Clothes and Accessory picks for Spring 2012

These are a few of the favourite items that I’ve found whilst browsing different websites and their new Spring 2012 collections. I think that any of these pieces would be a great addition to a Spring wardrobe.

1.  River Island – Blue Lace Belted Skater Dress – £35
I love the colour of this dress, at the the moment River Island have them in about 4 or 5 different colours but this was my favourite of them all. I think it would go nicely with the Topshop blazer and the black platform shoes from Missguided.

2. Topshop – Drape Longline Blazer -£65
Tailored blazers seem to be popping up in almost every shop this season. Although this blazer is slightly more expensive than others it is a piece that can be worn with a variety of outfits, whether it is a dress or a chiffon top.

3. Ted Baker- TURACO Quilted Bowler Bag – £129
It was the colour of this bag that attracted me to it. I very rarely see any pale pastel coloured bags, this is definitely quite unique. Every time I look at it, it makes me think of spring days in the garden. This would definitely be something I would have to save up for though!

4. River Island – Gold Mesh Plait Waist Belt – £16
This would be a nice accessory to add to any skater style dress.

5. Marc Jacobs – Classic Marc Logo Band Bangle – £60
This is a classic piece of jewellery that would go with almost any outfit. I love some of the jewellery Marc Jacobs brings out, but like the Ted Baker bag, I think I’ll be saving for a while before I get it!

6. Missguided – Jovana Super High Suede Platform Shoes – £34.99
You can never go wrong with a pair of plain black platforms. They would look good worn with the pastel coloured skinny jeans or a dress.

7. Topshop – MOTO Bleach Splatter High Waist Hotpants – £30.00
Maybe save these ones until the sun starts to come out a little more. These shorts would look good with a casual t-shirt, or a more dressy blouse.

8. Forever 21 – Mustache Charm Necklace – £2.40
A really quirky and cute piece of jewellery that doesn’t break the bank.

9. Topshop – Chiffon Side Tuck Blouse – £34.00
I think this blouse would look lovely worn with some pastel coloured jeans like the ones from new look, or perhaps when it gets slightly warmer the hotpants from Topshop.

10 .New Look – Zip Pocket Skinny Jeans – £22.99
I love the colour of these jeans! They remind me of parma violets, pastel coloured things look like they’re going to be pretty popular this season. New Look have loads of pastel coloured jeans and shorts including these on their website.

11. Schuh – Women’s Pale Pink Converse Oxford Pink Trainers – £40
Converse are some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn, these particular ones are really summery and would look really good with a pair of denim shorts.

What do you think will be some of the key trends this season?
