The Trends So Far, Summer 2016

Such is the mercurial nature of fashion, it can often be difficult to stay in touch with the fast paced trends we see come and go each year. In this ever-changing industry, I’ve compiled a few fashion trends that look set to remain for summer and beyond. Jeans are more distressed than ever 2016 has seen distressed jeans return with a vengeance. Celebrities and models on the catwalks are embracing the rips and tears in their denim and it has become one of the biggest trends this year. If you’ve got any old jeans tucked away, then dig them out and…

Summer Accessory Essentials

We are in the midst of summer, which means only one thing, festival season is also upon us! If you want to accessorise with some great new accessories to stand out from the crowd, then take a look at some of our suggestions for Summer 2016.

I’m sort of addicted to sunglasses as you may have noticed, and I love the original and /or retro styles when I can get them. I’ve been sporting some vintage ‘big eyed’ pink sunnies from the 80s for much of the summer, but the visibility in them is pretty terrible.
