A/W T R E N D I N G
As my favourite season is upon us and I very willingly swap out summer dresses for layers of coats and knitwear, together with my friends at Chadstone – The Fashion Capital I am delving into their curated AW22 Trend Report to explore the Colour Blocking trend.
If you know me, you know that this is not something in my regular repertoire and personal style notes, but in the name of fashion and stepping outside of my comfort zone, we explore!
When I first started to plan my visit to The Fashion Capital, my first thought was Oroton. Admiring the latest collections and beautiful tones of red and chestnut mixed with pink and pops of buttery shades, it is an absolute must visit to add colour into your wardrobe this season. As we begin to layer, we can add in multiple tones, mixing and matching complementary colours to create the Colour Blocking look.
A store I always visit is COS for quality staples and investment pieces such as their beautiful knitwear and coats. Adding a pop of blue with denim and rich ochre and tan leathers gives depth and allows for rotations across your pieces in the wardrobe.
My top tip when Colour Blocking? Add in statement accessories and mix your neutrals with some brighter and richer tones.

Oroton getting it right and giving us a lesson in how to colour Block this season. I love the mix of red and tans and adding in a touch of pink gives the look a whole new layer.
Denim will always be a staple in my wardrobe forever so I made a look based on an item that is on rotation for me. Again the use of the tans and ochre tones but adding in yellows and this chartreuse is the colour pop for the look. If you dare!
