After long preparations and busy times the Sydney Fashion Weekend 2012 has now sadly come to an end. But we thought we’d share a few highlighted moments from the weekend with our readers and social followers that couldn’t be there to celebrate the event with us. (more…)

We are currently experiencing the age of costume jewellery mania. Real gold and silver are left for the extra special occasions, and dinners and nights on the town are usually left to the costume jewellery. This benefits us all really, as it is SO much cheaper!! Not only that, but costume jewellery also makes an outfit. Like these beautiful bright Zoda necklaces do (below) with a plain top or dress! So next time you have nothing new to wear, instead of spending hundreds on a new dress, try buying a new piece of costume jewellery to pair with something you already own instead! Lulu has plenty of beautiful, unique pieces of jewellery to choose from so you know where to look!

Zoda Necklace in Lime Green, Tangerine & Stone $51 (matching earrings also available)

We can no longer deny the cold. Its here, and its here to stay. One of the best ways to welcome the winter weather is to have a beautiful knit, coat or jacket ready in the wardrobe just waiting to be worn! With all our fabulous garments with unique fabrics and styles, you’re bound to find a winter piece that you will instantly fall in love with. Our pick of the week is the Honey and Beau ‘All Wrapped Up Poncho’ which is perfect paired with straight black pants or jeans and a wedged boot. You can even add a short necklace for a more evening look!

Every Autumn/Winter, Lulu makes sure she has a pair of classic ballets in her shoe collection as they really are the easiest shoe to slip on! Not only that but they do look great with almost anything – stockings, jeans, leggings, it goes on. (For all of you who didn’t already know, the clever Lulu designs ALL of our shoes here at Lulu Loves Paris!) And whilst Lulu is usually inclined to have one or two styles of ballets, usually in black, this year she went colour crazy! Available in Turquoise, Lavender, Navy, Midnight Black, Black & Cream, Silver and Ruby Red!

Lulu Ballets $120
Available in store and online! (only Turquoise and Lavender online)

Proving to be a massive hit this Autumn/Winter are loafer shoes and ‘mannish’ style shoes. What we love about them is they keep on trend with their classic shape, however the different styles add feminine chic.

Right here in Manly you can attain catwalk style with these beautiful leopard loafers designed by Lulu herself! Made with 100% leather and fit with studs on the side, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better pair of loafers in Sydney!

Leopard Loafer $160
Available in store and online

This winter is really all about leather, but its not restricted to the staple leather jacket like previous seasons. Leather is coming in everything! Leather dresses, leather coats and even better, different coloured leather.

Lulu has jumped on the leather bandwagon and has many beautiful leather pieces in store to choose from, including leather look pieces for a cheaper option.

A crisp collar peeping out of a knitted jumper is a must-have Autumn look for your wardrobe.  Collared shirts are a big hit this Autumn/Winter meaning they must not be left only for the corporate world – we can look this classy whenever we want! A day spent shopping will suffice.

Here we’ve paired the collar/jumper look with a plain black pencil skirt and these beautiful suede wedged boots. A bright bag doesn’t go afar to add some colour – and tangerine is still in trend for autumn too!

Have you ever wondered why Chanel is a timeless brand that never goes out of style?

Well after watching this video we had a whole new appreciation for the personal time and care that goes into making these timeless and unique fashion pieces. No wonder a Chanel ‘little black jacket’ fits like a glove and feels sooo special!!

Have we inspired you to look as elegant? We carry only one size of most garments in store to give you the unique pieces that makes others envious

After much anticipation, we can now announce that the winner of our handbag competition was a lovely local lady named Lisa McDonald! A self confessed Lulu regular from the days when we resided on Pittwater Rd, so we were more than happy to hand the handbag over! The lucky winner came to receive her prize at lunch time today and had a little wander around before she even told us who she was. But Lisa was definitely not one to grab her prize and run, and instead had a long chat with the Lulu girls and also found a new outfit along the way! (Pictured below). Thank you to everyone who entered our first official competition!

The fashion icon was definitely onto something when she picked that little black dress as her staple piece! It is just so handy! Just landed in store is this black shift dress from Jimmy Jean and we can’t get enough it for that very reason.
In summer, winter, or this up and down season we call autumn, it can be worn. In the day, at night, for occasions going from day to night, it can be worn. Its clean lines make it an outfit in itself with the need to add very little, perhaps just a small wedge and a necklace for an evening look. But it can also double as the perfect layering piece with room to add your own style.

Here we have gone for a dressy/casual look by pairing it with a patterned long sleeve and a gold necklace to offset the black with a bit of colour!
