Block Colours

Block colour is the look of the season. The brighter the colours the better, and the more colours clashing in your outfit the cooler it looks. Here are some of my top pics for adding bold colour to your outfit this Spring.

Pink dress  £25.99 – Zara

This bright pink dress has a lovely flared skirt that makes it extra girly. Teaming it with a bright pair of heels makes the outfit look very expensive.

Yellow skirt  £26.99 – River Island

Wear this skirt with the heels below for the perfect colourful summery look!

Blue dress  £26.99 – New Look

This dress is very simple but will cool and classy on.

Red Shoes  £19.99 – New Look

Shiny synthetic patent Loafer Heel

Perfect pleats

This spring it’s all about the pleats. Pleats give a summery femininity to any outfit and are easy to find on the high street.

Peach dress  £44 – Topshop

This dress is a little expensive but is so so pretty! Not only is it pleated but it has my favourite
Peter Pan collar too. The colour is great for summer. This is definitely a dress that you will
wear all through summer.

Orange skirt  £25 – Asos

This mini skirt can be dressed up or down. Wear with heels or with dolly shoes
for a pleat perfection look.

Red dress  £10 – Republic

I have this dress! It is very flattering on and the colour is great.
It is only £10 in the sale so get yours while you can!

Peter pan

Peter Pan collars are all over the high street at the minute and I love the cute vintage look they create.

Blouse  £25 – Asos

This gorgeous blouse would look great with a high waisted skirt or alternatively
denim shorts or jeans for a more casual look. 

Dress  £38 – Topshop

This dress is fun and very flattering. Animal print is perfect for every season.

Stripped dress  £16.99 – New Look

This dress combines the Peter Pan collar with the nautical style giving the perfect
summer look. Team with a chunky cardigan and leggings for a laid back day time
look or with bare legs and heels for a night out.

The best chinos on the high street for men

Chinos are the perfect trousers for men to wear during summer. They are light weight are look very cool. But where can you get affordable chinos on the high street? Below are 3 of my favourite high street chinos for men.

£34.99 – River Island

These chinos are a great colour and will go with everything! You can wear them
with flip flops, boots and hi-tops.

£39.99 – Zara

These chinos are a little bit more expensive but they are cotton so very comfy and lightweight.
The colour and shape makes the look very cool and casual.

£30 – Asos

These chinos are a smarter alternative so are perfect for a night out.

Steal from the stars

Steal your favourite celebrities look

Cheryl Cole doesn’t usually do casual but this outfit screams comfort. Strips are always a hit in the spring so this jumper is not only practical but bang on trend too!

Olivia Palermo always channels the effortless chic look and this outfit is not exception! The ruffles on the shirt soften the leather shorts giving a feminine yet edgy look.

Siva from The Wanted looks cool and casual on a night out in Manchester.
