Style inspiration from the great outdoors is not a new concept – but this year it’s certainly being done in a refreshing way…

Natural, earthy materials give the feeling of being more at one with nature and a great sense of well being. 

Wood works particularly well for interesting fashion pieces and highly on trend for rustic home looks. 

Sunglasses made from Bamboo {4} are super light and make for very stylish eyewear. Try the TRENTO Black eco sunglasses by Antonio Verde (£50) from www.komodo.co.uk

A Wooden Watch? Unisex Kappa Watch (£119.00) at www.watchshop.com  The LSTN Wooden Wireless Headphones {5} (£180) are made with sustainably sourced ebony or zebra wood and vegan leather ear pads www.creperecords.com
