White is the New Black

Never underestimate the power of all white. This season the simple colour is bringing a modern and fresh twist to your look and with the weather improving there's no better way to show off your tan. Whether you fancy a sleek white suit or just a slick of white polish, there is something for everyone to try.

Top Five Trends this Season

1. The Rucksack.
No longer just for school kids, brands like Miu Miu and Burberry have made this practical accessory into a popular style statement. You could try a subtle brown leather or take a more playful approach with a colourful printed rucksack.

    

2. Ripped Jeans.
This trend is super easy because you can just take the scissors to your old jeans (if you are brave enough). The trick is to have just the right amount of rips, you don't want to end up looking like you've been through the shredder.

    

3.Off the shoulder is better.
 At least it is when it comes to dresses and tops this season. Even if it is just a simple white dress like Emma Watson is wearing, the shoulder cutout can make it interesting and elegant.You also get the opportunity to show off your collarbones.

  

4.Crotchet shorts and bralets.
With Summer fast approaching, I am loving this trend and Vanessa Hudgens rocked it at Coachella. It helps if your tanned but unfortunately I look like a snowman.

  

5. The Envelope Skirt.
The asymmetric look of this trend brings a new twist to the classic mini skirt. Usually I would wear something like this for a formal event but the pictures show that you can dress it down as well for a more casual style.

  

Get your Skirt On

Well it's Spring and on the odd chance that the weather turns nice, why not try one of these skirt combos?
Long or short, they never fail to create a casual chic look. Enjoy your weekend everyone x

The Power of Pretty

Whether it's Jourdan Dunn, Cara Delevingne, Georgia May Jagger or Karlie Kloss, models have been dominating the fashion scene not only on the runway but off duty too. Therefore here are my favourite model looks to give you some ideas, enjoy!

Brian Lichtenberg

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay with this post. So basically the news is that I'm seriously obsessed with  Brain Lichtenberg at the moment. I'm pretty sure that a lot of you will have heard of him but if you haven't then you are totally missing out . He's a designer that makes the most awesome beanies and sweat tops by mimicking brand names. Take a look and you'll see what I mean...

Can tartan be reinvented?

To be honest, not so long ago, if I saw a tartan skirt in a shop I would run a mile. This was due to the fact that for me tartan is usually associated with middle aged men in kilts. Recently however tartan has been reinvented thanks to many celebs and designers. So (you probably know what's coming next) here's how to wear tartan this autumn/winter.

Tartan is now a key element in grunge style. Be careful to keep your look laid back and it's a good idea to team your outfit with some doc martins or chunky gladiator sandals like these ones.

If you prefer safer styles then go for the 'tie something around your waist' trend. This works amazingly with tartan and is one of the main street styles of 2013.

       

Why not go for a more preppy look by adding cosy knits, loafers or a peter pan collar.

Or maybe you could find your inner cowgirl and go for a simple tartan shirt.
