Normcore, a term coined very recently, describes a trend that would rather not be seen as a trend. In a world of over-the-top fashion, normcore creates a different statement in the sense that less is more. The more "normal" something is now, the more it stands out among the self-titled "unique" trends of this time. Almost a revival of the 1990's, normcore involves a collaboration of the mom/dad jean, corduroy, trainers, and a sense of style that embraces "sameness."

Grocery shopping has never been so chic! Chanel presented their Autumn/Winter ready- to -wear collection at PFW, exciting viewers with show decor that looked like a supermarket- complete with everything from Chanel eggs to Chanel pasta. The collection featured their classic tweed coats in an array of colors, often paired with trainers or knee- high lace up boots. Much more fabulous than the average morning stop for milk.
