Summer is soon upon us!

Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer (slightly), I thought I'd write a post about my favourite spring/summer trends for 2013.

The biggest by far is monochrome. Wear black or white separately this season to look cute and classical but mix them together if you want to look the best! My monochrome midi skirt is from New look for £14.99 and can be dressed up or down for a fab day or night look. It also ticks off the trend of stripes which is set to be HUGE this season, 2 for the price of 1!


Pastel colours work on any skin tone and can be worn clothes or makeup wise. You simply can't go wrong! Get my mint green pastel tee from H&M for a fab £7.99. There are so many colours to choose from too. I have five! Wear with jeans or shorts for a cool look in the day or tucked into a skater skirt for a naughty but nice night look. Green, along with yellow is also a massive hit for summer.


Finally, one of my all time faves is leather. My leather waistcoat is from Miss Selfridge for around £80. Sleeveless jackets are a must to vamp up any summer look with a bit of edge. The lack of sleeve also counter balances the heat from the leather.

Glam Goth

Hi,

Winter is fast approaching, it's the first of December!
Here are my top three trends for this season of what designers are calling 'Glam Goth'.




· Studs - Studs can be worn in any which way you please, from a biker jacket to glam up a pretty dress to studs on the pockets of your jeans to draw attention to your best assets. I've gone for slipper studs. These shoes were from New Look priced at £17.99 and have been fantastic! I've worn them nearly every day for the past month and the studs have only just started to ping off. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing as you can buy individual studs from almost every design house and stick them on yourself to make a fab new design!
 

· Crucifix - The sign of where Jesus Christ himself was killed and just like Jesus, the crucifix design has become part of my religion this season. This Venus knitted crucifix jumper was purchased from TK MAXX two weeks ago and has been a god send, it's so warm! The only downfall is that the studding could have been a different colour to stand out on the oatmeal background colour more.
 

· Black Leather - The most popular black leather piece I've seen in shops and on the general public are jackets. Don't get me wrong, they are practical and cosy but so last year! This year, I've opted for some leather look leggings from River Island. They can be dressed up or down, give them a go!
