Spring style report … figure out what you need to shop for this spring.

As if we don’t have enough on our plates trying to sort out what to wear from day to day, then a new season kicks in and those pesky designers send a whole new wave of trends down the runway which we need to get our heads round.

How’s a gal supposed to tell her feisty florals from her nautical stripes? Let alone hit the right tone with her take on the retro 70’s vibe? Fear not, the Notes From a Stylist team have come up with a spring style report to nail the top trends you need to be paying attention to. Sign up right here on our front page for this report, and future seasonal reports, to wend their way to your inbox.

Personally I’m super happy that stripes are a big hit – I’ve never met a nautical tee I didn’t like. But having lived through the 70’s the first time around, I think I will be stepping away from a full on investment in anything retro and maybe just cherry picking certain items from that trend… like this camel coloured coat I wore the other day to Portobello Road Market.

Which new spring trend are you psyched to get into?
