Summer isn’t over just yet!

If you haven’t given up on summer just yet here’s some inspiration to keep you going!

Nature designs such as birds are everywhere still, despite the A/W looks ruling the stores. Try this day bag and incorporate it into your usual weekend look.

Bright bold and eye-catching, these bangles make statement costume jewellery fun!

Wedges are my altogether favourite style of shoes, not just because I can walk in them whatever height, but because they look much more sleek and stylish than your average stiletto and go with anything if you get the colour right! This white pair are perfect for a staple summer wardrobe.

Do bright happy sandals make for a happy happy person? I think so! Keep your outfit plain and inject some colour from the floor and make what we have left of summer colourful!

Summer Trends

 3 Trends I’m Loving This Summer…

And think you should too!

1.

 They are so laid back and casually stylish which makes them incredibly difficult to get wrong!

Shirts from M&S, Jane Norman, Mint Velvet, La Redoute

2.

Whenever I buy new trends I tend to neglect my bottom half, instead opting for the basics like jeans, skirts or chinos – these patterned shorts can go with my basic wear this summer and incorporate the trend in a new way than before – great for festivals too!

Shorts both from Yogoego

3.

What would we do without them in the summer sun?!

Sunglasses from Internacional, Primark, Accessorize, Jacamo SS11 menswear

My favourite from the collection is this elegant strapless light gold chiffon maxi dress. With it’s rouche detail on the bust and floaty fabric it is sure to be my summer lust have! Pair with accessories in similar nudes from the collection to keep the focus on the dress.

If you’re going to invest in one bag this season invest in the clutch.

Here Evevee presents two stunning clutches in royal eye-catching colours; royal red and vivid blue

If you’re not sure how to wear such bright shades of red and blue then these clutches are prefect for incorporating a splash of colour into your Summer outfit. The twisted elegant designs of layered fabric give another dimension to them, taking them away from boring flat styles of latter day, instead injecting detail and femininity.

But if you are not ready for that colour pop yet, take a look at the other styles on the website. These include cut out, one shouldered and strapless nude numbers in floaty layers or prom style black evening dresses. The red strapless satin dress from the collection (above) and a black twisted front clutch (red version shown above) arrived for me today! The fabric on both clearly shows the brands lavishness and sensuous taste and the fit is like a glove! If it’s good enough for Evevee…

It’s All Romance And Flowers

For Spring Summer 2011 the Mulberry design team took the inspirations of romance and flowers and channelled them into the Flowerbed Dress.

The flower phenomenon has come back bolder and brighter than ever before this SS11, playing on nature’s extremes.

Whether it’s dresses, skirts, tops or accessories, mixing combination’s of colours, prints and designs is key to this trend.  Key colours to look out for would be either bold and bright yellows, oranges or reds and in the ditsy designs look out for pastels of blue and green hues. Compliment your figure by going for larger prints if you’re curvy or smaller prints if you have a more petite frame, but this season anything goes!

I would love to see this Mulberry design as a more affordable high street version! LLLB
