VANS Van Doren Collection for AW12

CARHARTT AW12: Brand Book Launch Party

The ultimate coffee table bible landed in the UK this month with with Carhartt launching their hugely renowned brand book for the AW12 season. I headed to the launch party in Shoreditch to check out the hype and get a sneak peak of the new collection...

Guests piled into the brand's flagship store to get their hands on the hefty brand book before general release (and to grab a beer or two...). Just like the wood and brick store, the rustic, autumnal quality of the brand book reflects the true nature and colour palette of the brand's AW collection, with standout pieces across outerwear, trousers, shirts and chunky knits. I also loved the way they styled the girls with the guys clothes, effortlessly androgynous as quality streetwear should be.

October Is For: ONE GWEN STEFANI

My personal number one girl crush seems to be Autumn's flavour of the month too (ahem nothing to do with the return of No Doubt, I'm sure) with a mesmerising selection of cover shoots for some of the most prestigious glossies out. 

Here's Gwen Stefani's impressive media haunts for this month, drool... DAMN we're glad she's back!

P.S. if you're yet to hear No Doubt's new single 'Push and Shove'(ft. Busy Signal and Major Lazer) check it now. You'll wake up singing it for days, and for all the right reasons (- fear not it's no Swagger Jagger).
