Roisin Murphy's erratic style

Europe's disco diva Roisin Murphy might not be a huge pop star (in fact I love she is not in the mainstream) but she is an untiringly muse for couturiers and an undoubtedly style icon.
Her fashion sense matches the eclectic music she's known for, a cutting-edge electronic, pop and dance mix, with references going from her idol Grace Jones to David Bowie circa Ziggy Stardust era.

Runways featured endless interpretations of knits for Fall ‘08—from big knit sweater coats to luxurious cardigans, sweater dresses are the casual option to winter easy luxury.Whether you slip them on over skinny jeans or opaque tights, avoid the bulky styles, opt for soft textured or fine gauge yarns. Restrict your color palette and pick the soft neutrals.If you’d like to create contrast, pair with shiny accessories like a structured tote bag and a great pair of lace up boots or pumps for work. Use a belt for the fine slouchy silhouettes. Ultimately, it’s an expressive piece and completely up to your interpretation.

Seriously, what could be hotter than the Little Black Dress reborn as a trendy SWEATER DRESS?! I was looking for that perfect dress that I could wear to a party, and actually wear again. Useful, no?! And then I found it. . . ! My very own, very favourite, cozy comfy sweater dress! Dress it up for evening wear, add a blazer for a day at the office, or pair it with a cute set of ballet flats for a day of shopping with friends. Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent is one of my favourite designers who made a gorgeous sweater dress in her collection this season.
