It's officially Spring and SS15 is in full bloom. We saw some beautiful dusky pastel collections on the runway for SS15 but Oscar de la Renta didn't let us down with his soft hues of pinks, creams, lemons and baby blues. One of our favourite ensembles from the collection was the beautiful laser cut lace skirt paired with a luxurious cream and pink checked shawl. It's a perfect mix of warmth with a hint of flirtyness. Here's how you can recreate this look.






We've gone for a 3D textured lace skirt from Topshop which works beautifully with this high necked soft pink top. We've gone for a longer version of the structured tank, as it's more wearable and flattering for anyone that isn't a supermodel. You can recreate the luxurious shawl with a thin knit over-sized wrap, worn almost like a kimono. Slip a pair of pastel heels on, these little lovelies are surprise surprise from Topshop. Theyr'e simple and elgant and the chunky heel is much easier strut your stuff in.

 This look is all about celebrating femininity. It's soft, dainty and sophisticated. Jewellery is kept to a minimal with a pair of over-sized earrings. To emphasize these, wear your off your face so all eyes are on your ear candy. We love our Casey Pastel Jewel Earrings from the new Candy Pastels collection, exclusive to us. Finish the look with soft shades of pink on your nails and lips. Add a sleek flick of eyeliner for a chic stylish ensemble that any Oscar de la Renta fan would be proud of!

This will definitely be our favourite style steal for the foreseeable months.

A huge trend that seems to make an appearance every season is monochrome, due to the fact that the trend screams sophistication, style and chicness. This year is no exception with pioneers such as Givenchy and Chanel leading the way. Monochrome is bolder than ever, with designers experimenting with textures, prints and and every shade of gray in between (50 shades I may add).

We have looked at how to wear monochrome in a classic and glamorous way, but to pull off monochrome as day wear in a stylish and edgy manner may seem a little harder to master. But we're here to tell you differently. It;s actually really easy to put a casual outfit together with a few classic pieces that will see you through many seasons to come.

A white shirt is a mandatory item in any girls closet, but this year shirts of got bigger and baggier. Long gone are the fitted shirts we have seen in earlier trends and in it's place a boyfriend shirt. It's a brilliant way to look stylish in a slouchy and comfortable way. We love this shirt from Topshop, as it's so versatile. We have paired it with a pair of ripped jeans from River Island to give the whole look an edgy, grungy feel. We've gone for a super skinny fit, but if you're more comfortable in "mom" jeans, this will work just as well.

Every outfit isn't complete without the extras... the accessories. It's all about accessorizing! We have picked out a soft over sized faux leather bag from Topshop. The fabric of the bag is great for this look, a little textured and the softness gives the bag real character. it also has a long messenger strap, perfect for the day if you're planning on doing a heavy work out of retail therapy. If your sick of wearing heels and your feet are screaming for a day off, try a pair of black ankle boots. We've gone for another trusty item from Topshop with a brushed silver chain as embellishment. It gives the whole outfit a bit of glamour without having to put on the killer sling backs.

The most importnat thing about this attire is the jewellery. without it, the outfit looks unimaginative and dull. The shirt we've picked screams out for a chunky statement necklace. The Ariella Necklace from Adorning Ava is perfect for that, with the ornate black jewels contrasting against the crisp white shirt. The clear crystals and gun metal chain pulls the whole outfit together creating a chic, but edgy feel. If you're more of an earring kind of girl, these Leila Monochrome Hoop Earrings compliment the outfit perfectly and are a steal at £7. Our new Monochrome collection has just landed filled with an array of statement necklaces and ornate earrings that would pair perfectly with our chosen outfit.

Finally add a sleek black flick of eyeliner from Bobbi Brown. The gel is brilliant if you haven't got the steadiest of hands, as you can apply it with ease, even if you're in a rush. Finish with a hue of gray with your favourite nail polish, ours is Amarapura from Nars. That's it!


All our monochrome collection is available now, stay tuned to see a sneak peek of our next collection coming soon...
