Our winter woolies have served us well over these past few months, but it's now time to give our wardrobes a bit of a spring clean and slip into something a little more colourful.
The High Street is full of beautifully bold (and totally wearable) designs at the moment that will take you all the way into high summer. So, here's a little edit of a few of my favourite pieces from River Island that I am completely in love with.
Culottes
I've always had a love / hate relationship with culottes but this season's styles are so sassy I just couldn't resist! With a tie waist and loose, wide legs, their a trouser style that suits all shapes and sizes. A perfect summer alternative if you don't want to flash too much flesh.
Green Printed Culottes, £35 |
Stripes
Stripes are back - and this season, they're all funked up! I love this hanky hem vest because it requires minimal effort but is still bold and interesting. With a V-neck front and key hole detail on the back, it's a little bit more than your average vest and can be dressed up or dressed down.

Florals
I have the same love of florals as a 1950's housewife but this gorgeous top is more than just a pretty fabric. With a beaded string-tie waist and cut-out shoulders, it's floaty and feminine while being bang on trend. Pair it with a pair of high-waisted wet look leggings and chunky boots for an edgy twist.
