Autumn/ Winter Trends 2008
March 19, 2008

Autumn Winter 2008 brings many new styles and colours to hollypoppins.com.au!

The cooler weather calls for luxurious textures like crocodile print and vibrant rich colours such as red and yam. What is Yam I hear you say?! Yam is the newest 'it' colour for 2008. Also referred to as Freesia this golden yellow is a new addition to the 2008 fashion palette. It joins fabulous metallic, deep forest greens, rich reds and neutrals such as coffees, tans and blacks.  

This Autum Winter Accessories frequently have the look of rare animal skins but the most important change is that classic handbags are back in fashion. 

The fact that a frame handbag must be carried by hand or overarm like a fifties starlet, creates a new look in itself. The Sez handbag in Yam (below) is Holly Poppins pick for the season with the large tubulour straps perfect for the overarm look and the golden yellow the trend colour for the year.

In the world of fashion accessories, it's clear that the 'it' bag has lost the importance it had a couple of years ago. The designer bags with large logos and logo'd prints give way to unique bags that hint to your personality.

This season a wide range of fashionable bag shapes are available and whatever the shape you select, one thing stays the same - a new handbag can breathe new life into last winter's wardrobe!
