Bold Buttons
Wednesday, 10 November 2010 by Ashley Turowsky
This season buttons are back! Buttons have taken the limelight back from the traditional zipper. This trend was seen all over the A/W 10 catwalk, from double-breasted Oscar de la Renta, military Burberry, and oversized Louis Vuitton.
Look for brass buttons worth a salute. Choose navy or red, and keep it simple with a single oversized button placed beneath the collar. Burberry Prorsum's indigo wool-blend fisherman coat with gold button fastening is a luxurious way to work the season's button trend. Recreate the runway look with thigh-high boots and black accessories for a contemporary color combination.
Try ALICE by Temperley's navy silk dress is an ultra-feminine way to work this season's military trend. Match your accessories to the gold-tone buttons and simply add ankle boots and a tote for stylish weekends in the city.
Want buttons elsewhere? Try the sides of trousers, or even a pair of boots. Try these Christian Louboutin buttoned boots. The brown leather buttoned knee-high boots are the chicest way to work this season's military trend. Or incorporate a bolt of blue into your wardrobe with Christian Louboutin's navy wool-flannel buttoned boots. Pair these military-inspired heels with skinny pants and a crisp white shirt for a super-chic workwear ensemble.
