Trend: The New Neons

Neons - scary and a bit 90's? Not any more! Meet the New Neons...

Forget glow stick green, prison uniform orange and saftey vest yellow, the new neons have the punch of bright but with a little bit of pretty added in.

Oranges are more coral, green is softer and putrid pink is more of a pastel - you get the idea.  The neons have been made a bit more feminine.

Say hello to spring with a punch of neon!

Trend: Monochrome

This spring is monochrome crazy!  The sales are finally starting to clear and the Spring fashion is in...and black and white is key.

This trend is easy to wear and easy to update outfits you already have, perfect for a bruised bank account after Christmas!  The most stand out pattern is stripes, but also experiment with colour blocking, aztec inspired prints, geometric patterns, even polka dot. 

Here's a few ideas to update your wardrobe...

Stripe crop top, River Island £20
Stripe T, H&M £7.99
Block top, River Island £22
Stripe sleeveless shirt, H&M £14.99
Printed shirt, H&M £29.99
Stripe shirt, River Island £30




Zig-zag body con dress, River Island £25
Polka dot dress, H&M £12.99
Stripe skirt, Topshop £32
Cross pattern trousers, H&M £14.99
Printed Trousers, H&M £14.99
Be wary - Stripes are not always your friend! A horizontal stripe can be very unflattering, try before you buy. 

Good to be back!
