In this post today I am talking about making those Winter to Spring fashion transitions for 2018. What I am wearing and some latest purchases too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">So what can we expect for the transition this year. There are many things that are still in this season, one of which is Lace, another Embroidery and the other one is Stripes. Nautical and Striped themed clothing is well and truly in still this year, with several brands mixing the stripes with a variety of other fashion trends such as Bardot and Cold Shoulder. I have noticed a great deal of striped trousers, both work wear and casual that look very sophisticated and can be paired with shirts, blouses or a nice top. It&#8217;s good to mix your trends, but shapes are often hard to match, a plain bright top can really work with some striped trousers and high heels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Another style making a comeback is Polka Dots! These spots can range in the tiny to the huge with lots of companies choosing to put them on everything from tops to dresses and I have even seen trousers!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Something else I have seen these past few weeks was Bold Colours. Bold Reds and Blues seem to be all over the markets and the LBD (Little Black Dress) seems to have been reinvented by some, making it more of a statement piece that is no longer just a black dress anymore. It often now has lace, embroidery, varying hem lengths or even unusual material combinations!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Saying all that though Pastels are also in for Summer, so be prepared to see a lot of Pink, Yellow and Turquoise shades in the high street.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Finally, and a style that I love all year around is Floral! Floral&#8217;s are still in, and contrary to what most people think they are not just for Spring and Summer! I have seen work wear, dresses and tops in the &#8220;new in&#8221; sections on various websites. There are so many trends that have major floral inspirations for 2018.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u2570\u2606\u256e\u2570\u2606\u256e\u2570\u2606\u256e<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>My Latest Dorothy Perkins Spring Purchases<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Maternity T-Shirts and Tops<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2981\" src=\"http:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dorothy-Perkins-Navy-Floral-SW-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dorothy-Perkins-Navy-Floral-SW-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dorothy-Perkins-Navy-Floral-SW-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dorothy-Perkins-Navy-Floral-SW-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Dorothy-Perkins-Navy-Floral-SW.jpg 1732w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>I wanted some new maternity tops for the Spring to Summer transition of my pregnancy.
