Wardrobe Essentials This Summer! [2013]

With summer almost here, revamping your wardrobe for this happy season seems like a perfect excuse to go on a shopping spree. But what exactly should you buy? As I mentioned before in this post, style and taste are very personal, but that doesn't mean you cannot take inspiration from someone or something else.

To help you make your shopping process easier, I put together a couple of items that I think are essential to every girls wardrobe for the summer time. 

Bustiers & Crop Tops

Graphic/Muscle Tees

High Waisted Shorts

Maxi Dresses

Gold Accessories 

(funny fact: I don't know when things changed, but gold used to be on the top of my dislike/hate list!)

Wedges & Sandals

Now, based on these items I also created a couple of outfits to show you how you can mix and match them.

Chloe Jade Green SS13 Shoe Collection!

Seems like this week is filled with the launch of amazing shoe collections. Today was the turn for Chloe Jade Green's Summer 13 Shoe Collection. Chloe is the daughter of Sir Philip Green, CEO of the retail giant Arcadia Group that includes Topshop and Dorothy Perkins. More information on Chloe and how she started can be found here.

"Drawing inspiration from dreamy summer days and hot, humid nights Chloe’s Summer 13 collection mixes pretty girly styles with bold statement designs. Intricate cutwork, etching and shimmering metals contrast with thorny spines and graphic shapes."

In the Spotlight: Kandee Shoes Pick 'N' Mix Collection

One of my all time favorite obsessions is shoes, which means I am always looking for new styles and (affordable) brands. Happy was I when I found out about this brand Kandee (until I saw the prices). They have the coolest & really colorful shoes. If you are not familiar with Kandee shoes, it is a UK based shoe label, inspired by designer Josh Wayman's childhood candy obsession. You can read more about Kandee shoes here.

Today they launched the new collection "Pick 'N' Mix, which is described as the following: Say 'Hello' to Mr Kandee's Summer 2013 Collection inspired by his childhood memories of his favourite Pick"N"Mix sweets. This innovative and creative collection focuses on high quality bespoke customised leathers and signature Mr Kandee embellishment!
