TREND: How to wear your spring coat?

The chancing of seasons acquires another clothing style and spring is probably the hardest season to dress in my opinion. In the morning it's often still freezing or close to freezing so you feel like putting on long pants, a blouse and a warm coat. But along the day the temperatures start rising and the outfit that seemed perfect a couple of hours earlier, is now annoying you. 

Luckily a lot of street style "people" have the right solution; don't put your coat on but put it on your shoulders. This gives a very easy yet very chic touch to your look. I really like this trend and I'm definitely going to try to fit it into one of my next oufit shoots. This trend is also perfect to spice up your work outfit for an after work event. What do you think about this trend? If you're still searching for a great coat, please check my suggestions below.

H&M Conscious exclusive collection

If there's one chain shop that really invests in conscious fashion, it's H&M. For some years now, they have a conscious collection available in their stores. Since about a year you can bring your old clothes to a collecting box and get a gift certificate of € 10,00.

If you think conscious fashion is boring, think again. On 10th April H&M will launch a normal and an exclusive conscious collection. The exclusive collection will introduce us to two new fabrics: biological leather and biological silk. H&M will also show us how you can wash your clothes on an environmental friendly basis.

The normal conscious collection will be available in all H&M stores and online. The exclusive collection will only be sold in 150 selected stores worldwide.

The face of the exclusive collection is Amber Valletta and the collection has a lot of boho and flamenco influences.

Underneath are some of my favorite looks. If you really want an extraordinary piece, go for the dark blue red carpet dress, which has already been worn by Miranda Kerr.

Fashion Trends spring 2014

Spring is right around the corner and this includes a cleaning up your closet and time for some new items. If you want to make your closet spring proof, keep these trends in mind.

Flower power

I don't think this trend needs any explanation. The first thing that pops into mind when you think about spring are of course flowers.

Shirt

A very classic and must-have piece for your wardrobe. A shirt is very versatile and it can by chic or sexy.

Water world

Remarkably a lot of designers used water prints in their collections. Hopefully the weather isn't going to be as wet as these outfits.
