Spring Fashion

With spring in the air we find ourselves thinking  – our clothes are drab and we can’t find anything to wear.  Sound familiar?  Well, if like us your thoughts turn to clothes shopping, why not take a look at Yard, Clothing and Lifestyle at Poundbury, Dorchester- one of our absolute favourite places to shop! 

Walk into the Yard and you are met with a smile and an offer of a coffee – so you immediately relax and, even if you are in a rush, make yourself find the time to take a good look at all the gorgeous clothes, accessories and gifts. 

We took a sneak peak at their latest Spring range and while we were there asked for some tips on what we should be wearing as the evenings get lighter and the days hopefully warmer.

What’s the big fashion trend for Spring 2012? 

Spring summer 12 is all about brights, with the newest shades being lime,  royal and coral. Print is still important, as are 'easy to wear' naturals. Shirts and jackets have made a big return, and skinny jeans and chinos remain the firm favourites.  High summer is all about maxi, with the maxi skirts and palatso  pants, wear these with super high wedges and a skinny top.
