Trend: Candy Crush

We are addicted to Candy Crush at R31, that's the game and the trend if you must know!

What better way to ease ourselves out of the wintery weather and into spring with a mix of powder blues, blush pink, pearly peach and lavender hues

Candy floss pastels have hit the catwalks for SS13; Burberry, Luella, Valentino and Versace being some of our favourite summery creations

Kelly and Taylor both showing us how to wear pastels for any glam occasion

Kate and Katy mixing the summery pastel shades with nude heels

Feel the Summer breeze with our Yumi boat print dress in coral or our minty fresh Yumi cardigan

Cover up with our new in floppy straw hat or accessorise with our arm candy 

To finish off your sugar sweet outfit we are loving these open toe nude Mel wedges aptly named Toffee Apple from our new favourite shoe website Mr Shoes

And just in case the rain doesn't stay away how about this gorgeous candy Bow-Tastic umbrella from our friends over at Love Umbrellas

Fresh In Yumi Print!

AW2012 is set to be awash with prints, many catwalk designers and high street retailers have shunned the usual experimentation of textures for prints this Winter. Every girl should own a special print jumper, blouse or dress, so look no further than Room31!

A good print can be figure enhancing, a veil for any flaws and also stacks of fun! Think outside of the box with the print of your choice and go for layers. Print jumpers look great with a waistcoat or a fabulous leather biker jacket, and don't forget to add a scarf too! 

At Room31 we have brand new print and knitwear designs lovingly created by Yumi. 

Yumi are a cutting edge, fashion forward brand that just love to have fun with kitschy cute prints. 

Owl print has been in abundance on the catwalks and on the high street including Burberry Prorsum's Autumn/Winter 2012 collection 

Celebrity fans include Kate Bosworth, who paired her Burberry owl sweater with a pencil skirt and ankle boots 

 I just love the  Enid Owl Print Sweater and Hayley Owl Print Dress - what could be cuter?

 If you prefer to layer your look then keep the base simple, your fave vest or tee and team with your trusted pair of denims, the cardigan will do all the talkin'! If you're a ' wrap it up ' kind of gal then you'll love the Poonam Glasses Print Cardigan.

This cute cardi was recently featured in Look magazine!

Prints can be so ladylike too, combine the print with gorgeous tailoring and Peter Pan collar and you've got the perfect mix. 

This royal blue Yumi number was recently seen on the catwalk at Liverpool Fashion LIVE

Grab your Mary Jane heels or toughen the look with biker boots for the wow factor.

Fashion Floozy & Room31.co.uk Joint Giveaway

So I have been talking and thinking about a give away for a long time so when  my favourite on-line clothing store asked if I wanted to team up with them for my give away I was super excited!

For those of you who follow me on Twitter or read my blog, you will already know my love for the gals at Room31. Their customer service is second to none and they are always going out of their way to help their customers. No customer is left unsatisfied in my opinion!

With brands like Brat & Suzie, House of Dereon and Love Umbrellas there is something for everyone! They have a great range of styles of this seasons accessories including the must have floppy hat and quirky moustache jewellery

Here is my top 10 wish list items from Room31

Firstly the must have floppy hat

This beauty weighs in at £15 and is THE perfect accessory for the Summer & Festival season

Next up is the wardrobe essential pencil skirt

This skirt is a steal at £5 yet looks classy and sophisticated! 

The next 2 items I would LOVE to own them both! Vero Moda sailor dress and anchor ring

This dress has been reduced to £20! That's £28 off the RRP! It's beautiful and would love awesome with this knuckle duster ring at only £5.99

Next on my list is this House of Dereon jumpsuit

I love this! It kind of looks like a stylish bin bag! Totally awesome! This number does with a massive price tag of £80 however USA50 will give you 50% off ALL House of Dereon until the end of July 

The next item I have been lusting over for some time is this dipped hem Vero Moda skirt modelled by A Rosie Outlook who recently reviewed the item

It's bold in canary yellow but elegant and 'swishy'! Great for festivals and the summer season. The price tag is £26 so easily affordable

My next lust item is another one by Vero Moda; this cropped lace bolero modelled by Girl Next Door

If you are like me I would wear this over a simple vest top as my love handles are just too wide! It's £28 but is a welcome change as most tops like this have no sleeves

The last 3 on my list are these must have accessories that I would love to add to my wardrobe

The Yumi bag is £15 and would go with pretty much everything 

The necklace is £8.99 and is just darling! It's very Cinderella!

Lunch With The Girls (better than sex?)

A recent survey revealed that many modern women derive just as much satisfaction from a meal with the girls as a night of passion with a man!

British sex and relationship expert Simone Bienne said: ‘If you go for lunch with your girlfriends, you produce the same chemical you would to orgasm. We feel relaxed, secure and happy – the same way we do in a relationship.

'Women don't feel the need to jump into a relationship because friendships have made being single all the more enjoyable'

The greater emphasis women now place on their chums has been called the Sex and the City effect, reflecting the TV series which centres around the lives of four single women.

So now there is less emphasis on finding a man; relax, purchase a new outfit and arrange lunch with the girls!

We've teamed wardrobe essentials Vero Moda coral shorts with polka dot bow blouse in royal blue  

Added chunky multicoloured platform wedges, Yumi shopper with bow and stud detail, and finished off with this cute geeky glasses chain necklace

We would love to hear if you agree that lunch with the girls is as good as or even better than sex?

The Agoraphobic Fashionista Daydreams with Room31.co.uk

                      

I absolutely love putting together outfits whether I've an event/destination in mind or not

So when the opportunity came up to put together a little dream outfit for Room31.co.uk I couldn't resist jumping online to parooze their prints, frills and thrills!

For my dream outfit I picked  a staple dress and then accessorised

This Miami Flamingo Print Short Sleeve Dress has been a firm favourite of mine for a while. 

It mixes this season's pastel trend with the print trend we all know and love absolutely brilliantly

A great staple dress that could be dressed up or down depending on the occasion

I teamed it with the Anais Bird & Postcard Print Shopper Bag yes, yes, I am a print fiend! This bag is glorious! And clashing prints make me so happy

I'd add the beautifully quaint Ethel Cuckoo Clock Necklace which hints slightly at the colours in the dress and bag

And I'd finish the whole outfit off with Room31.co.uk newest addition the Candy Stripe Wedges which would be a great addition to any Spring/Summer outfit

It took me all of Sunday night to piece together just 1 outfit because Room31 offer such great bargains and fantastic clothing

Their Sale section is quite frankly, unbelievable. I recently took full advantage of this AS did my mother! And I know we'll both be returning customers

Not only are the clothing, accessories and footwear a huge pull but the customer service both via email and Twitter is second to none

Have you already purchased from Room31.co.uk or are you popping your cherry with them soon? I'm pretty Room31 have something for everyone

Whether you like classic tunics, bold prints or floaty fabrics make it your one stop shop today!
