Say goodbye to the bright jewel tones which we saw dominate last seasons collections, this summer pastel shades are big news. Think ice-cream colours, sugar, spice and all things nice. Here at London Stylings we are going crazy for a palette of pinks, mint greens, lemon yellows and lilac.
The spring summer 12 catwalk collections were full of soft tones perfect for the summer days approaching and we saw the pastel trend dominate the likes of Prada, Preen, House of Holland, Chanel and Jenny Packman.
Louis Vuitton took their extravagant show to a whole new level and models were seen perched on an enormous mirrored carousel. The collection had a slight 60s influence and showcased a number of floaty pieces including rounded skirts and cute collars. The show was designed by Marc Jacobs and was reported to cost a hefty $1 million to produce; even our favourite London fashionista Kate Moss made an appearance on the catwalk.
British based fashion label Mulberry have also taken to the pastel trend for their spring summer ad campaign which was shot on Brighton beach by top fashion photographer Tim Walker. We love the sugary sweet summer feel and ice cream props.
If you want to achieve the look for a fraction of the price then look no further than your local Topshop which is full of pretty pieces to suit every shape and size. If you are feeling brave then why not rock the look head toe with these cute peach shorts, mint sleeveless blouse and pale blue satin pumps.
To glam up the outfit add some sparkle with these crystal bracelets from Tresor Paris. Why not try the lilac ‘Le Mans’ cord bracelet layered up with the ‘Arles’ light blue and ‘Deauville’ crystal and magnetite style. The Magnetite in the bracelet is believed to aid recovery and be good for skin – what’s not to love?
