Trend Report - Step into Spring - Colours

No Comments »

An array of sugar-hued and boldly bright colours illuminated the catwalks for SS15, in a fun mix of delicate embossments and striking prints, laces and ruffles, soft leathers and shimmering satins. Also featured for the season were darker shades of black, navy, rich purples and deep khakis, which worked harmoniously with the lighter shades to disrupt the traditional associations of colour for Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter. I did get a little overexcited in the making of my trend report posts, and ended up saving over 1000 images from Vogue to create these collages... I know. So here are some of my favourite designs showcasing the colour trends, from the earthen tans to the crisp whites and vivid yellows - enjoy!

As you may have seen in my previous posts, I really do like the combination of pink and red, as I feel the colours complement each other well. The pink and red shades in my post Colour Block, were rather vibrant, so here I've opted for muted tones which have a more wintry appeal. Again, I love mixing many textures in one look, and am especially pleased with my fluffy jumper bought for me as a Christmas present by my twin - she knows me so well! It's quite a plain outfit, so I added a bow to make it more girly, though this sadly broke during the snapping and my attempt to make one wasn't so good! Hope you enjoy, anyway :) x

Shoesday

No Comments »

It's time for another Shoesday Tuesday, and I think that these shoes are pretty all white... Yeah, I went there. I am not a massive fan of the big platformed white sandals that have really hit off over summer. These shoes come in more classic styles, though they have interesting designs, textures or patterns. White is a great colour choice for shoes because it will goes with almost every other shade yet will give an outfit impact!

Neon Vibe

No Comments »

I've had a few stressful days as I've been locked out of my house (being as forgetful as I am and leaving my keys in Leeds), but there's always time for a blog post! I haven't worn neon too often, but I think that this bright yellow shade stands out more now that I'm slightly tanned, and I like how it contrasts with the pale sheer grey snake print on the kimono and the black skirt. This vest is great because it's very simple and versatile; it would brighten up a casual outfit and I can easily layer with it or dress it up with a statement necklace or a bold print.
