Trend alert: April showers

It’s finally happened Ladies and Gentlemen: the sun has returned to us after a winter that felt longer than one from Game of Thrones. Celebrate in style with pastels, prints, and the LPD. Put away your LBD and grab yourself a Little Pink Dress. Check out this Structured Skater Dress from ASOS. Delish.

In addition to the LPD, skinny fit pastel trousers are also a must have, perfect with a denim jacket. What with the weather still being so unpredictable, us Brits are going to have to hone our already impressive layering skills. Light and ladylike jackets or blazers over a neutral cardi is definitely a good place to start, especially when combined with a cute pair of pastel jeans. We love these Mint Green Skinny Jeans from New Look. Add an unstructured nude blazer and you’re good to go!

Shock and surprise, flowers are big this season. Who’d have guessed it?! We’re seeing them in more places than one, but predominantly in pastel and neutral tones. Roses in particular seem to be a favourite, and we are totally in love with this cheeky little Rose Print Crop from Australian label, Keepsake. Wouldn’t say no to the skirt either… in fact, their whole collection is littered with pretty pink rose print, so certainly worth a look! We’ve also selected a gorgeous oversized floral headband by Rock ‘n’ Rose, just in case you weren’t getting the hint about flower trends.

Keep an eye out for navy blue and white polka dots, ethnic prints and dungarees as we launch ourselves into the long awaited British springtime fun! This season is all about cute, pretty and most of all, fun!
