Our top 10 shoes for this month...

We love this blog that succeeded in combining style , sustainability and social consciousness in a very original way. With fashion as her medium, and education her cause, U.P founder Sheena Matheiken launched the Uniform Project, pledging to wear one little black dress for 365 days as an exercise in sustainability and a fundraiser to support the Akanksha Foundation – a non-profit organization providing education to children living in Indian slums. And for the next year, Sheena reinvented her uniform solely using accessories that were either vintage, handmade, reused or donated.

Almost immediately, Sheena and the U.P were hit with a deluge of media attention. The project was featured in major publications ranging from Vogue, Elle and Glamour, hundreds of fashion, culture and design blogs, as well as TV shows around the world. By the end of the yearlong challenge, the U.P site received over 2 million hits and raised over $100,000 in donations for the Akanksha Foundation and Sheena was named one of Elle Magazine's Women of the Year for 2009.

This project continues with new initiatives, dresses and causes at www.theuniformproject.com

Here a short summary about what we will wear this autumn-winter. Take note about the essentials of this season and up date your wardrobe!

This year the checked shirts, that fits you that good, are back in. Big, medium or small sizes, in poplin or flannel; the checks must not be overlooked this winter.

The knitwear also arrives strong this season. Get your lumberjack chunky knit jumpers with jacquard designs so that you don’t freeze this winter!

To complete your look you can’t miss a lether jacket, both straight or washed and wrinkled, in matt or shiny finish or a military inspired redcoat with big pockets and details in leather or lumberjack style.

And, for protecting your feet use all kind of boots, including the trekking inspired boots!

The new it book arrives, Hex Hall (Rachel Hawkins). If you liked books such as Harry Potter or Eclipse, you won’t be able to resist this story that will catch you from the beginning. The main character is called Sophie and is 16 years old. Until now everything seams normal, were it not for the fact that she is a witch, and a rebellious one. That much that, as a punishment, she’ll be sent to Hex Hall, an isolated reformatory for witches, vampires and elves. She finds out that recently there has been a mysterious murder, in which the darkest forces may be involved ...

Bershka has had the honour to collaborate with the cover of the book, where the main characters are dressed in Bershka clothes from head to toe.

This is just the beginning of an incredible story about the world of magic, mystery, and .. first kisses.

Remember! Good girls go to school, and bad - to Hex Hall ... The choice is yours.
