FOXXY FASHION TIPS
When it comes to celebrating winter style, British designer label Timothy Foxx have fashion all
sewn up with their gorgeous collection of country tweed pieces. In this feature, Timothy Foxx’s
designer Rosalie Eustace, gives her top tips on ‘what’s hot and what’s not’ for autumn.
We always stick to our country roots without losing our
focus on fashion trends, but just like we do – try not to
be a slave to them! Only ever pick out those trends each
season that suit you. This winter for example military is
a key story on the catwalk, so we have taken hints of this
and introduced this through braiding and polished chrome
buttons to give a strong fashion feel to some of our jackets.
If you like a fashion trend, pick elements rather than
copying it head to toe –this way you will look chic not silly!
Equestrian inspired fashion is also back on track for this
season, so why not team your leather riding boots (cleaned
of course!!) with a pair of great jeans, statement scarf,
t-shirt and jacket for a look that wouldn’t look out of place
in Paris or Portsmouth this winter!
Also you may have heard fashionistas talking a lot about
‘investment buying’? This is the big trend in shopping
habits, whereby people are tending to save up for those
signature pieces or investing in just one key item, which
will make an impact to their wardrobe, be it their work or
play wardrobes. Stylists do this a lot; they buy one key item
and work their wardrobe around it with cheaper items
from the high street – makes sense!
Personally we
love tweed (Of
course!) and we
love mixing it
up with some
urban styling.
Wearing a hoodie
underneath a
single-breasted
tweed jacket
really works, as
well as keeping
you nice and
toasty on those
cold winter days!
Or a polo shirt
teamed with a
pair of skinny
jeans, heels
and lashing of
jewellery gives
you instant
glamour!
This summer, hot pants were a key trend
both on the high street and catwalk and ours
proved very popular, including our versions
with a vintage inspired Union Jack printed
fabric bottom! Just because winter has
arrived, it doesn’t mean that you can’t wear
them anymore – simply team up with a thick
denier pair of tights and some chunky flat
boots and you have rock chick without feeling
the cold!
Same goes for our cute flirty mini-skirts, we
sell great cable knit over the knee socks which
look great again worn with knee high boots
and tights. The key this winter is layering,
so go for a long sleeve top underneath your
polo shirt and enjoy wearing your summer
favourites all year around!
