Runway to Realway: Ann Demeulemeester
Headed by the likes of Ann Demeulemeester, Rick Owens and Meadham Kirchoff, the glam grunge look has had a cult following that is not going away anytime soon. The anti-trend mixes black deconstructed clothes with leather accessories for a tough directional style. For SS09, Demeulemeester took inspiration from a caged bird, with delicate chains hanging from the models' faces. Floor-length black skirts and dresses were teamed with leather waistcoats and tailored cut-out jackets.
This trend is all about street style, so it comes as no surprise that we found many a doting Demeulemeester fan channelling the look. The zebra wedge boots and tartan bag add a personal touch, whilst the black maxi-dress and leather jacket are classic glam grunge. Sheer fabrics and cut out detailing will take this through to summer, but until then layer up that leather.

Runway to Realway: Chloe
Chloe S/S10 brought us back to basics. Although, some die hard Chloe fans were left wanting more when only a few floaty numbers filed out at the end, after all this is what the brand is loved for. With the last collection oozing glamour and dripping with diamontes, this season was all about the cut and the signature Hannah MacGibbon masculine tailoring. Teaming oversized blazers with high-waisted pants, the show was easy chic at its best bringing an easy sensibility straight to your summer wardrobe.
Spotted at Fashion Week, this trend-setter showed everyone how to do the Chloe look perfectly, nipping the pants in at the waist with a super skinny belt and rolling the hems up for the ultimate Parisian vibe. For a fresh contrast against the slouchy tailoring, team with ultra flat gladiators this spring, we know your feet will thank you.

Runway to Realway: Marc by Marc Jacobs
Each season Marc Jacobs' shows are the hottest ticket in town. Spring/Summer2010 was no exception. His younger more playful and dare we say cooler line, Marc by Marc Jacobs, did not disappoint. Bursting with vibrant patterns, clashing neons and all-wrapped-up in pretty bows, what more could any girl want. The main trend that will be ruling your wardrobes come spring time is the tribal print. From jodphur pants and graphic tees, to 40s skirts and all-in-ones, wear African-inspired pattern from head to toe.
Described as a nod to 80s youth culture, this trend is already making an impact on street style. We spotted this trendy Londoner at London Fashion Week wearing a denim jacket over a patterned play-suit, bearing a striking resemblance to the Marc by Marc Jacobs vision seen only a week before at New York Fashion Week. The little black boots make the outfit work all the way into winter, so maybe you won't have to wait until summer after all.

Now that the summer months are in arms' reach and you are beginning to plan your summer getaway, it's now the time to start thinking about your sunglasses.
This year we are spoilt for choice. High-end brands and the high street are both serving us with a variety of styles, from aviators to the Jackie O-inspired, oversized LA look.
But shopping for your shades this summer need not break the bank. H&M, Forever 21 and ASOS have a selection of styles similar to the big brands but at a fraction of the price.

Giles Deacon's Swimwear Line Hits Stores
The past few months have really horrible for Giles Deacon. I mean, who would want to lounge around exclusive pools in L.A. observing beautiful women and end the day calling that a hard day's work? Well that's exactly what lucky Deacon has been up to recently, as he prepared for the launch of his new swimwear line at New Look, which launches today.
"It was all designed while on a research trip to Los Angeles - by the pool at the Chateau Marmont," Deacon told Vogue.com. "For me it's not so much Eighties-inspired but more a mix of clean lines and graphic boldness with a touch of playfulness."
What do you think about Deacon's swimsuit?

Swimsuit Season: The Time Is Nigh
Or it's already here. While Naomi holds down the fort, I'm on holiday in Dubrovnik, thanking Mother Nature for creating climates more appealing than the one in the UK. Translation: It's nice to see the sun again, especially when the sun is shining on a beautiful beach.
Which brings us to an ever-important question that always comes up this time of year. Have you picked your swimsuit? We've selected some of our favourites to build you up for beach time.
