With the rise of all things 70s in the fashion industry, its easy to get lost in the vast array of prints, textures and cuts. I've lusted after flares and suede almost all summer, but they just havent been wearable enough for me to channel my inner 70s goddess (oh hiya 50 shades reference).. Enter every girls new BFF when it comes to transitional 70s trending .. the tie up / lace up .. its never been easier to let you're wardrobe nod to the ever so trendy flower power era. Keep it simple by  buying into one of these super easy to wear pieces in neutral 'go with everything' colours from white to camel. From highstreet to designer - this tiny piece of detailing will keep you right up to date!

London College Of Fashion ; street style photos

Shirt & tights - Primark
Skirt - Choies
Boots & Socks - Topshop

Bag - Monki (Via asos)
Leather jacket - Miss Selfridge

Hat - Newlook

A couple of weeks ago I was grabbed by a couple of girls from the London College of Fashion who were taking street style photographs and they were kind enough to send me a copy of them, lucky me for not needing to shoot this outfit myself. I have only just discovered the Choies website and I have another item I need to blog about ASAP - but I'll save that as a surprise ;) although waiting for the postage was long I could not be happier with the items I recieved. This oversized dog tooth print really screamed out at me, its so bold and looks great toned down with plainer garments such as the shirt I'm wearing here. As promised, I don't think these full a-line skirts will be leaving my body anytime soon .. along with my hat obsession for that matter!

Zara s/s '13 preview

Zara are always the go-to shop for wardrobe staples in my opinion. The quality of their clothes and bags is second to none, and although they always adhere to trends they always seem to make their own waves through statement and unusual pieces. These are some of the garments previewed for s/s '13. From the selection I've picked here, Zara are nailing the monochrome trend down to a t, with a mixture of graphic patterns and textures like the leather trousers on the far right, teamed with a statement neon jumper or accessory you can't go wrong! I'm very much looking to shopping their collection this summer!

What do you think of the Zara s/s '13 preview?
