Candy coloured envy - Spring pastel trends


Not is it difficult enough being a student, making important decisions about the future, picking the university to study at for the next 3 years and preparing for knee shakingly difficult exams. Louis Vuitton decides to add another obstacle to a fashion concious, young woman's load and it comes in a range of perfectly pastel shades! Yes, its the Louis Vuitton, spring/summer collection 2012. The hard hitting, nail biting problem here is that no student (unless your extremely well endowed), is going to afford any of these pieces...

Despite the unforgiving and unaffordable price tag, the collection could only be described as perfection. So, bravo Mr. Marc Jacobs, thanks for once more forcing me to peer into my high street wardrobe and quiver with overwhelming dress envy! Crafted from silks, lace and layers upon layers of sheenful, transparent material,  these stunning retro-inspired pieces are obviously a serious investment and I'm making a pact with myself to one day be the proud owner of at least one item. 

At least I'm not alone, picking up this months issue of Glamour Magazine, I couldn't help but notice their similar obsession with the collection and after viewing some pictures of the unveiling event on-line, which looked like a cross between Swan Lake and Barbie, I could quite understand why myself and the rest of women kind had gone ever so lightly loopy in lemon... However sad it may be to know I have absolutely no chance in affording these gorgeous items, which are engraved into my fashion forward memory, I'm pretty thankful I'm not a designer obsessed, WAG queen (as I can't imagine that would be any part fun), but instead will just have to wait till cheaper, badly made copies come out on the high street. 

Over and out!
