Orange Blossom Special - Amy

Well if there is print for this AW, this is it for me! I fell absolutely head over heels in love with it the minute I lay my little eyes on it and with my favourite pink and orange colour combination, bell sleeves and high neck this top could have been made just for me - no wonder it's been the base for all my favourite outfits this season! Modernised retro florals are all the rage this season (and every season for TSOP) so we couldn't wait to show you two ways to wear this beaut!

Who can believe we're still in that awkward in-betweeny stage this far into October? I'm still living by light layering and this outfit is no exception! I've worn the blouse over a short sleeved shirt dress (my constant white collar is back everyone, sorry!) but instead of option for outerwear, I've opened up my cord shirt dress and worn it over the top for an extra texture!

What do you think of this print? Do you adore it as much as we do?!

Florals are my all time favourite print all year long, but they are great to brighten up those dull autumnal days and still feel that hint of summer. I have been absolutely swooning over everything in Zara recently and getting super excited about AW15. 

I picked up this amazing bell sleeve dress last week and also fell in love with the embroidered suede waistcoat which works so perfectly over it. This is one of my favourite outfits at the moment and perfect for the weather with wintery boots. I accessorised the look with my favourite Free People hat and white cut out clutch from Boohoo. I love the 70s influence running throughout with the bell sleeves and waistcoat and it's such an easy wear. 

What prints are you loving for AW15?

Black-based florals are my all time fave and just another massive reason why I loveee Autumn/Winter wardrobes way more than summer! Folky florals are in abundance this season (Topshop Unique, hello) from delicate wild flowers to ditsy prints there's something for everyone around at the moment

It's also the season for layerrrrs! and this frilled blouse works underneath everything! With it it's little bow too it just adds so much interest to 'just a dress' and despite being years old looks really similar to a lot of AW15 catwalk collections. As we're still in transitional zone though I did go for a light washed denim jacket to keep that summery element alive!

Have you dug your dark florals out for winter yet?

Spring has well and truly sprung and what better way to celebrate than with florals, groundbreaking! If you saw Amy's post yesterday you would of read about our influence for this post which was a feature in Look Magazine a few weeks ago on styling florals with stripes. We absolutely LOVED this feature and wanted to try it ourselves!

Every girl has stripes and florals in there wardrobe of some sort so it's an easy trick to jazz up your Spring ensembles. I am Swooning over this Topshop jumpsuit which has such a vintage feel to it and it worked perfectly with a simple striped roll neck underneath. I accessorised the outfit with a bright striped clutch with statement necklace. Not forgetting to finish of with my favourite Orla Kiely heels! 

Why don't you try mixing up these 2 statement prints and have some fun this Spring! We would love to see the results @twoshoesonepair

Florals and Stripes - two of the most staple prints in any girls wardrobe but sometimes they can be a little tricky to work into on-trend looks. We are constantly on the look out to find inspiring and updated ways to wear both of these classics and we were completely wow-ed by an editoral in Look a couple of weeks ago when they paired the unlikely duo together and it worked perfectly.

The key to nailing this look is to firstly find a fresh looking floral. This beautiful daisy print with retro yellow/orange-y vibes actually has that exact SS15 feel but not like anything else we've seen on the high street at the moment. I went for the blouse (not quite brave enough to go for the jumpsuit!) and continued the modern/vintage theme with this zip up, scuba skirt that matched the colour palette nicely to the whole outfit wasn't too wild. I then slipped the stripes in with one of my favourite shirts.

What do you think of this daring pattern clash?

The 2nd part of my Transitional Florals post is on the lighter shades of floral prints are reminding myself that there is still some summer left! Weddings, garden parties and festivals are still happening until at least mid september so we still have time for some summery floral shades before AW.

I have been finding the right time to shoot outfit 1 for a while now. I brought it at Glastonbury on one of the vintage stalls believe it or not for £15. I feel like a bohemian princess in this just gliding through the fields and honestly could probably get married in something like this! I really wanted to wear it at Glastonbury but couldn't because of the rain- it's definitely one for next year! It doesn't need much styling so stuck with a dainty floral crown and a statement clutch- perfect garden party attire!

The 2nd look you will recognise the duster from the ASOS FF awards post. It's one of my best finds from Beyond Retro and is actually a dress! But I love wearing it open as a duster jacket which is perfect for the weather now to throw on over summery outfits. I absolutely love it with the pretty lace dress underneath and brought out the yellow with my DP bag and Primark wedges for a perfect August/September summer look- covered up yet still summery. 

I hope you have enjoyed our 2 part posts, Amy's transitional coats and my transitional florals! I don't know about you guys but I am so ready for AW now, bring on the layers!

I couldn't not include this outtake of me running in the rain mid way through shooting! The realistic side of blogging :-)
