#4 Tropical Blossom




Get ready for the spring by adding a touch of paradise to your wardrobe with vivid tropical-inspired pieces. Exotic flowers, wild birds and Amazonian prints will grace the front of must-have tunics, pyjama trousers and structured blazers. On the catwalks, designers took inspiration from across the globe. Joseph Altuzarra made a statement by pairing a fruit-puch blazer over a simple black top and trousers, Mary Katranzou opted for abstract colourful florals whilst Givenchy created a combination of orchid and bird of paradise patterns.This trend is all about adding a pop of colour to your wardrobe to make you stand out from the crowd. I'll be purchasing this luminescent floral print shirt from Warehouse, £55 to work the trend now. I'll opt for some brighter hues come Spring!

#3 Out of Africa




Say goodbye to the cool crisp winter months and hello to the bliss summer sunshine as fashion takes you on a safari with the Out of Africa trend. This season its all about prints from the wilderness from geometric-tribal patterns to vivid animal combinations. Models hit the runway in leopard swim suits layered with utilitarian jackets at Michael Kors, Donna Karen opted for Haiti inspired body con dresses whilst Oscar de la Renta chose soft tribal print pieces. This season its all about warm, earthy colours that will add a slight glow to your wardrobe. I'll begin the trend with this Animal Dip Dye Maxi Dress from Topshop, £65. I'll simply team it with a leather biker jacket and boots to carry me through to the spring!
