PASTEL TAKE OVER A/W 13

Heeeeeyyyy babyloves! Another way overdue blog post, apologies for how long I haven’t blogged for, working 7 days a week and studying definitely got the better of me. So, where I have been … Well  I’ve started my new job at House of Fraser as well as working at my current job and I’m also at London School of Styling undertaking a fashion styling course which I absolutely love so as you can imagine I have been extremely busy and haven't given my social life and blog much TLC.

  Candy floss pink
So as you all may have noticed trending this A/W is pastels in particular coats which are noticeably over sized with a boyish silhouette. The most popular colour is candy floss pink especially in coats personally I'm not a fan of the colour pink in general, however I have found some beautiful pieces on the high st following this trend. This trend was one of the styling briefs I was assigned to do from London School Of Styling a few weeks ago  ‘Pastel Hitchcock’ inspired by Alfred Hitchcock. I found that shopping for this brief was quite difficult as I struggled to find complete outfits with the exact shade. I spent the whole day in Birmingham city centre and out out of all the shops on the high st Topshop was the best shop for this trend so if anybody is shopping for anything of fhe pastel shade I recommend Topshop 100%. Here are some of the pieces I got hold of all from the High St.

How I Wear Pastels...
   As I've already said before I'm a little bit obsessive with one tone outfits as I think the overall look adds so much more sophistication to any outfit.  Mint Green and Powder Blue are the shades I go for when it come to wearing pastels as these shades I find suit and compliment my dark complexion rather than pinks and yellows as they seem to make my skin complexion seem a lot darker than what it actually is. I  have blogged these outfits before so if you want to know about the outfits in more detail  you can find them in posts Pastel Me and Milan OOTD2.
