Naturally Peter Pan

Flustered, still, from the heavy summer sun I now turn my gaze in the direction of the Fall/Winter collections that graced our catwalks once again. The collections were inspiriational and to engage you in all of them would take me longer than a mere blog entry.

So, as always I have chosen a single look that I favoured the most. Familiar to those that recall the story from their childhood and recognisable by those that know of the 1904 play by J.M. Barrie - the origin of the 'Peter Pan Collar.'

Have I sparked your interest? Below are some of my favourite pieces:

Most of my favourites are from ASOS (once again it wasn't hard for me to rely on the chain). This includes the 'River Island Peter Pan Collar Shift Dress' for £29.99.

They also recently released some Peter Pan Collar coats, which (shame on me) I didn't even know existed.

DKNY Dress

If you don't think the dress is for you then try the 'ASOS Lace Peter Pan Collar Blouse' for
£25.00. Personally I would team this chic blouse with some jeans and a pair of on-style brogues for an all-round Alexa Chung look but it can work just as well with a skirt and some heels.


Then again, there is no need to buy a whole new outfit. The 'ASOS Leather Peter Pan Collars' starting at £15.00 are a great investment which are easily attached to your favourite top or dress and voila... you're ready to go!

Jaeger Blouse

Find all of the above at www.asos.com.

Love designer? Try the DKNY Black Collared Dress, £300, at www.stylebop.com.

The 'Boutique by Jaeger Peter Pan Collar Blouse,' £150, is in my opinion not a bargain but one should see it as a classic investment. What with the British weather, an outfit that can be worn during summer all the way through to winter is desirable.
