SS15 PASTEL BLUE

. LAURA ASHLEY SS15 PASTEL BLUE COAT .

So rather ironically i’ve started to get into the spring  mindset in a big way, ironic of course because today in London it’s been snowing! Maybe I got a little ahead of myself? But it’s hard not to get excited for Spring when pastel blues and cropped cuts are starting to infiltrate my favourite stores new collections! I absolutely love winter and the garments and style of dressing that come with the season, but equally i’m always excited for a new season to hit once we’ve had a few months of styling the same kinda looks, and spring is always a real favourite of mine.

 This look is the first of my real spring transitional posts, and features a whole load of pastel blue which is always a sign of things to come (spring pastels are always a winner in my mind). The pastel blue jacket is a gorgeous piece from Laura Ashley’s new collection, having checked out their SS15 lookbook i’ve already fallen in love with a few of their spring trends, but mostly their collection of spring blue garments, and in particular this transitional textured coat. It’s not only a gorgeous colour but it’s super soft and cosy too!

I styled the coat this weekend whilst I was in bath staying with my sister, in fact it went perfectly with her Topshop peg leg pastel blue trousers which I absolutely love! My sisters and I are always borrowing eachothers clothes and these trousers which my sister picked up in January have been a garment i’ve had my eye on since! I wanted to style the trousers with a simple, but quite cool top, and this cream knitted vest from Zara (another new item of my sisters) was absolutely perfect. In fact, i really want it for myself now too!

Are you ready for spring dressing? What trends are catching your eye already?
