Shades of Spring

I did this last Autumn but it seems even more relevant in Spring. To look around at the colours and get some inspiration to get out of those dull winter drab greys and blacks.

When Spring comes around the colours that inspire me are always the same, and they look like this.

Pale pink blossoms and green leaves against a powder blue sky and daffodil heads bobbing in the breeze (or buried under snow!)

So, with the aid of Polyvore, I’ve been in search of some inspiration in Powder Blue, Blossom Pink, Pale Green and Daffodil Yellow.

    It’s such a pretty, feminine collection! I especially love both of the umbrellas; so much more interesting than the regulatory black.

    I always wondered why colour was limited to Spring collections. Winter is when we really need the pick me up!
