OK Lovelies, the weather started to warm up here
in the UK, and my thoughts darted quickly to Spring
(before I missed the event that could have lasted all
of a day ;-)
So these are my picks of the Spring trends for 2013.
PASTELS
First up is my fav designer Carolina Herrera. My home in
Spain is literally 2 minutes from one of her stores and it proved
to be a "dangerous" place for me to live. Anyway, I digress.
CH went for pastels. I read pastels will be going into
Autumn/Winter 2013 also. So maybe it's worth the splurge.
If you are going for pastels I've recommended keep your
jewellery pastel or simple (pastel on pastel seems to be
a big trend also this year)

BOLDS:
Diane Von Furstenberg did gorgeous "wearable" bolds
Here are some of my favs.
Again if you are going bold, I would either
accentuate the color you are wearing as with
the stacking bangles that incorporate the same
colors or just go simple.

BLACK &WHITE:
As these are 2 colors I live in, I had to include them.
Both Carolina Herrara (middle image) and Chanel
focused on these colors.
The great thing with these colors is you can
really amp up and go bold, and add just enough
color to add "pop" to your outfit.

STRIPES:
Stripes were also featured for this Spring both Marc Jacobs (images on
the left and right) and Chanel (middle image) went for stripes.
I do love stripes in the Spring and Summer
but am maybe overly conscious about wearing
them. I think they have to be just right without making
me look like I am a pedestrian crossing ;-)
If you are going for stripes keep your bling plain,
bold (if you wish) but simple. You don't want too
much going on with the stripes.

So there you go Lovelies, my picks.
I am by no means an expert, just selected
what I like ;-)

Which theme are you aiming for this Spring?
Whose designs really took your breath away?
(either from above or other).
Would love to hear you thoughts about
what you are coveting for Spring/Summer.
