Your preview of River Islands Autumn/Winter 2012 Collection

By Elaine Scully Styling

I drove up to the big smoke this morning for a preview of River Islands Autumn/Winter 2012 Collection. Iphone in hand every snap I took was another pretend purchase for my Autumn year-round-wardrobe. Accessories play a key role in RI's collection for next season. My absolute favourites were; the body jewellery, all the ultra statement earrings and the cross neckpiece (each of these are shown below). Guys, may I present to you the contents of my 'wish I could' shopping bag.....

Love each and every one of my fake purchases!! Who knows maybe once they land instore they could become a very real part of my wardrobe. And now for some outfit inspiration and to do this I have put together a few of my favourite looks from River Islands Lookbook. Enjoy :)
