OOTD // PASTEL PREVIEW

No Comments »


Pastels are a common recurrence every season, with candy shades appearing across stores each spring/summer, and muted dusky tones for autumn/winter. SS15 is no different, with designers such as Timo Weiland, Valentino and Badgley Mischka all hopping on the pastel colour trend. Our next lot of exclusive designs will be landing on our website in early March, but if you can't wait that long we've got a sneak peek for you today!


Peach has to be one of our favourite summer colours. It works wonders for your complexion, no matter what your skin tone, giving you a dewy glow. Our Jania Floral Jewel Necklace packs a peachy punch with hints of lemon yellow and mint green to create a contrast. We love how the chunky gold chain offsets against the pretty jewels to give your neckline some edge.

We found this super feminine peach sheer textured midi skirt from River Island as a perfect colour match, to take you from garden party to evening cocktails by the beach! Bardot style tops aren't expected to fall off the fashion radar any time soon, so be sure to snatch up this pale yellow ribbed crop from New Look. Keep your shoes simple, like these white heeled sandals with gold buckle detail from River Island. They won't overpower the rest of your ensemble, but the gold detail will tie them in effortlessly.

To make your skin glow even more, complement your tan with a light gold eyeliner to accent the inner corners of your eyes - it'll also make them appear bigger and brighter! Highlight your cheekbones with a multi-tonal bronzer that has a slight shimmer to it, and brush on a classic light nude nail polish to complete the look.

Keep your eyes peeled on our website for new styles - we've got plenty more landing with us over the next few weeks!

OOTD // NEW YEAR, NEW SEASON

No Comments »

Happy New Year everyone! Anybody else already given up on their resolution!? Ah well there's always next year!

With the new year comes new seasons and a chock load of new trends. Keeping up with all of them can be tricky, particularly if you're on a budget. Over the next couple of weeks we're going to show you how you can take transitional pieces from AW14 and style them for SS15, plus we'll be giving you an exclusive sneak peek at our SS15 styles coming soon!


The Lydia Jewel Encrusted Collar - as seen in Look magazine - has been a bestseller at Adorning Ava, and we're down to our last few pieces so get yours before they're gone! Heavily adorned with matte beads, sparkling crystals and creamy pearls, it's the perfect transitional statement necklace. Orange is set to be massive in SS15, so you'd be wise to stock up on whatever orange pieces you can find now before everyone else is after them!

You can't go far wrong with a maxi skirt for spring/summer. They ooze effortless style, and if you like to keep your legs covered but don't want to get too hot, they're an ideal garment to rush about in. Look for a light grey one to wear with anything and everything. We've paired ours up with a racer front white crop vest from River Island - it's certain to make your summer tan really stand out!

We love to match our make up with our accessories to really bring out the colours of the jewels. This Flare shade by Illamasqua is almost identical in colour to the Lydia Collar and will last you all day no matter how crazy your day is!

Like most retailers (including us!), Debenhams have a massive sale on right now. These bright orange sandals are seriously discounted and much better than flip flops if you're planning on walking around the shops for a while.

I'm a sucker for a clutch bag, but this grey mini satchel is too good to ignore! Light grey can be easily matched with any outfit, and the gold chain and buckle accents add an extra something to the design. River Island also make this bag in black if grey just isn't your thing.

Finally, add your favourite pair of sunnies for some added cool factor. We adore our Round Tortoise Shell Sunglasses with a vintage feel and flattering shape. Plus they're in the sale right now for £3.99! Bargain!

Don't forget to check back for more ideas on transitional pieces and an exclusive preview at our SS15 collection.

Happy New Year!
