Apologies for my lack of posts, the run up to Christmas caused me to get rather distracted to say the least.....but now I’m back fighting fit and true to form.
I don’t know about you, but I have had ENOUGH of the cold weather...bring on summer (or at least a few rays of sunshine, so that I can start wearing my sunglasses without people on the bus thinking I’m a diva!!!)
A few weeks ago myself and a couple of chums went to the Vogue Selfridges evening; Calgary Avinsino , Executive Editor of Vogue was presenting a talk on the upcoming trends for spring summer......and boy can I hardly wait!!! Granted, I’m not in the position to afford all of the designer selections that were displayed on stage - but one can only dream! If I were a rich girl, na na na-na na-na na na na-na naaaaaa.
Sports couture, artisan detail, stripes, bold print, even louder and more bold colour, you will certainly see me coming this summer. So, a rundown of what I can’t wait to be wearing?
1. Block colour – in fact the brighter the better, think tangerine (yes that’s right, tangerine not orange!), blue, pink, red. In fact, according to the fashion gods that be, block colour works even better when you mix clashing colours, so wear a bright pink dress with a big red handbag…..sounds crazy my dears, but I’ve seen it with my own eyes and it worrrrrrkkkks!

2. Floral – but not sissy, weedy type flowers, more like ‘over the top and in yer face’ floral prints, its feminine with an edge. Take a looksee at the t-shirt from Jonathan Saunders, its floral mosaic in the form of a baggy boyfriend tee. If this is too casual looking, try this jumpsuit from ASOS.
3. 1970s – yay!!! Super high wedges, halter necks, dresses and skirts with full on volume and glamour! If I was a gazillionnaire I’d be rocking pieces from the Marc Jacobs SS2011 collection, in particular this little number!
