for when the days of 'glunge', the unattractive collaboration of the words 'grunge' and 'glamourous' to describe this seasons biggest trend, are over. When black and studs and spikes and leather and all of this season is over. I know I'm a bundle of contradictions because I do like that look. I'm starting to buy ALOT of black, and starting to believe it's the only shade that looks good. Now this is strange, because I used to have a wardrobe full of colour....but I love black dresses, chunky ankle boots, my Topshop OTK suede boots, lots of lacy texture...the vampy, gothic look that has been so huge this Winter. And I also love the other wintery trends like the heavy, chunky knitwear.
But I'm bored of it. So bored of it, and I can completely see where designers were coming from for their S/S 2010 collections. It didn't really take much genius to see that we're going to need a huge break from 10 shades of black and grey, and so will relish the thought of the sugar-sweet pastels that will lighten up our springtime steps.
I've just spotted the new H&M campaigns featuring Chanel Iman, and a couple collaborations of grey and pastel shades reminded me of just how much I'm longing for some girly, prettiness...yes flowers, yes chiffon and yes PINK!

Ah! I'm so in love with pastels and feminism. I never really got too into the whole grunge thing. I love all the runway photos :)
