• Sugared almond pastels

The shops are now full of pretty pastel tones - sorbet, ice cream, dolly mixture colours. Mint, peach, sherbet lemon, pistachio, lilac and pink.... in delicate, lightweight fabrics...silk, chiffon and lace....It's probably the most dominant summer trend (and my favourite!)

I have often been a little wary of wearing animal print - well, too much of it, as in a dress or coat. Last winter, I wore my silk leopard print scarf now and again but having seen some stylish interpretations on the catwalk  I have become  addicted (still only accessories though!)........

The next few weeks will result in the usual dilemma - what to wear as the seasons change. There's always that tricky decision around this time - when shall I finally put away those summer clothes and wear the  new autumn looks? Even more difficult with the strange weather we're having - sun, rain, wind then sun all within one day sometimes within the hour!(miss b's tip - never leave home without a bobochic scarf or pashmina in your bag!!)  

Time to treat yourself to some key new season pieces..........

  

PRINTS - SPOTS, CIRCLES, SWIRLS......

Circles, swirls, polka dots and winter florals -the autumn/winter 2011-12 catwalks were a rich collage of print and pattern.
