Tomorrow I will be posting more of our Fall 2010 Taste Testers!!
So recently although its only August, I’ve noticed a slight decline on the
weather front which in my mind means end of summer,'i know, i know it’s over to
quickly' BUT, on a more positive note, change of weather means some new items for
my wardrobe must be purchased (don’t you just love how I see the good in
everything, lol ).
For today’s post I am going to break down Autumn /Winter 2010
absolute must haves.
To give you a kick start, this season it’s all about
browns, tan, black, leathers, trousers, cut out clothing and even
socks.
Now you know it’s our job to keep you on trend so we at CD have
studied the catwalk and researched the best buys from the high for you the
reader, so please kick back take a sip and enjoy.
Item one, the jacket's of the season.
The tan aviator leather jacket *CDs personal fav*can be found at www.asos.com and retails at £110 it also come's in chocolate, and the cape can be found at American Apparel retailing at £54 and also comes in navy and red.
Item two, Trousers
The black draw string joggers can be found at Topshop retailing at £38 (and they look gorge with trainers, flats or with a fierce pair of stilettos). The sand peg trousers can be found at Dorothy Perkins retailing at £28 and also come in khaki and black
Item three, leather shorts

Item five, the sexiest tights and socks for those chilly nights
The white rib socks retail at £4 and the cut out socks retail at £8 and can both be found at www.asos.com' I'm soooooo in love with the cut out socks I've already purchased a pair, when it comes to fashion take chances and if its good enough for Rihanna its good enough for me and my fabulous CD readers.
The tights start at £6 and come from a selection created by Henry Holland for Pretty Polly. I featured him a few months back and his bought out some new styles for A/W 2010 so be sure to get a pair. Its one of the cheapest designer items out there and tights can make a outfit look sexy (remember I told you).

I have been a fan of Jada Pinkett back when she was Lena from A Different World, but since she has become The Black Hollywood Power Couple with Will Smith, well let's just say....money has been treating her good because her style is impeccable!
I've been keeping a close eye on Jada for the past couple of weeks as she's been touring throughout Europe with her family for her son's (cutie Jaden Smith) Karate Kid promo's.
She has been killing the red carpet!! How cruel would it be for me not to share and how we can cop her look the Champagne Dreams Way.....
Jada rocked a one shoulder gold sequin mini dress paired with nude pumps.
I found a sexy gold sequin mini w/ open back from Asos for only $67.38!
I'm sure you're used to me switching up the looks a bit. I paired the gold mini with these hot Steve Madden snakeskin & gold platforms from Endless for $89.95!
