Springs top 5 hottest colours (each one is a seperate post)

This spring (2011) is going to be all about those colourful pastels. Bold yet beutiful, shy yet well pastely. They are perfect for layering and addingother things too. Plus you will probably realise that you have these colours all ready in your wardrobe ready for a revamping. so read on and hope you like, just to point out i didnt decide on the colours the runway did. ok


first up is pink ,
 if hot pink not your style go for a pastel or champagne shade for a more formal and classy feel)

I added a pink square incase you wern't sure what i was on about, thats quite easy to do i totally understand. Ok so, pink is going to be big this spring so bring out those belts or top you didnt think you could wear and rock them with the pastels that will follow. Thats what this spring is all about.

Pink outfit , one idea for the day: (casual)







cardigan:
vest top:
bangles:
Socks
converse

Pink outfit 2 for a night time approach:
 














shoes:

headband:


There are so many ways that you can wear this fabulous colour, it doesnt have to be super girly or tacky or bright. Pink pastels layered under soemthing or a pretty prom style dress can look just as sheek and on trend. The other colours will follow but because they are so long it will be easier to do them seperate. sorry for the extra scrolling time.

These bags are literally in the hands of every celebrity (ok so i exagerate a little, ive told you a milion times not to exagerate and now look at me) But they are very  populare amongst the stars, so i recommend getting your hands on a clutch bga like these then you can have a piece of the actiuon to. Ive settled for a long strapped greeny grey snake bag/puch. its clutched sized with a metalic button fastening thing. I got it off my auntie ad didnt lik it at first but after writing this it is officially in fashion. yeah baby!. i took some pictures (below): (and yes ... i am that cool) so below is my bag:


and yes that is my bedroom floor. I loterally rant to my bedroom to take the pics with my dads camera (i mean glee started 10 mins ago ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) but yh its ok im calm.

Where can you get these items? well i dont know wher emines from but heres a couple of examples:

Abbey lee kershaw gone platinum!


Abbey lee kershaw has swopped her natural brown locks for platinum blond ones, she also now has a bob. This runway model got her hair done at the 8th september (i know im late sorry) in the Orlo, Orlanda Pita’s salon. It took a whopping 7 hours to complete the hair style and the model was quoted to say "it was a long day". Abbey before (see left) had long flowing brown locks and had never dyed her hair. When asked she said she had never dyed her hair before and it was time for a change. Another source confirms she dyed it too suite the needs of eyewear designer tom ford. She was photographed wearing  a number of his designs including over sized black ones (like the popular 3d glasses you get from the cinema, don't pretend you dont know what im talking about) Abbey with the hair dye(right) is also sporting a rather short bob, dont get me wrong she pulls it off, i mean she is a supermodel and all but i can't help feeling sorry for her old hair. It was so natural. But the platinum does make a statement ill give her that and i guess thats what you want if your a model? i wouldnt know i meanhave you seen me latley? i got no chance.

H&M's new concious collection

When?
It is set to be released on april the 14th 2011 so get your running shoes on and your coats by the door.

What?
The new concious collection is all about minimilism and the environment. The colleciton is made from enviromentally friendly materials and other sustainable sources such as cotton and recyled polyester. The collection comes in a variety of shades of white, perfect for a subtle yet suitable outfit in the spring. Plus white is going to be IN IN IN so yh, ive never been a white fan but everyone's got to start somewhere right? and this collection is really cute. The style features tailored lines with a hippie spring influence. Flowing hems and layers with a sheek twist. Its all very exciting really. Its just so adorable i wanna eat it all up, i mean that in the least weird way possible.
How?
well they like deisgned them and then sew them :/ and stuff.

To sum up
So H&M are trying to tell us that spring is going to be minimilistic chic in pastels, whites but with a hint of unique style. ok girls we can do this, and boys.




a great magazine, ive never actually bought it but it looks awesome :)
