Paris Fashion Week AW 2012/13....Natalie

Natalie Hartley, Senior Fashion Editor InStyle magazine (UK), after Chanel, Paris, March 2012.

Love the pop of colour in Natalie's outfit - the fuchsia lace skirt is a beautiful contrast against her black sweater, tights and heavy combat boots.

Recreate Natalie's look (kind of):

Don't be tempted to wear all black when the weather turns cold and rainy - add a splosh of colour with a bright skirt:

Jil Sander pleated fuchsia skirt, ASOS hot pink lace midi skirt (you could shorten this skirt to make it knee length like Natalie's), Milly Racquelle flared skirt or Halston Heritage Bell skirt with pockets

Thakoon leather trim sweater, Joseph leather elbow-patch sweater or ASOS pocket sweater (in black)

Alexander Wang Daria high combat boots, Tory Burch Toby combat boots, Burberry boots or River Island Surley military boots

Paris Fashion Week AW 2012....Natalie

Natalie Hartley, before A Show, Paris, March 2012.

These Rag & Bone pants are (one) of my favourites of the season - and Natalie rocked them in Paris. They have a serious leg-lengthening effect (clearly to do with the tuxedo stripe running down the side). And worn with a pair of platform heels? You've got Nadja Auermann in your sights. Err, sort of.

Recreate Natalie's Look (kind of):

Rag & Bone Dwight trousers or Derek Lam trousers with glossy black racing stripe (move aside Mark Webber, we're comin' at you!) or go a little wider for high summer with these M Missoni Colourblock wide leg pants.

Paris Fashion Week AW 2012...Natalie

Natalie Hartley, Senior Fashion Editor InStyle magazine (UK) and editor of Natalie Hartley Wears blog, Paris, March 2012.

Recreate Natalie's Look (kind of):

ASOS grey marl boyfriend t-shirt or T by Alexander Wang classic t-shirt

MM6 by Maison Martin Margiela grey washed leather jacket or All Saints Marsh leather biker jacket (in pale powder blue for spring/summer)

Levi's cropped boyfriend jeans

Add a pop of colour with some open-toed booties for summer -  Camilla Skovgaard purple stiletto booties or Maison Martin Margiela open-toed bootie in lavender (Natalie's boots are Michel Perry).
