Nicky's Rag Tales

Wardrobe Staples No. 2 by nickysragtales featuring Burberry

Wardrobe Staples are having a ‘fashion moment’ or more realistic a fashion endorsement. I said I would write about those pieces that I never used to get pleasure buying but are the ‘must have’ anchor pieces in every woman’s working wardrobe. This present season is one where the world of fashion is having an attack of inertia. The world economic downturn has everyone including the fashion world running for cover ( or should I say Trench coat) and it’s not entirely bad news. It is time to take care of the basics, to spend our money on good quality timeless pieces and no better place to start than with a classic Trench coat. This is not the time to buy a cheap copy, if you are going to invest in a Trench then I would go no further than a Burberry whose name is like Biro is to pen. After all you are going to wear it and wear it and wear it again and again and again……..

The Catwalk for Spring Summer 2010 was a Trench affair

The Burberry Prorsum Menswear Fall 20100-2011 was streamed live from Milan yesterday, a commercial collection paying homage to the great coat, of which Burberry is king. Military history was evident throughout with trenches, pea coats and exaggerated collared bombers all teamed with one neat trouser tucked into rubber fur lined wellies (New Uggsfor men?) and military style boots. The accompanying music is great too.
