Autumn is in full swing and London Fashion Week is now behind us. 

Autumn is in full swing and London Fashion Week is now behind us. The vibrant colours, trends and accessories of the SS15 collections were to die for but now we need to look to autumn fashion and beauty trends, skin tricks and products to look and feel just as good as we did in the summer sun.

Here's my top ten beauty and fashion must haves and news for October:

 

Lavazza coffee

Lavazza is one of the official LFW sponsors and has been for over 12 years. If you're a busy fashion-loving lovely and work frantic hours there's nothing better than a fab Italian coffee and if its good enough for LFW its good enough for me. This season the brand has also collaborated with designer Holly Fulton. For those of you who prefer decaf it also has a fabulous decaf so while you get the smell and taste of the finest Italian coffee you can benefit from your choice of regular or decaf. RRP is £3.50.

Topman exclusive

Fashion label American Freshman has collaborated with the founder of online youth broadcaster SB.TV Jamal Edwards on a line of hats, available exclusively at Topman from October 9. The collection includes three baseball caps and two reversible buckets hats in colourful prints such as animal, check and camouflage as well as plain classic styles.

Glo & Ray's mousse eye-shadow

With the key beauty trends focusing on simplicity this AW season, make your eyes the focal point with a dash of colour just under the lower lash line.

Try Glo & Ray's Mirage Mousse Eye Shadow in Egypian Ocean 456 for ultimate rockstar glam.  This revolutionary multi silky-wax complex provides a seamlessly silky texture.
