My Summer Essentials...

With the warm weather vastly approaching and summer wardrobes making their debut here is my look at the top trends that you won’t want to miss out on when you’re parting it up for summer 2012!

STYLE OBSESSION

NOVELTY T-SHIRTS

When it comes to the novelty trend, more is more. You don't need to go style bananas the crazy-yet-cool printed t-shirt is a brilliant way to be playful and fun this summer!

Lazy Oaf Mixed Fruit T-Shirt £35, 

ASOS T-Shirt With Spotty Winking Eye £20, Watermelon Skirt £45.

STYLE OBSESSION

TRIBAL TRENDSETTER

Amazon inspired tribal patterns & animal prints

(I love zebra!) raced down the runways of Marni, Burberry and Balenciaga managed to pimp up the Safari suit. A tribal motif dress is your easy option, but bright beadwork, fringing and crochet knits all have that cool, handcrafted vibe to them too. Animal print tees add a fierce touch, while fluoro highlight and bold accessories add a carefree feel to this look.

TOPSHOP Shorts £30,  Accessorize Santorini Stone Ring £14,
ASOS Aztec Backpack With Leather Straps £45.

STYLE OBSESSION

ICE CREAM PASTLES

Pale & Interesting is the way forwards this spring/summer with designers such as Louis Vuitton covering the runway with cotton candy colours. But fear not, you don’t need to spend your entire student loan on big designer, as there is plenty to keep you sweet on the high street!

Miss Selfridge Peach Zip Front Vest £25, River Island Candy stripe jean £45, 

ASOS Oversized Bowler Bag £36, ASOS Sweetie Stud Earrings £4 (bargin!)

Really Hope you like my top picks for the spring, these are the 3 main 'trends' I really like and I think are really fun and easy to wear everyday!

Fruity nail art

Hey everyone I just thought id share a quick post about my new nail art I've been trying out at home today and I must admit Im pretty pleased with myself and the end results. So basically I saw this pic of a girl who had hot pink nails with fruit attached and I know it sound mental but it looked really good!! (trust me)

So I decided to give it ago because it was just such an amazing summer look.
Here's the end result...

Fruity!

I tried to place the fruit on at first and got a bit over excited and it just looked a mess so on this pic I pretty much tried to replicate the whole look that the girls had used as it was a lot easier to copy placing of the fruit but next time Im defiantly going to experiment with some different ideas. (i didn't want to waste all the fruit at once)

Where did I get the fruit I here you say?? Well I searched high and low and remember seeing thing like this o my recent trip to the US and they have all sorts in target and their supermarkets, sadly over here in  the UK, not so much. I finally found a pack on trusty old E-bay for around £1.50 from china (=

Heres the pack...

Sorry about the pic quality, took it on my rather old phone.

There is so much to chose form on e-bay I could have easily bought loads (i partially like the candy version!) so for such a cheap price it easy to have a play around and experiment. Enjoy!

Love Holly
