Buyer’s top picks for SS12!

By saraferrity in News, Trends, Womenswear on Thursday 5th January, 2012

With the new season fast approaching simply invest in a few key pieces to team with your staple items to bring your look bang up-to-date! Our lovely buying team have kindly shared with us their key items for Spring/Summer 2012 from our new collection!

 

1/    The Coloured Jacket

Wear with jeans to add a pop of colour to a classic look. Brights work well with last season’s neutrals so mix colourful separates with neutral pieces to refresh your wardrobe!

  

 2/    The Maxi Skirt             

The maxi skirt is key piece for SS12! Start with a plain jersey or pleated skirt now teamed with boots and a jumper then look out for our gorgeous soft printed ones later in the season.

 

3/    The Blouse          

Separates are important for SS12, wear over skinny jeans or tucked into a pencil skirt.  Blouses are great colour vehicles and below is a perfect example with yellow being THE colour for SS12!

 

 

4/    The Pencil Skirt  

Skirts are set to be one of the biggest trends for SS12.  Wear plain ponte pencils now then try out printed pencils later in the season

 

             

 

5/    Cute Knits                       

Great for layering over Tees and cute dresses later in the season

 

6/    Coloured Shift Dresses      

Colour is still very important for SS12 and we are going to have loads! Get this fab dress for just £15 now in cobalt, black and red now and come back in a few weeks for more colours – yellow, orange and hot pink!

 

 

7/    Coloured Palazzos   

Coloured tailoring was all over the SS12 catwalks, I love these purple palazzos!

 

8/    The Essential Black Skinny   

Still an essential item and great for wearing black with all the fab colours of the season! wear with blouses, tunics and under dresses for a stylish transition from winter to spring!

 

 

9/    Colour Blocking   

Continuing from AW12, try clashing new colours for SS12!

 

 

10/   The Mac  

Get some colour in your wardrobe for the transition with a fab coloured mac! This lime green looks new and fresh for SS12!

 

Personally I’m smitten with the stunning range of maxi skirts we have just got in! At just £16 I think I’ll get it in all four colours! Shop our new collection here!

Hi, I’m Lizzie, one of the buyers here at Tesco. As a buyer my job entails sourcing the right products, at the right time, and at the right prices for you!

I look at key trends, fabrics, prints and colours, making sure we get the best pieces instore and online for you, our customers.

Lets talk trends…Prints are always a key trend for Spring/Summer, nothing says summer like patterns and prints, and it’s an ideal way to show off your tan! Floral prints were heavily featured on the runway this year, especially during Milan Fashion Week. If you like earthy tones and exotic influences then this trend is the one is for you. Tribal prints are very big currently with their colour and  fun nature they’re very wearable. If you needed any more convincing, the late Alexander McQueen had a beautiful, futuristic print-heavy collection for Summer which proves that prints are one look too hot to miss this summer. But remember, this doesn’t mean you need to wear prints head to toe. Work them in to your wardrobe subtly with a floral cardigan or tribal summer dress.

In honour of all things print, here are my top 5 picks from the site:
