New year, new you?

It's a brand new year people, which means there's little of winter left until spring! So no matter how gorgeous those boots and coats are, it's time to start saving for a jaw-dropping spring/summer wardrobe.  So here are some of my favourite spring/summer prints and styles to look out for this season straight from the catwalk with the approval of Vogue!

1. Firstly, there has been an underwater theme swimming down the catwalk, with Giorgio Armani, Givenchy, Versace, Alexander Mcqueen, and even Chanel getting in on the action. Look out for seashells and seacreatures!

2. Another outgoing print to look out for in spring is cars and other vehicles. The rule of thumb is three different cars make the trend. This beautiful Prada number ticks that box.


3. Candy pastel pallettes are on this years list yet again, with popular lacy mint green and powder pink dresses from Louis Vuitton that look good enough to eat.


4. A rare new idea has evolved from the catwalk called Flatforms. Platform shoes that are flat and can be transformed into "height in sandals". We saw them on brogues earlier in 2011 but they have now been created into a whole new range of shoe. There are some fabulous Nicholas Kirkwood for Pollini flatforms with the same colours and effects of sandals on a weaved two colour platform.


5. Fruit and other foods. This theme has been pondering about the catwalk for a while but it's not until recently that it has finally taken a huge leap with designers such as Dolce and Gabbana playing with their food. Not only has this print been shown on clothing but chilli pepper and raw pasta earrings have also made an entrance
