 01 Dec 2011 17:00:00 GMT Style 3778 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/the-best-winter-warmers.html Anyone who’s ever nearly frozen to death at a bus stop knows the importance of bundling up when winter strikes. Even a stroll in the beautiful snowy park can be extra unpleasant if you’re not fitted out with at least a knitted hat to keep your head free from frostbite. There is, however, a fine line between looking warm and chic and looking like you’re about to go ice-fishing at a moment’s notice. Even if you don’t live in Minnesota, it still gets pretty cold out there at night. And it... Jennifer Trak Tue, 29 Nov 2011 14:00:00 GMT Style 3769 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/freya-lingeries-loungwear-perfect-for-winter.html Unless you are one of those people who think it's acceptable to wear sweat pants to the grocery store or your pajama bottoms to Starbucks, chances are you’ll agree that PJs are for sleeping in, only.However, when the temperature starts to drop and even your central heating isn’t enough to warm up your flat, chances are putting on normal clothes doesn't sound appealing. You want to be warm, you want to be comfortable, but you also don’t want to look like a hungover college stu... Cate Sevilla Mon, 28 Nov 2011 17:00:00 GMT Style 3768 http://style.bitchbuzz.com/fabulous-christmas-window-displays.html Everyone knows the best thing about Christmas is the chocolate treats and chance to wear tinsel in your hair with complete fashion prowess, right? Well, not quite. Swiftly overtaking our passion for sweet treats this Christmas is the festive-themed department store window.If you’re lacking some Christmas spirit, I implore you to take trip to your nearest department store.
