Despite the fact that the Spring/ Summer 2014 shows took place nearly six months ago, it is hard to ignore the images and videos filtering back into your awareness in preparation for retail release. Every fashion magazine is fit to burst with images of the new season's garments, from the high end to the high street, and so now is the perfect time to fill your mind with a brand new wishlist.
I'm usually a little cynical with regards to the revival of pastel colours every Spring, year in year out. However, since so many of the shows featured a surprising amount of deep, darker tones, I will admit that I'm more than ready to embrace the pretty, confectionery coloured hues once more. Finally, we have seen a generous selection of jackets and coats for the new season - let's face it, we need them long into the new year, and personally I like the look of sugary sweet colours peeking out from under trusty denim jackets, and teamed with faithful dark jeans, as a segue into Summer dressing.
The collections of Mulberry, Temperley, Antipodium, John Galliano, Mary Katrantzou, Sophia Webster and Zac Posten all featured delightful pale pastels, but my absolute favourites for Spring/Summer have to be Burberry and Miu Miu. Admittedly, my appreciation for the reliable renewal of candy colours does largely lie in my relief that my signature mint green shade will still be readily available to purchase. Equally another ultimate favourite of mine, powder blue (one day I will own a vintage Cadillac in this shade), has also made an impact.
Thanks to Christmas and my recent 24th birthday, I have already started a budding collection of perfectly pale blue items including the following lovely items which I would thoroughly recommend:
