It's beginning to feel Autumnal and I'm looking forward to mellow mists, darkness and mystery.
On the beauty counters, new makeup reflects the mood. Autumn makeup is mysterious ....

On the fashion front, PUNK has a dark, sophisticated edge and GRUNGE has acquired a glamour (it inspired the Saint Laurent Autumn/Winter collection and the September edition of Vogue Paris).
Black leather, gold studs and chains, biker boots, tartan, denim, khaki, classic jumpers (often over-sized) now mix with romantic lace dresses and skirts, slip dresses and camisoles that look like lingerie (as at Louis Vuitton). There's a lot of Black and white Houndstooth pattern about (very Dior) and Leopard print (most chic, I think, as an accessory). Other trends are boyish (street style or preppy) and for the less rebellious, there's a ladylike, 1950's style (like a Hitchcock leading lady).
I've begun to get in the mood with a few small things...
