TARTAN, hound’s tooth and Prince of Wales checks abounded on the autumn/winter 2011-12 catwalks – with plaid usurping denim as the new key fabric to double up on in your wardrobe.

FROM deckchairs to beach balls, the quintessential British beach holiday has always been a stripey affair but, this spring/summer 2011, these classic stripes also provide a fantastic springboard for your seaside wardrobe.  From Sonia Rykiel to Marc by Marc Jacobs, this summer’s nautical-inspired bikinis were given fresh energy in bright orange or yellow hoops, while cover ups were also given a lift in this bold pattern.

Louboutin’s lawsuit against YSL for creating a red shoe with a red sole is ongoing, but it sounds like the designer’s issues with copycats stem far deeper than we had originally thought.
