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
