It’s time to get back to the garden. Natural shapes and prints inspire fresh new looks for the season.

This seasons fashion trends are like no other I’ve experienced before. It was a sheer delight to be amidst such vibrant colours and floral prints during the bleak winter months & just knowing what was about to hit the rails was most exciting.

Spring 2014’s hottest look is no doubt about wearing one print on all items of clothing and accessories, or to clash several patterns in one outfit. If that seems too daring, then the third approach to this hot trend is to work one colour splashed on everything: shoes, bags, phone cover, the works. Too much is simply not enough. Team your neon florals and botanical blooms with edgy attitude and offbeat accessories, like metallic glam rock accessories, sky high sandals or chilled-out trainers.

On summer’s catwalk, powdery soft mints are either offset with stark nude tones or blended with sorbet colours, like candy floss pink, baby blue or lemon sherbet, best worn with plenty of confidence.

We’re big fans of big scarves - they’re cozy, warm and can completely transform a look. In this age of creativity and true expression of oneself, a simple scarf which can be worn in various different ways can create a fashion statement unique to you. Check out our website www.firthsboutique.com to see the many creative ways of wearing a scarf.

Yellow is a colour that immediately grabs your attention in the most direct way possible. Its bright, loud and instantly holds the eye. It’s the colour representative of spring and summer, of times festive and giddy. Yellow is also the coloured jersey worn by the race leader of the Tour De France which will be coming through Haworth on the 6th July! Exciting times ahead.....
