If you're talking proper fashion then buy some magazines like Vogue, Elle etc. IMO you're better off getting advice about your shape and what will suit you and buy some classics!

This was a really good thread for February - good for ideas:

I've asked the OP to start one for March!

As for what's in, pastels are big!

Sorry, forgot to click links box:

oh and bomber jackets are in too - I got this one on Saturday and it's really nice. Will wear it with pencil skirts and heels for work, or dressed down with turned up skinnies at the weekend (boyfriend jeans drown me).

I couldn't wear this colour but Zara have nailed three trends in one here - pastels, lace and a bomber jacket style:

I saw a page in Marie Claire about pastel nails (baby blue, mint green, candyfloss pink). So looks like pastels are indeed in for Spring.

Joan Collins just said so on QVC Smile
