Trending...Pastel Colours

New year, new season, new trends (plus a few of the old favourites of course!) so I decided to do a few get the look pieces encapsulating some of this seasons biggest trends.
To brighten up the cold winter blues I thought I'd start with Pastel colours, think ice creams, spring flowers and sunshine!!

Here's a bit of inspiration...










Ok, I have gone pastel crazy and found a TON of stuff so here goes....





Dresses
Miss Selfridge £32 - Encapsulates the pastel and draping trends while still being quite casual

Miss Selfridge £32 - For those who don't want floaty "pretty pretty"

Topshop £30 - Ladylike glamour, very Chanel!

Topshop £36 - Great for covering up in the cold weather

Topshop £80 - Really stylish, sleek and great shoulder detail.

Tops and Jackets
Miss Selfridge £28 - Great with skinny jeans or smartened at the office

Miss Selfridge £28 - gorgeous sky blue, pair with pastel pink jeans for a bubblegum look

Topshop £24 - This style looks great with skinny jeans and big heels for  sexy evening look

Topshop £30 - Try this over a fitted skirt with a skinny waist belt

Topshop £32 - This would look great with skinny leather trousers/leggings for a great hard/soft contrast.

Topshop £55 - I love the ladylike cut of this, wear with a floaty top and smart chinos

Topshop £45 - Gorgeous draped shape, wear with a fitted black maxi dress underneath or leather trousers for a contrasting look

Trousers, Shorts and Skirts

Topshop £12 - These leggings would look great under a white chiffon shirt for a minimal look

Topshop £28 - You can't beat a pair of chino's! Try a printed leotard and killer heels for an alternative evening look

Topshop £22 - more for summer admittedly but would look great with a loose fitting tee and brogues

Miss Selfridge £22 - Wear with some girly floral tights and  a plain  blouse for a  pretty feminine look

Topshop £32 - love the shimmery effect! A fitted roll neck  would set off this sleek silhouette, or a tweed jacket.

Topshop £32 - LOVE these!!!!! For Gossip Girl style wear with stilettos, blouse and a matching or cute tweed jacket (again!) 

Topshop £40 - Hells and a peplum style top for an evening look, or ballerina flats and a cropped tee for a daytime look

Shoes and Accessories

Miss Selfridge reduced to £4.87 - Great minimalist look

Miss Selfridge reduced to £4.87 - This hair clip is really unusual,  wear in loose hair clipped just behind the ear for a glimpse of colour

Topshop £10 - Cute and ladylike purse :-)

Topshop £16 - Love these retro shades!! Wear with a white shirt and pastel chinos for a Marilyn look

Topshop £16 - Perfect with blue skinny jeans for a preppy look.

Topshop £25 - Again, old school glamour, great with a day dress and pumps, think Olivia Newton John in Grease.

Topshop £36 - Travel in style with this weekend bag!

Topshop £60 - For a more androgynous look wear with tailored straight cut trousers and a shirt or pair with a pretty flirty dress for a contrast

That's it for the pastel styling really enjoyed looking through all the gorgeous colours, hope you enjoyed trawling through the mass of images!! xx
