Have you noticed I am kind of loving creating more fashion content here on the blog lately! As we touched down on Spring earlier this week I thought it was the perfect time to share my Spring fashion essentials wishlist and also tell you about an exciting fashion competition intu are currently running.
I have had my eye on some of these Spring fashion essentials since I watched the catwalk collections of London Fashion Week SS17. Now that the trends have finally arrived in-store I can shop at my leisure and start to build up my SS17 Capsule Wardrobe. My favourite thing about the SS17 fashion trends are how interchangeable they are. For instance ruffles and statement sleeves go hand-in-hand and this makes them so wearable. intu are currently running an amazing fashion competition which inspired this blog post. Let me tell you about it…

My Spring Fashion Essentials
Ruffles
Ruffles are a tough one. I have no idea how I am going to style them, but I so badly need them in my wardrobe for SS17. I actually picked up this Stripe ruffle sun dress before my recent vacation and it was pretty easy to wear. Ruffles and Spring just go together perfectly and these gingham ruffle cropped trousers are an absolute Spring essential. Don’t even question it! I also spotted some easy-to-wear ruffles on shoes like these ruffle trainers.
Statement Sleeves
I have wanted to try out statement sleeves ever since I met fellow London, Irish blogger Shannon from @CodingHandbags and she was rocking the most enviable statement sleeves. I admittedly spent our entire coffee break admiring her style. Now I most certainly have my eyes on a few statement sleeves to add to my own collection including this fluted sleeve top, double layer trapeze shirt with tie sleeve and this black chiffon tie flared sleeve top. I managed to squeeze in the best statement sleeves into my London Fashion Week 2 outfit for SS17 so I’m off to a good start.
Blush Pink
Blush pink is dominating instagram lately. I am not so lucky in that, blush pink does not go best with red hair. In any case I am lusting after certain blush pink items including these side-split wide leg trousers. I also think a knitted sweater is a serious Spring staple and this pink tie back plunge sweater ticks all the boxes. Finally, because I love to also incorporate SS17 trends into my work wardrobe I thought this shell pink crochet lace trim bardot top would make a nice little addition.
Embroidery
I am kind of obsessed with all things embroidered. Oh how I wish to add an embroidered item to my outfit every day and I am so glad this trend has finally made a comeback. My first London Fashion Week outfit for SS17 featured the best embroidered jumpsuit. Some embroidered items on my wishlist include this embroidered leather biker jacket which I would give anything for right now! Also I love seeing Aztec inspired fashion pop up in the high street. I wore this style when I was in Florida recently, quite similar to this aztec embroidered sun dress. When I showed you guys the dress over on Snapchat (Bec_Boop) so many of you were complimenting it and asking where it was from. Another embroidered item I fell in love with while comiling this wishlist was this black button embroidered denim mini skirt. It kind of takes me back to my school days but somehow feels a million times cooler!
All of the items in my SS17 wishlist are from intu’s key retailers and don’t forget you can win £1,000 in vouchers to spend and create your dream SS17 wardrobe – ENTER HERE (UK only)

Oh LOVING the sleeves!!
Can’t wait for a bit of sunshine… to be honest, it’s all about layers for me though, as I like to wear the same thing all year around, with a bit of layering 🙂
Thanks for the low down on Spring styles I’m not a big fan of ruffles but looking at this I might give it a try.
I’m loving the fluted sleeves I’m going to go online to find these and ❤️The embroidered pieces.
Bang on trend Bec Boop
Omg! I am SO excited for SS17! I could literally buy all of your picks..and hopefully I will if I win
Thanks for sharing!

thanks for this, great clothes
What a lovely selection of outfits I really like the stripped blouse with the bell sleeves.
Wow loving these collections…some lovely items and makes me in the mood for shopping 🙂 x
Have pinned those ruffle trainers, they’re gorgeous! ❤
I love the embroidary trend and that leather jacket is absolutely amazing x
This are some brilliant spring fashion essentials, I like the embroidery trend at the moment
Some great pieces for spring, love the statement sleeves trend 🙂
I love the look of the floral leather jacket. So pretty and a little ‘hippie’. xx
I am really loving all of the statement sleeves I am seeing this spring, they are so beautiful and feminine. I’m also a fan of the blush shade that is so on trend right now. Winning a 2017 wardrobe is going to be so fantastic for whoever wins this giveaway!
Fingers crossed I win! I could do with a wardrobe refresh and I love Intu! I just entered. I love blush pink x
I love the statement sleeves too they look so boohoo yet sassy and classy! I did try something on with statement sleeves the other day though and I looked ridiculous but I put that down to me being so short!
My essentials always tend to be a nice flowy cardi that keeps the chill at bay but isn’t too thick like a winter top.
I’m loving ruffles, sleeves, embroidery and all things dusky pink- this season is made for me!
I’m loving ruffles at the moment – perfect for dressing up jeans and a top. I’m leaving the cold shoulder phase to my eldest daughter for now though!
I want those embroidered ones! Of course blush shade outfits or should I say all of them? haha
