So fear not Fashionistas, you’ve still got time before you hit up Autumn 12’ trends but you definitely need to jump on/add to/increase your spring wardrobe edition and here’s a few “ investment pieces” from new season I highly recommend for purchasing after seeing whats hot for autumn at the weekend

So after stomping the stands and gaining slight buyers foot as I have now named it (you know… hint of throbbing usually brought on by a hard shopping trip) im off to enjoy a nice glass of something tonight and anticipate the next lot of “New” and “New-New” season-cant wait!

Oh and Happy Valentines from one Getmyfashionista to another!

LOV-ING-IT!

 Sandwich_ has offered up the floral pieces iconic for Spring 12’s trends (Erdem eat your heart out) with bright colours, crinkle fabrics and watercolour prints we cant get enough of this and neither can you by the look of things girlies ; )

Now, Masai has offered up the Stripe Pattern Staple- ever classic however the exposed zips, gorgeous jersey and slouch style sniffs at the Track & Field trend hot for 2012’s Spring & Autumn, just take a look & see

So what I’m saying girls is forget the snow, once Val day has been & gone we’re well on our way to sunshine…well, what a blooming marvellous way to spring forward than to invest in some Pattern Staple -as you can tell we’re loving flower prints but what about you?

Myrine & Me is one our newest labels launched last Autumn and you Getmyfashionistas just loved it!

Well I can certainly see why and this Spring collection is to be no exception!

 Right at the top of my fashion radar are these two gorge pieces

I love the crinkle fabric, the colour the style….there’s something really sport luxe about it (tipped to be a big trend this season and the next girlies ; )

 And at the other end of the scale is this beautiful dress. Easy jersey = easy dressing =easy fashionista styling, cant wait to rock this one with my Flatforms!

Have a sneaky peek girls..you know you want to..

 Goat Fashion creates luxury pieces using only the best materials and most subtle design details. And to make this adorable & lovable label even more accessable & affordable Goat Library was born last year promising the same adorable pieces with the same fit and trimmings as the mainline collection.

 New in  at Getmyfashion, we HQ-girls simply can’t pick a favourite. They are ALL longing-for-lust-haves and we can’t wait for payday!

 If you’re wanting to inject some cosmopolitan style into your wardrobe and you love classic pieces re-worked to give a contemporary feel then you definitely need to lust after this label.

We have all fallen head first into a fashion crush for the Duck-Egg Lisett blouse and the Gracy dress but as you can see all pieces so far are fab-u-lous!

Oh and ladies make sure you visit our New In to see what we’ve just added with pieces from Goat, Minkpink and Caroline oozing spring styling vibes you’ll definitely be whipping out your canvas pumps and shades in no time-ah I can smell the blossoms…almost : )

So obviously with all this healthy living chat (not accounting for the rose macaroon!) the conversation naturally falls to exercise and what we’re all trying, loving, hating or learning.

 We’ve all be quite the Getmyfashion go-getters for quite a while now what with Malin and her running, Gosia loves Spinning, Angela enjoys Pilates and I’m into Thai boxing- quite a varied bunch you might say and what with all the January fitness bunnies coming out we’re looking for what the new craze is-what gets you girls going?

 I’m personally aiming to do a race this year-I imagine nothing beats that feel good factor of achievement so bring it on!

Let us know what you girls are getting involved in this year or even what you’re looking to getting involved in-its great to hear what you girls get up to when you’re not browsing our New In ; )

It is a funny time of the year which goes from full-on spring in the air one day to miserable, wet & windy autumn-weather the next. I am therefore still enjoying my woolly jumpers, my knit dresses and other buys from the season we have just left behind.  And how can we be sure that there isn’t going to be another cold-snap before we can fully enjoy spring???

SO… despite a new year, it is not a bad thing to hunt for a sale-bargain. Many pieces are trans-seasonal and will see you through to summer. Pick the right pieces and they will even be good for next winter.

My top five get-it-before-it-goes pieces are as follows;

Details from left; Grey & cream tie shrug cardigan £48 by Yaya, Salt & Pepper Boyfriend Cardigan £78 by Part Two, Pink Dree cardigan £48 by Avoca, Black Harriet Jersey ruched dress £34 by Great Plains, Grey curtain call dress £48 by Avoca

Now as January and Feb are those quieter months where you’re essentially recovering from Christmas & New year and settling back into the swing of things this is THE perfect time to get ready for new season styling.

All the mags & trend reports (fashion bibles!) are out, you’re probably tired of (dare we say it…black!) and also feeling a bit BLAH so it really is time to start making room for pale wash colour collections-think of Rainbow drops and Bon-Bon sweets from your childhood. Deco details, Fifties USA (we heart Prada’s heart print already!) Blooming Blooms vs Sport Revolution, Africana & Heritage Paisley.

 NOW we know that all sounds a bit much to take in so girls I’ve got my “Stepping into Spring” list ready below. So slip out of those Onesies, switch those slippers for some mega mules, put your hair in a pony & get ready.

 1)      You’ve probably got some lovely new bits from Christmas and you are sure to be getting some even newer bits for Spring so what better time to for a clearout. WAIT! Don’t go clearout crazy and throw everything. Be precise. Have you worn it in the last six months? Is ticking any of this seasons trend list? (refer to your fashion bible) if your answer is “no” bag it up.

2)      Be Sale Savvy. Despite it being a winter sale you can almost definitely find things in the sale now that can be fashion forward come spring. For example from us we have:

Girlish embroidery? Yes

Satin? Yes

Soft spring shade? Yes

 3)      Set aside scissor time. A new year, a new season a new haircut! You’ll feel instantly fab and with being sale savvy those pennies saved can go towards your hair therapy!

4)      Make your look work for you. Pick out your favourite looks from the runway and adapt them for you. Loving that flower power peplum dress but cant quite do the school run in it? Pick a pretty flowerbud print girlish dress. Flirt with fifties and team a printed blouse with pedal pusher denim and insert Africana inspiration into your accessories.

 So let’s get spring ready girls-its waiting for us!
