Galactic

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Yep, still obsessed with all things galaxy...especially this sheer maxi skirt.  This particular print is just amazing!  I love the way Willabelle from Pale Division has paired hers with these Burberry-esque platforms.

They have a few similar styles on Romwe which I am considering getting for myself including this beautiful tulip shaped version.  The only this stopping me are those damn customs charges!

Space traveller and model JP takes a cosmic trip across the universe in one of the most recent and more radical offerings from California natives, Planet Blue.  Galaxy and space inspired prints seem to be everywhere at the moment, from Christopher Kane's original Resort collection all the way up to Black Milk's star spangled lycra creations- but I just can't get enough of them!

Festival Daze

I have a feeling it must be the combination over poring over countless festival inspired look books and the massive influx of Coachella fashion street snaps clogging up my Facebook feed but donning some denim shorts and shades and running away to a summer festival is looking like a really good idea right about now!  Too bad I didn't make Coachella again.  Maybe next year...

I stumbled across this Tumblr from US brand Sugarhigh + Lovestoned and was immediately addicted.  I're re-blogged some of my favourite images above but click through to see bohemian inspired goodness.

Free Love


Charlotte Free for Forever 21 in 'Love is Free' 

If it isn't everyone's favourite California dwelling, pastel haired pixie Charlotte Free.  See her pout and play for the camera in the video for Forever 21's Spring 12 campaign, 'Love is Free'.

Is there any stopping this girl's meteoric rise to pink glittering stardom?  Nope, doesn't seem like it!

Loving the ethereal vibe of this look book from Spanish Moss.  Model Marie Hamm wanders lonely through the desert landscape bedecked in standout pieces by Oz based label All That Remains, including that amazing flame red fringed jacket.

Paint Pastel Princess

Pastel hair must truly be the trend that will not die. For numerous seasons now it just seems to just have been gaining momentum. And with the collections for SS12 absolutely crammed full of candy coloured treats, this is one trend that doesn't seem to be disappearing any time soon.

In particular I'm really feeling the washed out candy floss pink which can be seen on the liked of blogger Hannah Metz and fashion photographer Lina Tesch-two girls from opposite ends of the fashion spectrum which just proves that this trend works whether you favour the rock chick look a la Lina or prefer to keep things a little more girlie like Miss Metz' vintage inspired ensembles.

The look can also be seen in several lookbooks for this season. Pink tips are how Topshop have interpreted the trend for their 'Pageant Princess' collection and several different pastel hues were applied to the models' hair in LF Stores festival inspired offerings.

Model Kori Richardson was seen with baby pink tips in her platinum locks was was Lily Donaldson on the cover of Numero Tokyo's April issue. And of course, one of my personal favourites Charlotte Free who's now infamous bubble-gum locks have arguably made her one of most sought after models of the moment, gracing numerous runways, editorials and campaigns from Vogue to Wildfox.

So what do you think?  Has this trend got you reaching for your paint set?  I know I'm tempted...
