This spring season, it’s all about florals and pretty prints, and as a really girly girl, I have to say that I’m absolutely loving them.

There are tonnes of really pretty little dresses in the shops already, and since February arrives this week, I think I’ll be making a few pretty purchases VERY soon.

Since this weather is so unpredictable though, I’ll be keeping my thick tights and cardies close to hand and layering though- better to be safe than sorry!

Even those who pride themselves on being totally individual when it comes to their dress sense have a sneaky peek at somebody else’s style occasionally- it’s only natural.

For the vast majority of people, their style icon is a celebrity or somebody who’s in the public eye.

Personally for me, I think that Victoria Beckham is always someone to look to for style inspiration- she always looks amazing and never gets it wrong.

Although body con dresses look amazing, they’re not for everyone and aren’t exactly the most forgiving of styles.

Skater dresses are the absolute opposite though, and fit and flare in all of the right places. Plus, as they can be dressed up or dressed down, you can wear them day or night and get lots of wear out of them.

There are loads of cute designs out there at the moment, so if you’ve not got in on the act yet, get your skates on!

This doesn’t mean covering up in boring jeans and a t shirt every day- it just means looking trendy rather than tarty!

As a rule, for a night out it should be legs or cleavage- never both! Some ladies don’t seem to have got the knack of this though and insist on dressing as though they work in the local strip joint in the middle of the day! Not a good look.

Cringe is not the word!!

Compared to the last couple of winters, we seem to have got off very lightly, so I’ve been slowly packing out the winter woollies and bringing out the floral prints. BAD MOVE!!

Over the past couple of days, the weather has reverted back to its icy worse- which was a massive shock to the system in a dress and opaque tights this morning.

Looks like I’ll be rummaging around in the wardrobe for something warmer tomorrow!

In my humble opinion, sequinned dresses look a bi out of place during the summer months, even for a night out.

When it comes to hitting all those Christmas parties though, there are few better outfit choices than a sequinned dress, and these days you can find them in all sorts of colours, styles and lengths.

ASOS have some fab little sequinned dresses in at the moment, many of which are under £30 and therefore a complete bargain- grab one before everyone else does!

When lace dresses first hit the High Street, EVERYONE was wearing them, and if there’s one thing which I refuse to do when I’m on a night out, it’s blend in with the crowd.

Even though there are now various different types of lace dresses around, I think they look really dated, and no matter how many times ASOS try and shove their new lace additions under my nose, I refuse to give in!!

So, from my point of view, lace dresses are a serious NAY!

It seems the Essex look is a really popular one too, as shortly after going live, Amy’s website went into complete meltdown and crashed. Who would’ve thought it?!

Unlike some other celebrity clothing lines (mentioning no names, Victoria Beckham) Amy’s pieces are really affordable, so fans of Ms Childs can grab a slice of her style without giving the credit card a hammering.

Now all fans need to do is invest in the obligatory orange tan…or not!!

Every single pair of boots which I try on (and I’m not exagerating here) looks like I’m wearing wellies and they just look absolutely ridiculous!

Although some boots do look a bit better when my skinny jeans are tucked into them, they still look stupidly big, and since I want boots which I can wear with skirts and shorts, it’s just not good enough!!!

I really don’t understand why boots don’t come in different leg widths- it’s discrimination if you ask me (and don’t tell me to put some meat on my bones either!)

Coloured jeans are all the rage this season, and the brill news is that they are just as versatile as their navy counterparts.

Jeans in colourful red, greens, yellows- in fact in just every colour imaginable- can be found in the shops at the minute, and wherever you plan to wear them they’re guaranteed to look great.
