River Island up the ante for Spring / Summer 2009

riverisland.jpg

There's a bit of a blogger buzz surrounding River Island at the moment. Queen Michelle started it, raving about the floral tights that are currently flying off the shelves. Then I witnessed Isabelle having a long Twitter conversation with FabSugar UK about the very same tights (£7.82) and some of the other new season styles. River Island themselves are currently running a competition to find the best Spring style, so now is the time to get down to your local store, camp out in the fitting rooms and get creative. I love the bright 80s colours, pretty florals and bold looks they're peddling this season - I've seen what's still to come and it just gets better from here! This is one shop that's definitely raising their game during difficult times!

I think I'm the only person not to 'get' River Island... I shall have to re-evaluate at the weekend when I go shopping!

Give RI a go Selina, I wouldn't normally go in there but I was very pleasantly surprised.

Although I'd say that TOPSHOP were doing that painterly watercolour floral trend on tops and dresses last summer, I think River Island have produced a really pretty, wearable collection as the trend filters down into the mainstream.

Eye candy!

Why isnt this dress on the RI website no more?! :@ :( I really want it and my local RI is quite a small one with not much choice, they had the dress on the website but when I went on it today it had disappeared :'(
