What to wear this season


Statement Sneakers



There is always going to be a stand out piece for every season, saying that can even be throughout a year, think of the hype the Chloe Nile bag caused. Sold out everywhere! But thinking about the practicality of things, how much use do you really get out of those statement pieces that you've invested so much in?


It's time to be thankful that the humble sneaker is set to be the piece this season. With all sorts of designs, with intricate embroidery to studding and graffiti, there are so many style to choose from, you can really make the piece personal to you. By that we mean choosing which goes best with your style. If your casual verges on the more smart side, perhaps go for something simple but with a little more sparkle, but if you are a bit out there, perhaps a graffitied up pair of kicks is the one to go for.


We have selected some of out favourites for you to browse, and highly recommend investing in a pair this year. They go with pretty much everything, and are super comfortable, so you will 100% get the wear out of them. and they look pretty too, did we mention that?

Trend Talk: Statement Boots

Trend Talk: Statement Boots

Statement boots




Designers are loving the statement boot at the moment. With all the different variations, one thing is clear this season; boots are very in.

With the over-the-knee still going strong, probably because of how practical they are for this time of year, new textures, heels and shapes have been added. A very popular thing to do it to scrunch down your over the knee boots. Bloggers and all the fashanistas seem to be doing this at the moment.

Adding to the over-the-knee, we have a sudden surge of biker boots appearing. We love how Chanel have bought this tough trend into a more girly sphere of dressing with the pearls and other embellishment. Then we have the heel of the boot itself, you can make a statement with that too.

Below we have curated three outfits, each with a different "statement boot". As usual we have started off with a casual, to a more dressy ensemble, to a layering outfit, perfect for the weather.

Biker Boots

We LOVE these Valentino boots with the cut out and lacing. Pair with a simple pair of black jeans and white T for a super cool off duty look. Throw on a bang on trend aviator jacket to stay nice and toasty in the winter months.





Let the heels do the talking

We are a big fan of keeping things elegant and simple, with a slight edge to it. Therefore this next outfit makes perfect sense to us. We have gone for all black, including the stunning 'YSL' heeled boots and tux jacket to keep a modern feel, but still a timeless look. We would just add a simple black mini dress under the jacket to make sure the jacket and the boots are the pieces doing the talking. Or the walking.





Knee High

How could we not throw in a knee high statement boot. Despite it being the obvious choice for this season, we suggest wearing them in a different way. Roll those babies down! We love the simple blue colour of the boots we have selected and like the idea of rolling them down with a long knitted midi dress layered over the top just letting them show through. Add in a long cardigan and coat over the top for that extra warmth.

Premium High Street Footwear retailer Dune, have been seriously bringing their A-game recently, with some amazing 'inspired' pieces (you'll see what we mean in our little product edit). But with that being said, they are also killing it in the boots department too. I'm sure all of you are probably beginning to get your good old winter boots out at this point in the year and deciding whether they need to be updated or not. So why not take some inspiration from our edit, and have a browse at Dune, to make sure you can find the perfect, quality, but not ridiculously expensive, pair of winter boots this season.

David Koma


Spring/Summer Collection 2018 - London Fashion Week




Koma’s athletic style collection is nod of appreciation to MMA star Conor McGregor.

The entire collection is an ode to boxing- witness the extensive use of leather which hints at boxing gloves, the pop colour tracksuits as well as the lace up heeled trainers. However, Koma retains the fashion edge through the sculptural factor such as of tailored tracksuits with suggestive poppers trailing up the leg, figure hugging dresses and dynamic frills, inspired by as Koma's very own Kerry Vesper sculpture.



Koma is essentially flirting with sport style and as a result it provides his pieces with an attitude – an empowerment of female strength. He creates a hybrid of sports couture through dynamic cuts crossed with femininity as seen in the lace trousers, the sheer pinstripe patterns and generous dash of flesh. The result is sexy.



Pinstripe and leather are the signature design and material of the pieces as it conveys a strength but also a sex appeal. The leather boxing shorts with frills, hooded lace boxing robe  and exposing sports jersey dresses fastened with sparkling beads all amalgamate into a sophisticated collection that whispers- not screams, too cool for that- effortless casual sophistication.



 It is what we would imagine Gigi Hadid to throw on before rushing to a Gala Ball after a late night gym session. Who wouldn’t want to look like that?

Spring Summer 2018 Collection - London Fashion Week



Inspired by  Mary Barker’s "Flower Fairies", one of Webster's favourite books, the new SS18 collection is something straight out of a fairy tale.


At London Fashion Week, Sophia Webster presented her latest collection of shoes and handbags, set amongst backdrops of fairy tale gardens. The overall inspiration for the collection was the Flower Fairies, which is evident in the quirky slogans on bag designs and the set itself. (We Love the one above!)


Also, we can totally imagine disney princesses wearing the shoes of the collection to their balls. Just don't do a cinderella and loose one! We also love how slogans are kind of updated to provide something that a modern day 'fairy princess' would wear, for instance the "Chick Flix and Frills" clutch (below). This is kind of what we'd imagine the princess version of Netflix and chill to be.



So if you are looking for some statement and fairy princess accessories, look no further than Sophia Webster. We have selected some of our favourite pieces below that are available to shop now.
