Fashion forecast for 2008

What to keep

Blazers
Thank you Nicholas Ghesquiere for bringing the multitasking blazer back into our lives. This wonderful jacket can pull together any outfit; it sharpens the romantic trend, works well over seventies clobber and helps make block colour less of a scary proposition. Perfect.

Safari
OK, so safari being hot for summer is about as surprising as seeing Victoria Beckham on the cover of Grazia, but there's a reason why this classic trend never dies. Brought to us over thirty years ago by the fabulously talented Yves Saint Laurent, a khaki belted jacket always looks good. Go for 'Out of Africa'glam with an armful of wooden bangles and an animal print scarf.

High waist trousers
Oh how we've grown to love our snug high-waisters, surprisingly flattering across the midriff and super-stylish with a chiffon blouse and waistcoat, they bring a hint of Golden Age glamour in to our lives. For high summer, team with a nautical stripe t-shirt, plimsolls and a single row of beads. Riviera chic is guaranteed to be a surefire hit.
