A fashion feeling

Sorry I've been a bit quiet on the post front lately, I've been drowning in uni work! I say that sat surrounded by fashion history books but we can look over that!

Her use of crazy prints on structured clothing, dresses and shirts that scream with prints and colour are perfect for anybody's spring wardrobe! Although you may think you need some serious guts to wear such outrageous prints I think that anybody packing a print is going to be a hit this season! And looking at these designs, there's definitely something about Mary. xoxo
