Best of British
There’s no denying it; this year’s a BIG year for GB. With Wimbledon and Royal babies hitting the headlines, us Brits are definitely going to be busy bees in 2013. It’s time to don the red, white and blue bed linen and drink afternoon tea; we’re celebrating all things British!
Whether you’re heading to a UK music festival or plan to be a settee spectator at this summer’s sport, here’s how you can bring the best of British to your style.
Classic Beauty
The British are characteristically modest. Everyone’s ever so polite and only ever complains about the weather (apparently). But we have to agree, the idea of being understated does have an appeal when it comes to sprucing up your summer wardrobe.
Rather than rushing to buy the brightest, most gaudy combination you can lay your hands on, our advice is to try and be more modest in your choices, and opt for ‘classic beauty.’ This is the kind of style that’s effortless, but still manages to make you the belle of the ball.
Take this simple white chiffon dress for instance. It’s cute, elegant and perfect for any occasion. And quelle surprise, white is very much in this season! So we’ve no doubt that you’ll catch a few ladies heading to Wimbledon in this or a similar little number.
Alternatively, you could also add a touch of classic beauty to your bedroom with this gorgeous Sabina Bedspread. The options are endless!
English Rose
Being an ‘English Rose’ is never a bad thing. The expression inspires ideas of prettiness, beauty and generally all things lovely, so why not bring a flavour of floral to your summer selection? That’s right, English Rose can mean whatever you want it to be, and luckily flower prints are bang on trend!
Like this Grace Red Filled Cushion; a home accessory that guarantees to brighten up any home. Or alternatively, you could invest in this stunning flower detailed Faux Leather Handbag, another summer essential for 2013.
Bold and British
If you’re British and proud, then there’s always the opportunity to be bold in your choice of style. Take this cute Polka-Dot Silk Bandana for example; it screams festival chic, and can glam up a casual combo in an instant. Or when in doubt, sport the Union Jack! This statement Blue Union Jack Canvas is a definite way to show that your house is ready for the summer’s events.
