Pastels!

My favourite colours are pastels and I think that pastels are the perfect colours for spring and summer. They are cute and girly and add colour to outfits. What's great about pastels is that you can get away with having a full outfit of different pastel colours because they are so subtle. I've been looking around and picked out some cute pastel pieces that I think would be great for this summer.

This first item is a beautiful coraly/pastely pink bag. It is a Steve Madden bag and is from New Look. I think the satchel style works perfectly with the pink and this would look great with so many outfits, it is a very versatile bag.

This dress is available from Topshop. It is a lovely light blue colour with off white spots. It's very girly and feminine and the spots change it up a bit rather than a plain blue dress. This dress would match well with the Steve Madden bag as shown before. Currently this dress is on sale for £18 pounds rather than £32 which is a great deal for Topshop which is great quality and perfect fit

I then was shopping around and found an American website called LuLus. I'm not sure where they ship to but I found some great pastel items!

The first item from LuLu's are these mint green pumps. From the photo they look almost like vans. I love mint green as it is very girly and pumps are perfect as they go with many outfits.

Continuing with the mint green is this heart sweater. This item is extremely feminine because of the colours and the cute heart elbow patches. The white stands out against the green and spices the plain jumper up a bit which looks great.
 

Even more mint green! In spring and summer you can't go wrong with a cute dress and this one is a must have even if your not a dress person. First of all it cinches in at the waist which is very flattering. The the cream lace adds a girly touch to it. Also the collar on this dress makes it girly and sophisticated whilst remaining casual. This makes it very wearable as you can wear it smart or casual.

The final piece from LuLu's is the gorgeous ombré dress. What makes this such a great item is that it combines two trends in one with the pastels and the ombré. This is one of the cutest dress I have ever seen. The pink and lilac work so well together and the final section of white with a purple hint finishes the dress off perfectly. As well as the ombré and pastels, the top section is thick lace. Lace and cutouts are very popular at the moment and it adds even more girliness. The skirt of the dress is made from a light chiffon material so it can be worn on very hot days as it was a lot of air and space.

Unfortunately this picture does not show what the skirt looks like properly. This skirt from miss Selfridge is actually an embossed skirt. Embossed material is becoming very popular lately but it tends to be in plain black or white. This pretty pink skirt is girly yet sophisticated and would look great for a meal out or just shopping in town. Again it is one of those pieces that can be dressed up and down although I would personally recommend it be worn more for night outs during the summer months.

I am in love with Miss Selfridge at the moment. They have been selling a lot of girly items which is perfect for me! This skirt is stunning! It is a simple skirt but is not too boring and flat. The colour would be great for colour blocking and is Definitely a summer colour because it is such a bright pink. This is a more casual item yet could be worn formally with accessories and perhaps a blazer.

This skirt is just so perfect! It is a very pastely pink. It is from River Island. River Island have a great range of skater skirts with different patterns and colours. This is so simple and would look great in summer because it's so laid back and casual and not showy at all. The colour and style makes it perfect and a must have for all those girly girls like me!

My final pick are these pale yellow jeans also from River Island. These jeans are also available in other colours such as peach but I chose these yellow ones because yellow is the best colour for spring and summer because it is so happy and bouncy and,with these jeans, very chilled.
