Haul: Current trends for spring

- New fashion pieces - Effortless style - 
Here are a few things that i have purchased recently from some high streets shops. This is my post winter wardrobe additions. These are probably the last pieces i will buy in regards to winter clothing as a lot of stores have part launched their spring collection 2012.


* Floral Design Cardigan - This cardigan has a bohemian style attached. It would dress up a casual outfit. The colours are very spring 2012 Esq. However just going to state that the material is not that comfortable on the skin, so it you are sensitive to awkward materials i would suggest you do not purchase this cardigan. However, i do not mind it as it looks too nice he he.
* Canvas Bag - I purchased this bag for college. The simple design and the slight reference to the contrast trend that is prevalent at the moment is great as it is less likely to clash or alter my outfit. I prefer my bag for school to be quite simple as i will be seen wearing it everyday and it will have to go with all my outfits.
* Faux Fur Stole (Out of stock online) - Faux fur is really on trend this winter. It makes an outfit look more glamorous. It is definitely a love/hate item. 
* Crochet Collar - Peter pan collars are a must have all year round. I purchased a couple as i can wear them multiple times on different outfits and no one will notice. Also, you can wear old tops again and accessories it with a collar.

* The Faux Fur Stole is out of stock online as it went into the sale, however you can find similar styles on ASOS. The floral design cardigan is subject to availability regarding the sizes as it is currently in the sale. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Get the look: Kelly Rowland

Vintage floral designs


This outfit that Kelly Rowland wore to the judges houses is definitely not a fashion mistake. The delicate materials and pretty designs really go well together. The ethnic floral design with the cute, milky mustard coloured pussy bow blouse create a vintage inspired outfit. If you tuck pussy bow blouses into skirts, shorts or trousers, you will see a more trendy and polished look.


I used the H&M Look App on their website (www.hm.com) to put this outfit together because I wanted to see how the cardigan looked on my style of clothing before I decided if I was going to purchase it. The women modelling the clothing was on the App. I would probably wear a shirt or blouse with a simple design rather than the one displayed on this post as the cardigan has a prominent detailed design already. Despite this, I think anyone can pull of this chic look.

All these items should be available in the H&M website www.hm.com.

Pussy Bow Blouse: Click to buy

 Some of the items may have been put into the sale (subject to availability). However, I am sure you can find similar styles on the H&M website or from other high street stores such as Topshop, New Look and Warehouse.

Haul: Vanessa Hudgens inspiration

My recent order with H&M (Sale)

Here are a few bits and bobs I have recently ordered from H&M, I should receive it sometime this week. Accessories really do make an outfit more suited for an occasion and less casual. This is why I have recently been purchasing more accessories such as collars, necklaces, and scarfs etc. You can wear them more than once and create new outfits ideas in result of this. H&M have 25% off 1 item (even sale items are eligible in this offer) when you sign up to their newsletter (subject to availability).

Vanessa Hudgens is a great style icon when it comes to being trendy, chic but casual. I have noticed she always stays modern with her style by adding accessories such as necklaces, belts and hats to her outfits.
