There are several major players in the colour palette for SS12, but one that can be adopted by most is Aquatic blue. This deep, rich blue is a great shade to enhance your wardrobe without being too dominating or overpowering.

This is a great colour to add to your Spring wardrobe as it can be worn throughout the season, early on whilst the weather is still a bit on the chilly side it can be worn with darker jeans or thicker tights, but towards the latter of the season can be worn in spring dresses with bare legs or light, loose vest tops. This colour has longevity and so should definitely make an appearance in your wardrobe.

Armani’s SS12 range which heavily featured Aquatic Blue.

Keep your eye open for satin dresses like the ones above appearing on the highstreet but also be on the look out for sheer blue blouses, which would be great item to buy for the office, that would work as a day to night piece. Here are some examples of highstreet items influenced by the Aquatic Blue trend.

This shirt from Zara is a great way to work the trend, the faded affect gives the whole look a softer feel. At £29.99 it’s easy on the purse strings too.

This HOBBS dress is in the sale(£125 from £139), and would work well with thicker tights for colder days or bare legs on warmer spring days.

Aquatic blue is a great trend to enhance your wardrobe, it could even be carried on into your Autumn Winter wardrobe with the right layering and accessories. You can combine this trend with other trends such as colour blocking (i.e. wearing the dress above) or pair it with the latest jeans and you will find yourself band on trend!

I’d love to hear if you’re buying into any of these trends and how you’re wearing them. Be sure to share your purchases on my facebook page!
