We always have an eye on the next big trend and where better to update our ideas than New York Fashion Week? Here we update you with a few of this season's key looks to inspire your wardrobe.
Number One: Uniform and lots of lovely blouses. Combine your stripes and checks and get that street style that was all over the catwalks in New York

Number Two: Metallics
We have discovered our new favourite designer who is definitely in love with her tartan and her sense of fun and quirky hats top off the outfits perfectly. Kate Spade took 2 top trends, metallics and checks, and combined them to great effect.

Number Three: Monochrome
Black and white seems to always be on trend (although this season we hear navy is the new black) and the runways of Thom Browne, Donna Karan and others combined classic crisp white shirts and starched collars with sharp skirts and cut outs.

The ScotlandShop take on monochrome using the
Kirkton Black and White tweed check

Number Four: Pinstripes
Kenneth Cole combines black and red and pinstripes and checks

Number Five: Checks
Be it dark and demure checks from Polo Ralph Lauren or shabby-chic from Creatures of the Wind or mix 'n match style from 3.1 Phillip Lim

Oh and just a little bit more of Kate Spade now have fallen in love with her chequered style!
