A Splash of Summer

Just spotted this on Emily O'Brien's post on myfashionlife.com. Seen in New York this week launching her new fragrance, Jennifer Aniston wore a bright orange Vivienne Westwood dress and nude shoes. She looked sun-kissed and stunning in a splash of colour, complementing her Californian tan and newly blonde hair.

Wearing a bit of bight orange is up there with splash of sunshine yellow or sea-like turquoise. Look what we have here for you in a bright, bold summery mood at Ocabini: cashmere scarves in mandarin orange and emerald aqua and a super-lemon tank top in merino.

Lace, Glorious Lace!

'You don't have to be a bride to wear lace this summer', so say the Telegraph fashion pages. Kate's Sarah Burton wedding dress has reaffirmed lace's status as fashion royal. Like many trends that span multiple seasons, it has evolved, taking on a more classic look, with quality antique-style lace being the key. Think romantic and sensual.

Coloured lace, even acid neons colours, along with classic black are on offer along with must have additions to your 2011 wardrobe: antique whites and nudes.

The spring runways were packed with a wide variety of lace from bohemian styles through to lingerie inspiration and even ballet influences like those by Erdem, so whatever your style, you’re sure to find a way to encompass the lace trend into your wardrobe for 2011.

Ocabini has a cashmere and silk mix scarf with an antique lace print in classic ebony on romantic ivory. Find it here: Ocabini.com
