Create your summer style list with Lavish Alice

Tulisa had the X Factor when she wore it, Jess Wright looked so reem, we was all well jel when she stepped out in it and, well, it worked for Caroline Flack when she bagged herself the hottest member of One Direction. So what is their secret? Lavish Alice is the go-to label for girls who truly want to make a statement in purse-friendly, must-have items for the summer season!

From catwalk looks to celeb style that’s savvy enough to keep you gossiping for months, the beauty of Alice is that she is one of us; Alice is the party, she is the pivot of the scene, she’s the one we’re all waiting for – the one who releases our LAVISH side. So what are you waiting for? Let’s delve into the fashion wonderland that is Lavish Alice.

If it’s catwalk trends that inspire your wardrobe season in and season out, then this online store will be right up your street. Offering a wide range of clothing, footwear and accessories to suit every occasion, this summer is set to be a very stylish one indeed.

First up on the Lavish Alice top trend list is this season’s staple wardrobe item: The Bralet, £24. Influenced by the Dolce and Gabbana catwalk, tropical prints in primary colours feature heavily on monochromatic backgrounds embedded on 50’s style crop tops. The most glam girl in Essex Jess Wright was spotted leaving Sugar Hut in the yellow version of the top although the pink is just as pretty. Print match like Jess with a figure skimming pencil, go all-out with the 50’s trend by teaming with a full circle skirt, or even bare your midriff with a pair of hipster jeans and a denim jacket. Whichever way you’re wearing it, wear it with Lavish Alice.

 

Also on the trend list and on every fashionista’s wish-list this season is the peplum dress, £32. A pretty petal cut-out on the waist accentuates a full figure and creates curves for the more athletic shapes. A pair of leopard print heels will give an added edge to a feminine staple piece.

 

Following on from all things ultra feminine is pastel denim, £32; a street trend spotted on everyone who is anyone, from fashion bloggers to A-list celebs. A floral shirt will see your jeans through summer daytime activities such as a picnic in the park or a stroll down your local high street. A metallic tee will instantly update your ice-cream tones ready for a night out with friends. Try out other sweet colours such as mint and banana with Lavish Alice.

If you’re predicting, or hoping (like we all are!), for a summer that is too hot to keep your pins covered, why not be totally inspired by the London 2012 Olympics and get on the style team with these Americana denim cut-offs, £18? Kick it in Converse and a slogan rock tee for a gold medal!

Whilst those legs are in summer perfect condition, you might as well dabble with the high-low hem trend; a complete overhaul of last year’s infamous maxis that were seen all over the high street. Currently a favourite of Caroline Flack (and we all know the kind of attention she’s been enjoying lately!), it’s a style that will take your spring look straight through to high summer. The dusky blue of this dress, £38, from Lavish Alice not only complements most skin tones but the floaty material keeps you feeling ultra sexy for all occasions – a must buy!

Looking for something more ‘printiful’? Think Mary Katrantzou and you’ll be on the right lines. Botanical prints in orange and green blooms decorate this bodycon skirt, £14, with a clashing zig-zag running through the already boisterous design. Need a bit of height to support the bodycon shape? Try these lush nude heels on for size, £34, also from Lavish Alice.

 

If fast yet affordable fashion is what you’re after then this is the place to be. If it’s good enough to have a cult celebrity entourage, then it’s good enough for you and I! From cute day time looks to sizzling night time glamour, I think we can agree one thing: we’re all going to be Lavish Alice’s this season.
