Look Book| Spring Pastels

Polyvore

So its officially springtime and I can't wait for the weather to get a little warmer so we can finally start leaving the house without a super warm coat and boots! For me, Spring means pastels and this year, pastels are huge! I am a huge fan and they always really cheer me up, it makes such a change from the greys, reds and blacks that have been filling up my wardrobe.

So I decided to put together this little collage of a few things that I am absolutely loving and to give you all a few ideas if you hadn't had a chance to look round the shops lately. I've included a few sweatshirts because here in England, rocking a T shirt may be a little too optimistic some of the time. I also fell in love with these cute tie dye denim shorts even though I know realistically I will be not be wearing them for quite a few months! For those of you that just want to add a little splash of pastel to your look, then these cute mint converse would be ideal! As for accessories, pick up some shades or some simple jewellery pieces to add a little bit of springtime to your overall outfit. I'm also in love with these hair ties that don't damage your hair no matter how often you use them! They are brilliant and come in so many colours, well worth a look.

As for beauty products, there are hundreds of gorgeous ice cream shade nail polishes to brighten you up and I adore these bronzing/highlighter pearls. If anything, the packaging is just the cutest thing!

So thats a few ideas for you and some things that I am absolutely loving at the moment! Whats one of your favourite Spring trends? Do you love pastels?

Look Book | Autumn Is Coming...

Polyvore

Hey everyone! Autumn is really just around the corner now and that means we can start shopping for those winter boots, chunky knits and accessories to take us from summer to fall. Its one of my favourite times of year, I just love the style in Autumn/Winter. Its much more me and I find there are a lot more choices out there for everyone. Today's post is a possible outfit for when the weather isn't quite cold enough for your favourite sweaters and scarves but you still want to rock the fall trends. :)

So first up, a pair of jeans. I live in jeans most of the year but fall is the perfect season to really style them up and make them look special. I love this skinny pair that look slightly distressed and because they are a medium wash, they aren't too wintery and are a perfect transition piece. Next, I paired them with this gorgeous tartan shirt. Tartan is going to be huge for A/W13 and I am so excited! I just think tartan really transforms an outfit and the great thing about shirts is they can be worn either as a jacket, with the sleeves rolled up or down and paired with pretty much anything. They are ideal for the in-between season look and I just love the denim panel on the back too. I will be searching Topshop high and low for this, thats for sure! Onto Boots, now I love buying a new pair of boots every year and its worth it because you pretty much live in them for most of the year, here in the UK. I love these chunky, black biker boots with this outfit, it just toughens it up and links nicely with the shirt. The great thing about black biker boots is that they look fantastic with so many things, perfect if you only want to purchase one new pair this season.

Moving on to jewellery, its all about chunky rings this season and I just adore them. The more the better and I like to just pile them on. I find this looks best with gold ones but you can play around with a mix match of metals to create your own style. I also included some chunky black and gold bangles too match in with the boots and toughen up the look. Lastly, its time for the makeup. Now red lipstick is always a perfect fall colour and this Topshop one is the perfect shade but lashes are meant to pretty big this A/W so I also included MAC's Zoom lash mascara too. As for nail polish, a mixture of black and red nails is ideal for this look. Its all about the finishing touches after all. :)
