I haven’t shopped online for a long while and a few days ago I found my self on asos.com browsing when I discovered for the first time that they are now stocking River Island. What a huge step this is for them as asos is pretty much dominating the online fashion retail market, River Island have changed and grown over the past couple of years that it’s quite scary! More info after the cut.

Fashion brand All Saints have launched their AW 2010 collection. Made with upgraded fits, fabric and finishes; left-hand twills and carbonised clay-dyed are treated, pigment sprayed and hand finished individually. The AW10 collection features the following fits: IGGY – CIGARETTE – LYNVALL – SHORT KICK – RUNNER – GUN. If you’re not a regular All Saints shopper these names might not mean anything to you so after the cut, you can view a video that explains all including an explanation of the denim process.

Filippa K is a Swedish brand, one that I’m quite fond of but cant afford! They’ve launched their AW10 collection and after the cut you’ll see some photos and a video as promo for this seasons campaign. The new collection is supposed to embody the brands ethos which is classic & simple. I get just that from the menswear batch where you’ll find the perfect sophisticated casual/smart looks whether you want chunky knits or tweed/velvet blazers. Check out the their website.

Ever wanted to know what it’s like on the streets of ParisAdidas have created a short video using stop motion animation where we are taken to the streets of Paris. The clip serves a promotional purpose in the run up to the Adidas Originals AW10 Footwear launch. I love this video it’s really cool, the concept is on point- I think there is a crucial link between the shoes and where clip has been filmed i.e the colourful backgrounds and graffiti walls it’s all very creative! Read on to watch the video and also keep an eye out for these sneakers as they’re coming soon.

I am quite impressed with Dior Homme’s bag collection this season, its just good to look at.. What I like about this collection is that it’s very simple yet stylish however slightly out ones price range. Even though I prefer the black, I can see how people would go for the red. It looks quite sophisticated where the colour is rich and the leather is of finest in quality and of course it’s very different, I don’t ever recall seeing a dude with a red wallet #imjustsayin. The collection is made up of various shoulder bags and accessories such as blackberry cases, laptop cases and wallets. More photos after the jump.

I’ve become more and more into All Saints very season, I wasn’t a fan a few years ago because it all looked too Gothic for me, but they’ve managed to win me over. So  they’ve continued steering away from the typical drapey look in this lookbook and again I really like these looks. Very casual/smart ensembles well suited to our sudden but expected shift in weather. I find the looks are also really simple, there isn’t too much going on or too many layers and personally I like to dress quite simple so these are looks that I would go for. You can find all of these garments on the website, more photos after the cut..

Versatile Adidas brand: Adidas SLVR, bring us a closer look at the a/w 2010 collection of footwear. Based on these photos, the collection depicts a variety of hi and low tops, all different shapes, which I think is very rare in a lot of sneaker collections. They’ve also used quite a few bright colours but we are also seeing some black and a dark red. I am liking this collection because of its diversity, they are available as of now in Adidas stores so get moving if you want a pair!
