TRENDING RIGHT NOW, GOLD AND WHITE

This summers must have statement look is White and Gold. Tanned to perfection this look is defiatley a celebration of all things we love about summer. Have fun teaming clutches, jewellery and cool white with your tanned skin.I love a good trend- but the difficulty that comes with trends is with their default popularity, if you are not careful, you run the risk of wearing the same thing as everyone else. Que my favourite store Wolf & Badger and their selection of independent and original designers. Their eclectic collections ensure that you are the most unique trendy fashionista in every room. Making Wolf & Badger the one-stop shop for my trend wishlist.

The Rise of : THE STATEMENT SKIRT

Click for this seasons sexiest statement skirts.

Well I do love a good entrance, and what better way to arrive then a floaty chiffon skirt smoothly floating on a summer breeze. This summer must have item seems to be the skirt. Often over looked, this season skirts have received a much needed style over haul. A popular style is skirts with a raised hemline at the front offering a unique and interesting take on the classic maxi skirt, and, of course, a chance to show off those tanned legs whilst remaining classy. Chic Chiffon is also a great fabric in use right now, I love the movement it creates, granting an air of regality with every step- demanding a double take. 

1. Oscar De La Renta.

Came across this metallic number and fell in love. Check out the shimmer sway sparkle swagger.

Have a look at this multi levelled chiffon skirt by Georgia Hardinge via Wolf and Badger (www.wolfandbadger.com) . I love the trademark geometric design of the underskirt and the cooling effects of the choice in fabric colour, soothing like an ocean breeze.

Lace cut out sensation from Zara 2012 SS collection available online & in store. I love this because its easy to dress up or down from day to night.

Another from Zara, for that it statement print this look is the perfect item to an edge to your ensemble, team with a  cool blouse or light tank top. This vibrant skirt would go perfect with tanned legs.

Hope you enjoy this seasons greats of statement skirts. Now get shopping!

Love
