Touch of Animal ....

Leopard Print has to be one of the coolest animal prints out there - and yes I am slightly obesessed with it!!!!

Animal print is a celeb wardrobe essential, as it is can jazz up your party outfit or add a quirky touch to your plain tee and jeans.

Today I am wearing a Leopard Print Shirt from Desire Clothing ..... a bargain at £20!!!

Rihanna adds a splash of leopard print to contrast her chic, white trouser suit.  She's gone for a more grown-up glam look, but keeps it edgy and cool with a slick of red lippy.

Finish the look with a dash of lippy and you’re good to go.”

Wear Winter Knits Now ....

Today I am wearing a Denim Dress with a http://www.boohoo.com/ cardi ....

To help you get your head around autumn/winter trends in summer, here are a few stylish ways to wear knitwear from Shopstyle trend expert Sarah Bush:

1.     Fine knits are versatile enough to be worn with skirts, cinched in with a belt over a dress, tucked into shorts or trousers or worn over the top of skinny jeans.

2.     Accessorise with skinny belts around the waist for a more sophisticated look, a tribal necklace for a bohemian feel or a patterned scarf for the colder days.

3.     Stick to muted colours for a city-chic style, or if you are feeling bold, go for a cobalt blue or emerald green to contrast the dreary skies.

4.     To dress for those chilly summer nights, tuck a fine-knit nautical striped top into a pair of chinos, and team with a pair of killer heels.  ShopSyle has picked out the best summer knits across all brands for your wardrobe investment here.
