Fashion: Zara S/S 12

As the Autumn/ Winter 12 collections hit the runways this month, the high-street's S/S collections begin to hit the rails. 
After having some time to kill last weekend while waiting for a friend, I headed to Zara on Oxford Circus.
I don't generally shop in Zara as there isn't one near me but that's probably a good thing as I could of spent a small fortune.

Whether your after a 20's style dress, a floral print shirt or pastel accessory, Zara and TRF S/S 12 collection encapsulates the most coveted looks from the runway at a fraction of the price.






I think it's probably best for my bank balance to not shop at Zara at the moment but come pay day I may have no control over my actions :)

S/S 12 Sherbet favourites

After the brief flirtation with snow we had today, it feels like were digressing back to winter rather than Spring/Summer. But a bit of snow doesn't stop the high-street from stocking Summer staples so following on from my Spring obsession with Pastel shades,  I've rounded up my sherbet favourites from the high-street. 

1. peach dress £65, Jones&Jones
2. Lilac denim shorts £14.99, New Look
3. Drape front longsleeve top £36, Topshop
4. Light yellow lace belted skater dress £35, River Island
5. BITTEN Suede Platform Heeled Sandals with T-Bar £75, ASOS
6. PISA Platform Chunky Suede Sling Back Shoes £75, ASOS
7. Pastel Metal Keeper Super Skinny Belt £6, ASOS
8. Lemon snake twist lock bag £25, Topshop

Trends: S/S 12 - Pastel

I feel already this may be my favourite trend for summer this year. I love the sugary shades of lemon and lilac and even though it's technically still winter just looking at these shades makes it feel like it could already be summer (until you look out the window).

Louis Vuitton's S/S12 show looked stunning with models (including Kate Moss) displaying a confectionary of sugary shades on a carousel no less!

There are some gorgeous pastel pieces already appearing on the high street. I was going to do a round up of my favourites until I found far too many that I wanted to share with you but then ran out of time to actually upload them (so this week may be an influx of pastel focused posts).

I'm glad these shades are back for summer though as I have a spring wedding and I bought a lemon Warehouse dress last year which I now know will be bang on trend. :) 

Just call me mystic meg (or maybe i'm just obsessed with yellow?)
