SS14 TREND #6| Pastels

This is my final SS14 trend post, and I deliberately saved the best till last! My favourite upcoming trend for spring/summer is pastel colours, I really love pastels because they are so simple, clean and beautiful, it is also makes wearing some 'garish' colours easier to carry off, like greens and purples, so by wearing pastels it is so much easier for the less confident of us to add a splash of colour into our outfits and indeed our new season wardrobes! I love all of the colours and items below, I have tried to include a little something for every piece of an outfit, and I must say I am a huge fan of the #2 mint green top, #5 boyfriend coat and #6 eyelash jumper. I will most certainly be buying some pastel colour garments this season, just be experimental with these colours and don't be scared to try something new if your usual a 'monochrome' kinda girl like myself! Unlike some of the other trends I have covered this week, pastels are literally everywhere on the high street so you can't miss them, I have seen soooo many stores with sections dedicated to pastel colours! What do you think of pastels? Leave me a comment below! :)

SS14 TREND #5| Logos

Firstly, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! :) Are you doing anything special today? I'm spending the day with my kittens hehe, aww I love them! Anyway, today I am sharing with you a trend which I think is soooo cool. The 'logo trend' is one which has particularly caught my eye, although when wearing any of these items the look is very in your face I think of worn casually it's a great look! Personally I am really into logo t shirts but I think because it is sooo cold at the moment that the logo sweatshirts are great too, my favourite item included below is #7, the New York skirt it is just lovely! Such a statement piece, I am also a huge fan of #1 and #3 crop tees! Do you have any logo print clothing? What do you think of this trend? :)

SS14 TREND #4 | SPORTY CHIC

Today I must admit, the trend which I am blogging about is just sooo not me at all! I  am defo not into the whole 'sporty' look, however, I do think that this is a fantastic trend if you are into it. The concept of 'sporty chic' is so interesting for me, as to be honest, it allows you to look like you have just run from the gym, to university or whatever without looking like a sweaty mess! The items which incorporate a little bit of sporty chic are the ones which have grabbed my attention below, #2, #5 and #8 are ones which are my favourites and what I would actually consider wearing. Alternativley you could go completely sporty chic with #1, #3 and #7 but I guess it is up to your own preference, what do you think of this trend? Are you into it or not so much? :)

1. Holdall bag with nylon quilting- £25- ASOS

2. Eyes on you wide sports tee by Illustrated people- £38- Topshop

SS14 TREND #3| World prints, textures & accessories

Day number 3 of covering SS14 trends! I am really enjoying taking a look at all of the upcoming, different trends to look forward too next season, it is always best to have an idea of what is on trend and what's not when your out shopping I guess! :) Anyway, today is world prints, textures and accessories, so whether you go straight for bold prints like #1 or a more subtle print like #5 there is sooo many ways you can incorporate this trend into any outfit! Think ring stacking, necklace layering, tie die and bead embellishments! This is definitely one of my favourite trends, as I think it is such a fun trend to easily play around with. I have included a little bit of inspiration for you below depending on how you may want to wear this trend, all of these things are from the high- street but I would start checking out some markets to see what little bits and bobs you can pick up. What do you think? Will you be giving it a go? Be sure to leave me a comment below! :)

SS14 TREND #2| Florals

I particularly love this trend for spring/summer seasons as floral prints always look pretty and uplifting during the warmer months! Floral prints are literally everywhere on the high- street, so there is no way you won't come across this trend! Below I thought I would share with you a few different floral pieces, which are perhaps a little less usual that what you may already have in your wardrobe, I particularly love #2 blurred effect and #4, the shape of the skirt is just beautiful and I really haven't seen anything like this before, so it really caught my eye! You don't have to be super girly to wear floral, you can in fact wear it as a more subtle addition to an outfit, for example the trousers #7 would be perfect for night or day and are not too vibrant! Are you a fan of floral prints? Which is your favourite item from my post? :)

1. Floral print biker jacket- £70- ASOS

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

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

SS14 TREND #1| Art Prints

When I was planning what to use as content for my blog this week, I just thought, Spring is on it's way, and even though we are still in the very chilly winter months at the moment, it is never too early to start planning next seasons wardrobe! I haven't yet done a post on the upcoming trends yet, and as there are so many I thought I would do one for every day of this week. To begin with, I thought I would cheer you up on a Monday with an injection of crazy prints! I thought this is quite an unusual trend as 'art prints' can sometimes be quite difficult to carry off, but what is important to remember about this trend, is that you can either wear the prints as subtle or vibrant as you like! I have included a mixture below, it is quite simple to incorporate art prints into any outfit for example #4 could be a simple accessory to put with an outfit, or #1 could be a vibrant addition to an outfit. Art prints come in many different forms, whether it be stripes, tribal or checks, there is something for everyone! What do you think of this trend? :) 

1. Blouse in layered stripe placement print- £36- ASOS

2. Jarka flower print Bardot mini dress- WAS £14.99 NOW £8.99- Missguided

3. Edite monochrome geometric print bodycon dress- £35- Missguided
