essential fashion week items

Salut lovelies! As you probably already know from my compulsive twitter updates expressing my excitement, I'm attending to Paris Fashion Week (the big cheese of all fashion weeks!). Now, I'm one of these people who isn't a fan of planning out the fine details of outfits beforehand. I much prefer just chaotically raiding my wardrobes in the morning in search of something that suits my mood and where I'm going. However, with a very limited amount of space for packing (and slight concern that the Eurostar staff will hurl my precious clothes onto the platform if I take more than a measly suitcase), I've decided to put together an ultimate guide of essentials to help you out with packing for fashion week to avoid ending up with a room looking like a bomb just hit it piled up with possible outfit choices. 

1) Blazers- tailored chic that adds an extra layer and allows any feminine look to be toughened up 

2) Jumpsuits- simple all-in-ones mean you can still have the wow-factor without needing to worry about throwing together a top and bottoms 

3) Leather- try a high-waisted leather skirt (there are some amazing camel ones around at the mo) or leather skinnies 

4) Fur coats- leopard print is so this season and fur is definitely necessary to keep you toasty warm in the winter months

5) Wedges- oh the challenge of stumbling across the cobbles of Somerset House in stiletto heels; I seriously advise you to invest in height without the pain 

6) Statement necklaces-  it's fashion week so you need to make a statement and be noticed, right? 

7) Tailored trousers- timeless look which can just be paired with a simple loose tee 

8) Maxi skirts- there are days when we just don't feel like showing off our legs, so a flowy cute print is perfect for this

9) Aviator jackets- leather and fur allows you to kill two birds in one stone in terms of trends 

10) Oversized clutches- enough room to carry everything you could possibly need! 

11) Cat-eye shades- who cares if it's not sunny, it's fashion week 

12) Lace, lace, lace- ladylike and versatile enough to be mixed and matched with literally everything.
