Very S/S 2012
Yesterday I had the privilege to travel down to London to view Very's Spring/Summer 2012 collection.
The items above are from Very's Love Label, featuring bright colours and delicate fabrics this collection is the epitome of Spring/Summer. Other favourites from Very this year include graphic tropical prints, ditsy florals and vibrant Hawaiian patterns.
Fearne Cotton's collection sticks with her signature vintage style heading towards the 1970's era, while Holly Willoughby's SS12 collection is glamorous encapsulating the Hollywood pin up look. Psychedelic prints inspire Diana Vickers collection with pop art graphics and retro colours.
Personally I'm not usually one for such a bright wardrobe but I do love soft fabrics, and dainty patterns so I was excited to see what Very have to offer this year. It was a great event and a great experience to get to know the team at Very better. I'd like to thank Natasha at Isobar Social for inviting me.
The day continued with plenty of cupcakes and canapes, and the opportunity to chat to lots of lovely bloggers. And also to speak to Suzi from StyleSuzi who blogs for Very. She talked us individually through the collection and took the time to get to know everyone. I also got to meet Becca, Kavita, Sharmin, Sophie and Jen who were all lovely and hope to meet them again soon.
And finally from the collection we each had the chance to take home a gift of our choice, and here's mine. I chose these gorgeous leopard print loafers as A leaopard print is always a fave of mine and B you can never have too many pairs of loafers. The print of the top caught my eye straight away and I'm glad I picked it, I can team it with leather shorts or a high waisted skirt and tights, or keep casual as a tunic with leggings. I'm sure both will be featured in an outfit post soon.
All that was left to do was say our goodbye's and stock up on sweets! They had an old school Woolworth's pick 'n' mix stand and we all went a bit mad, well Becca did ;) but I'm very grateful she packed my sweet bag high for the train home!
Oh and some of us may be featured on a video of the event which should be up on Very's blog soon so if it's not too embarrassing I may show you all haha.
