As the heat starts seeping through our windows, we tend to lean towards soft pastel shades as a way to stay cool. Besides fruity Popsicles, this summer we are getting obsessed with blush tones that give a sophisticated yet chic look to our wardrobes. Looks such as the Givenchy one shown above is just one way how you can maintain this look, you can however corporate simple pieces to your regular outfits such as the jacket with a pair of white jeans, or beige pants with pastel colored summery tops. One way that designers are adding this trend to their regular pieces is by using lighter materials. Miu Miu for example incorporated beige linen to the usual leather tote that made an appearance a few years ago, and today, it is still considered trendy especially with the mix and match of texttured materials. It is always important to add a pop of color to a banal shade such as beige, and this could be done with accessories - if you are sticking to an all-beige outfit. Earrings such as the ones Tom Binns introduced could add some spice with summery shades such as red, orange and yellow. Don't be afraid to stick to neutral tones, with the right accessories, your outfit will never look boring!

Matthew Williamson for Bulgari







British designer Matthew Williamson collaborated with Bulgari to design handbags and clutches with jewel-inspired shapes and designs. Graduating with a degree in fashion and textiles from Central Saint Martins, Williamson adapted the gem-shaped kaleidoscope prints and patterns to the new collection. Using ruby magenta, sapphire blue and emerald green as the main colors in his palette Williamson gives the city girl her city bag for the day and a shiny clutch for a night out. The final collection will give the modern woman a 50's inspired feel with the vintage look of gems and leather!

Fall Trend

The newest trend this fall is the camel tone colors that we see mostly in safari's. The best way to apply this trend is with basic elements such as these pants by Sandro matched with a denim shirt - or any basic colored shirt such as white. The Mulberry handbag is one of the items that one needs in a wardrobe, a preppy yet suitable handbag for everyday. These Chloe booties are perfect for going to work or going out on the town. Don't be afraid to experiment with this trend because it is for sure going to last all season!
