Posted - 19 May 2010 from The Mall at Cribbs CausewayJune's just got to getClogsPut your best foot forward for the must-have shoe of the summer - the humble clog. After Lagerfeld sent his Chanel models down the catwalk in clogs and fashionista Alexa Chung appeared on the front cover of Vogue in a pair by Chloe, it was only a matter of time before this chunky shoe with its wooden heel made it into our favourite shoe emporia here at The Mall. Despite our initial scepticism, we're now embracing the clog and can be seen - and heard - clip-clopping around The Mall. Wear them barefoot with jeans or contrast their heaviness with something light and frothy. Be warned though, you won't be able to make a quiet entrance in these little darlings!
FloralsYes florals are back, again! They never really go away but after the coldest winter for years, it's no wonder we're loving the floral trend this summer. It feels light and feminine and holds the promise of warmer days and nights. Flower power is everywhere in stores - on coats, dresses, tops, bags and brooches. I tell you, we've more flowers here than Chelsea Flower Show! So what do we go for? Big blowsy statement flowers or little ditsy prints? Just remember the rule of thumb - the bigger you are, the smaller the print. Simple! If after all that, you're thinking florals really aren't your thing, just give a little nod to the trend with a pretty floral bag. Or fix two or three flower corsages together and wear them in your hair.
