It’s that time of the year again, yes finally ‘Springtime’ is here! Blooming blossoms and fresh shoots decorate the skylines and add a touch of magic and sparkle in the air.
With longer daylight hours, the bounce in our step is certainly more energetic and full of life. Adios to the long winter nights and hello to the great and glorious British Summer. A perfect time to de-clutter/update those unused or overlooked interiors and outdoor spaces, and show-off this season.
Spring/Summer 2014 runway has inspired a catalogue of varying hues consisting of a cool and calming palette to a myriad of interesting warm tones. A collection of playful pastels almost edible as macaroons, that are so versatile, that can be paired with neutrals, vivid and complimentary hues.
Bright and bold schemes are definitely trending this season, Cobalt/Dazzling blue continues to maintain a firm position, either in collaboration with a white or neutral background – or simply with the incorporation of accents and accessories to create some element of contrast and visual interest.
The revival of the vintage floral is definitely one of my favourite picks this Spring/Summer. Elegant and graceful stylized florals perfect in every respect for this season ahead.
Here’s some inspiration for the upcoming season.
