>> Another season, another London Fashion Week down. But which six collections do we see sticking in our minds for the ages? Cue slideshow.
>> When it's cold and grey outside, a red dress can be the perfect anecdote to your Wintertime blues. This street-snapped cutie knows what we mean: her bright shirt dress — paired with a cozy camel shearling jacket and black suede wedges — emotes such a cool girl vibe. We love it, and if you do too, nab our similar picks from Joseph, Elizabeth and James, Paul & Joe, and Topshop.
Left to right: Joseph Crepe de Chine Shirtdress ($395), Elizabeth and James Deco Ring ($135), Paul & Joe Sheepskin Jacket ($928, originally $1,395), Romygold Wood Handle Bag ($585), Wolford Satin Opaque 50 Tights ($42), Topshop Java Platform Wedges ($130)

>> It wouldn't be right for us to move on to Milan Fashion Week without giving you an up close and personal look at the top shoes and bags straight out of London. After all, the city across the pond showed some amazing pieces. Our top 18 picks include open-wedge sandals from David Koma; a fun and furry oversized clutch from Holly Fulton; and this printed velvet bootie from Erdem, seen left. And it only gets better — start clicking to see covetable pieces from Burberry, Christopher Kane, Mulberry, and more!
>> As London Fashion Week comes to an end, let's check out some behind-the-scenes fun — including a face-painted Hyoni Kang at Vivienne Westwood Red; a zoomed-in look at Burberry's handbags; and pink-haired sensation Charlotte Free with a slicked-back 'do. Check out the slideshow for more model mania!
