2012 Trends


Hey, sorry I've not written in a really long time, had exams and interviews etc. and I have just been really busy with stuff in general, but hey!! Promise after my summer exams I'll be posting regularly.

Anyways, since I'm really tight on time, and fashion week's been and gone, here's a super quick update on spring 2012 trends.

We're loving the florals this year again. Go wild and tropical or pretty simple garden style. Either way, there's a place for florals from your dressed down walks down the streets to your fancy garden parties.


Colour block was so in last summer, and winter made use of its boldness too. This spring, colours are in. Vibrant citrus and hot pinks are a must for any individual with attitude to scream.



Chic 60s style, from cute blouses to perfect shift dresses, is one that suits all. The lovely silhouettes from 60s outfits proves to be super flattering for all so don't miss out!

3D frills also coming back in, keep thinking about pleats and the shapes that can come alive.


Ethic, animal and African prints, just like florals are becoming a standard spring/summer go to trend. But tho year, they're coming back even harder. Be adventurous with this trend; of you're gonna go there, GO THERE! Bring out the Bohemian goddess inside.


Neutral shades such as cream and beige are officially an elegant trend you must master. Neutrals are generally great for staple pieces in your wardrobe, but this year, they really are big enough to be their own trend. Seriously, neutrals this spring are really Bringing the fresh clean look.


As well as neutrals, pastels are rising in the fashion world again. Thing of those sugary macaroon tone and cool ice-cream shades.

And finally, a brand new trend; Sporty! In light of the fabulous Olympic games being held in the UK, we Brits are certainly milking some inspiration. Zipped up sporty jackets , shorts, sweatshirts- go for it all!


And please don't forget the basics, like stripes- they can be so easy and casual and so super chic too!
