The autumn/winter '08 collections are in store now so I went to take a quick look after work today. Catwalk collections are often entirely brought into boutiques in Milan so browsing is a lot of fun.

Winter wool coats - no matter what length - have narrow shoulders, comfortable sleeves and are A-lined. I found this doll-like silhouette across many brands so this is definitely something to get for autumn/winter this year. Colours don't have to be all greys and blacks. A creamy orange or a classic sandy beige would be a good choice too.

I'm excited about Diesel's new collection. The luxurious Black Gold label debuted with a refined style and less industrial feel. I tried on the "Tubik" skirt from the regular collection:


It's knee-length, has a zipper on the right side and a high slit at the back. I don't know what happened, but I really lost some weight during summer and can't seem to "fill" jeans and skirts like I used to...

I was wondering about it too, because I never saw news of this collection on Specktra. But after looking at it online I realised its actually a collection of permanent items that has been put together on the site to promote them - so don't worry these are already released, permanent items :)
