Late to the party, but I finally managed to hit the city...
- I was surprised to see so many subdued colours. Zara was actually the only store that had bright colours and colour blocking going on. I am a bit sad about that, because I need a fuchsia, a lavender, cobalt blue and emerald cardi, but they're nowhere to be seen.
- Lots of pale blue, quite a lot of darker blue and light grey sweaters and cardis too, jeans in different shades (not so many denim shirts), lots of beige (sigh), and a few pastels, and animal print tops everywhere (a reasonable selection of red, blue and some green shoes though)
- A few stores had red bottoms paired with pink tops (Mango, e.g.) and I also saw a few coral tops and one shop was full of dusty pink.
- A lot less stripes than a few weeks ago, strange. Many, many jersey solid coloured scarves, nothing exciting on that front.
- Lots of basic trenches, mostly beige and black. Hardly any wide-legged pants, mainly skinnies, straight legs and bootcuts.
- Quite a few ditsy florals on tops and dresses. Skirts and dresses are still short (several inches above the knee). Leggings all around (luckily with those hemlines;-)
- A good selection of shoes with lower heels (yes!!), but hardly any wedge heels (sad face) and almost no knee-high Summer boots.
- Flared skirts in many shops too, not too many flared dresses yet.
Do you think we'll have to wait for the new silhouettes (midi skirts, flared dresses, flared pants etc.) until Autumn?
