New Look F/W 2014 Collection preview

Another trip for beautiful Dubai with another personal favourite high street store "New Look" . Everyone knows how much I love new look's shoes. The are always in style and very comfy, I can still remember my first pair of silky purple heels, that I got specially to wear at my bachelorette party, and since then, I almost never pass by the malls without paying New look a visit.

The New  A/W '14 collection as usual is huge and diverse featuring this season's most covetable key pieces and trends.
Fabrics are smooth and futuristic and decoration comes in bold linear patterns, flashes of pink and daring animal prints. Think sculpted shapes, layering and graphic black and white. Relaxed daywear sees brushed cotton-check shirting mixed with chunky knitwear and felted wool in gritty khaki tones.  Boyfriend jeans and acid washes update the denim collection.
Landing in-store in time to address every festive fashion challenge, New Look’s evening story revisits the late 1960s for fabulous party wear. Lush velvets and shimmering metallics are covered with embellishment, complemented by gorgeously bejewelled party shoes. Lingerie has never looked more feminine or eye-catching. Nightwear is captivating in dark floral prints and lace underwear is almost too pretty to cover up.Throughout the entire collection, eye-catching embroidery, fringing and flashes of fluoro transform easy pieces into absolute must-haves. Checks are a big deal in everything from elegant tailoring, statement clutches and killer heels to cosy scarves, sweaters and blanket coats.
Outerwear is varied and stylish; parkas with uber-luxe furry hoods, cocoon coats in bold checks and pastels and over-sized boyfriend coats in mannish checks. 
Throw on some soft faux fur in the form of scarves, snoods and stoles, or as detailing on bags. In contrast, footwear toughens up with chunky soles, textural interest and metal hardware.
 New Look’s womenswear range includes Petites, for women 5’3” and under, and Inspire, available up to size 28.

 The launching party was something to remember, I got to meet New look's lovely hardworking and collaborating team, a bunch of beautiful bloggers and journalists from my second home KSA, Kuwait and Baharian. the New Look Middle East team, succeeded in turning a humble restaurant into an outstanding setup, guests were enjoying the great music, food and of course viewing out the beautiful collection. A member of the team, showed me around, and I kept on asking almost every piece, I probably caused her a headache, I am sorry but I really loved loved a lot of pieces, the thing that made me hurry up to the shop after the event, and get a really beautiful jumpsuit that I wore to a fashion show afterwards.

The Fabolous Fall/Winter collection by Koton

Winter is by way my favourite season ever. I love the feeling of the freezing morning breeze against my face as I get out of the house, sipping hot chocolate, gathering at nights by the heater and winter clothes. Yes as contrary to most of the people I adore winter clothes, I believe they are so chic and elegant. Easy to style, layer and you can create endless looks changing just a jacket, scar or boots. I was thinking the other day that it has been awhile since I shopped for winter clothes since m last winter I spent in Australia where it was summer by that time, so I felt like I really miss wearing big knits, over-sized jackets and coats, and the boots I definitely missed the boots, I was thinking let's go window shop first and see the new collections, it was by the time I checked my email and found an invitation to Koton's latest Fall/winter collection launching party in Dubai. I was so excited I was on the next plane to Dubai, for the private preview of the collection. The event was held at the Radison Blu media city hotel. I had chance to meet the lovely team behind Koton Middle East, who kindly showed me my way around the collection display, explaining to me how the collection is inspired from the British 70's rock stars era, one of my favourite era in music, well I think it is everyone is favourite era not just me, I remember borrowing my dad's old cassette tapes and listening to them, and them watching these video clips for my fav. 70's rock and lusting over the edgy clothes..These clothes I saw that day by the Koton preview. Think tartan and lots of zippers with leather mini skirts, leather pants and boots, hound tooth coats with over-sized hats. The next collection for me to see was the Dallas, a collection much inspired by the cowboy culture, so we are speaking cowboy boots, fringes, browns and camel colours and the Mexican ponchos, I was never a poncho girl, but I really liked Koton's I even picked my favourite one, when I was asked to film about my favourite pieces. It is because they are so heavy and super trendy, they make you feel warm and at the same time they look great. Then comes the Lux collection which is a super feminine one,  ruffle silk blouses, chic skirts, elegant coats, classic pants and dresses, works fantastic for the working girls, or for classy outings. Their Denim collection is another great one, lots of trending models and colours with the most affordable prices ever, super quality and huge variety of sizes.
Now let's talk about kids wear,the had the cutest possible little pieces. It is like miniature pieces like the women's wear,same skirts, ruffles blouses and leather mini skirts...so cute, i wished I had a daughter when I saw them.

If you are looking to shop a huge divers collection with amazing quality and affordable prices,trendy cuts and faboulous colours head to the nearest Koton store and check their just faboulous collection.
