Spring is in full swing and bright colours are popping out everywhere for SS12! One of the hottest Spring/Summer trends is colour blocking, and mixing contrasts of hot pink, tangerine, yellow and cobalt blue will give you the perfect colour block look.

Loud and proud colour combinations will create a dynamic, confident look so choose the right colour combinations to create a bold statement. The key rule is the brighter, the better.

We have “spotted” a new trend for SS12! It’s polka dots! The must-have print exudes a youthful flair, but still remains incredibly chic and timeless. Classic pieces such as the shirt or pencil skirt can instantly be updated with a stylish polka dot print.

Spring has defiantly sprung! From delicate posies to large-scale abstract prints, the floral trend is in full bloom for SS12. Inky abstract prints dominate the trend and, combined with a vibrant colour palette give a contemporary twist to these decorative posies.
