Spring style trends!

When I have been shopping recently, browsing stories of what celeb's have been spotted out wearing, and generally just having a look at what people are wearing at the moment, I have come to realise there are a quite a few main trends which are out there at the moment! So, this post is going to take you through the style trends that I think are most prominent at the moment, what do you think of them? Which is your favourite trend? :)

Gingham

Although gingham is not a particular favourite of mine, it is everywhere at the moment! At first I was a little surprised that it had made a comeback, but some of the items below are just so lovely, there really is something for everyone. Gingham also comes in so many different colours; black, grey, blue, pink, green... however although my favourite piece below is the #1 shell top, I can't see me buying gingham this season, I wore enough of it at primary school!

1. Textured gingham shell top- £34- Topshop

2. MOTO gingham print joni jeans- £38- Topshop

3. Gigham marl tank mini dress- £26- Topshop

4. Petite gingham bralet- £18- Topshop

5. Oysho gingham check bandeau bikini- £31.98- ASOS

 

Tropical prints

 

Literally last week I was in Topshop (I am in there most days) and I noticed that all of a sudden, one section of the store was dedicated to tropical prints! This one really puts me right in the mood for summer, whether it is palm trees, pineapples or parrots there are so many different ways to wear this print! I particularly love #3, #4 and #5, I have noticed that Topshop have so many gorgeous bikini's in store recently, this tropical print one is not only bang on trend, but the high waist style also means it is super flattering!  





1. Shorts in tropical print- £30- ASOS

2. Fruit print peplum cami- £26- Topshop

3. Palm tree crop skater dress- £65- Topshop

4. Palm tree jacquard crop top- £34- Topshop

5. Tropical high waist bikini- £34- Topshop

 Pastels

 

This one is probably my favourite SS14 trend, pastels allow you to be colourful but not too bold, mint, powder blue, lilac and baby pink are just gorgeous for this season and because so many of the items below are statement pieces they will carry you through till summer and then you can get them out and wear them over again next year! I particularly love #1 and #6 as PU and fluffy jumpers are also a popular style choice for this season.

1. Ultra mini skirt in patent PU- £32- ASOS

2. Split side chiffon tee- £34- Topshop

3. Crop top with turtle neck- £8- ASOS

4. Quilt cross body bag with rabbit ears- £18- ASOS

5. Light pink drawn wool oversized coat- £80- River Island

6. Daphne eyelash cropped jumper in pink- £28- Fashion Union

7. Hearts & bows blue cherish pastel knit- £19.99- ARK

 Floral

 

Floral is timeless. Other prints may come and go into fashion, but floral is always a popular choice for spring and summer, they are super girly and fun to experiment with, whether you want a bold print or a smaller more subtle print there is definitely something out there for everyone, also you cannot miss these prints, they are all over the high street and are a key SS14 trend. My favourites are #2 floral satin skort, #2 floral bra top and #5 fun and flirty floral playsuit!

2. Multi blurry floral skort- £38- Topshop

3. Pink floral jacquard bra top- WAS £32 NOW £15- Miss Selfridge

4. Finders keeps asymmetrical skirt in floral print- £119- ASOS

5. Emelia floral eyelash lace playsuit- £29.99- Missguided

6. Alice McCall Queen of Bermuda dress- £300- ASOS

7. Peg trousers in vintage tapestry floral print- £22- ASOS

 Sport chic

 

The final trend which I wanted to share with you is probably the most unusual trend, 'sporty chic' is most certainly making a big impact on the high street, whether you want to go all out with trainers and a basket ball vest, or want to incorporate just a little of the trend into your outfit with a rah rah skirt, you really can have a lot of fun with this trend, also it is perfectly acceptable to run straight from the gym and pass it off as 'sporty chic', haha.
