One of the key trends for Spring Summer 2010 is bright vibrant colours that bring a splash of sunshine to the new season. Littlewoods have bright pieces in key pop colours to add an instant dash of life to your wardrobe. Bold, optimistic colours in shades of coral, sunny yellow, pink, purple and turquoise are an instant way to update and accent a dull winter wardrobe without breaking the bank. The key to this trend is picking bright signature pieces that will see you through the new season and complement your existing wardrobe.

They have everything from gorgeous floaty dresses in acidic shades to neon shoes and bags, all you need to update your look without spending your life savings! If it all seems a little too loud for you then accessorize using these key colours with scarves or bags so it’s less overpowering.  Valentino (above) and other big fashion houses exhibited neon colours through their collections at Couture week in Paris which we previously wrote about. Littlewoods offers a far less expensive way to buy in to this trend especially as we feel it will date.
