The Fresh Pick of Spring Fashion Trends 2014
Here comes spring! Here to lift our spirits from the heaviness and the chilliness of the winter months but also presenting a bit of a wardrobe dilemma in terms of challenging us to keep warm and cool, and dry and whatever else as the notorious British weather changes from moment to moment. On the bright side, it is a chance to spring clean our wardrobes and add some fantastic new basics and fashion items. Here’s our ideal shopping list for the next couple of months.
Cobalt blue shirt dress from And Other Stories
The most talked about colour of the season is a bright cobalt blue / royal purple hybrid. If you want to get the look on the high street, visit And Other Stories.
This is the sister brand of high street giants H&M and is fairly new to London, but the flagship store on Regent Street continues to put out gems such as this gorgeous and very on trend bright blue shirt dress. Wear it with a pair of brightly coloured sneakers or sophisticated strappy gold heels to make it suitable for all occasions. It would do a great job of keeping you at the right temperature–just add tights and a jacket on a cold and breezy day and wear alone when the sun is out.
WoS watch in metallic silver
Trouble keeping your appointments? Metallics continue to be a huge trend this year and rose gold is the most trendy of all. Gold, silver, and bronze might be regal and mysterious, but rose gold is universally flattering and unique in that it still an unusual choice. If you want something more classic then you can’t go wrong with a www.watches-of-switzerland.co.uk watch in silver. We recommend wearing it with a selection of bracelets.
New Balance running shoes 620
Walking all day in ballet flats or canvas deck shoes can wreck havoc on your feet. Give your feet a rest by treating yourself to some new running shoes, which will support your feet and help with your overall posture. Plus, do we really have to convince you when they look as stylish as the New Balance 620? Our favourite colourway is the grey and yellow. What’s yours?
Fossil mint green shoulder bag
This trusty baggage brand makes this bag in many colours and materials, but we think that the mint green is the most on trend for 2014. We promise that it will go with everything that is already in your wardrobe. It is a pastel, yet it’s definitely a colour pop. The chain detailing gives the bag a sophisticated edge and the multitude of pockets and sleek shape means that it’s very easy to tote around with you.
Which items do you always rely on to get you through the tempestuous weather of springtime? We hope you enjoyed our selection and we’ve tried to include an item for everyone’s needs. Let us know if you plan to purchase any of these and maybe leave a review for other readers. With this taken care of, now all we have to do is plan our summer swimsuit and sun hat purchases. Hard work, eh?
