5 Fashion pieces to keep in 2012

We're jumped into 2012's trends faster than we can belt out the last drunken verse of Auld Lang Syne. But rather than buy everything anew, there's plenty from fall that can carry over. 

Here are 5 key pieces that will continue to serve you into spring.

 

1. The wide leg pant.

  To dress it up you can add wedges or high heeled sandals.

 

 

 

  2. The Tuxedo Jacket

 

An easy option for heading out after hours, it’s is a classic that goes well beyond the 2011 season.

 

 

3. The Leather Harness

It can be fetishist and hard, but it doesn’t have to be. For spring layer your leather accessories over floating fabrics, light colours and relaxed tailoring.

 

 

 

 4. The High Slit Dress

 

While the runways for both seasons have seen plenty of evening wear takes, you can also work a casual slit into your wardrobe come spring. Pair a slit skirt with a cotton tank for an effortless summer take. 

5. The 60's Peter Pan collar

 

A sweet sixties look is still lifted by the addition of a round peter pan collar.
