Weekend Shopping: Work The Red & Pink Colour Sync Trend

This weekend, I'm all about finding some key pieces that work the red and pink colour clash trend.

This super-hot look shows no sign of slowing since it's recent Spring Summer 2011 catwalk revival, with designers including J Crew and Louise Gray having showed more of this eye popping colour contrast for Spring Summer 2012 too. Go for individual colour-blocked separates, bold ready-clashed pieces or try adding red nails with a pink outfit for a subtle yet knowing take on this key fashion trend.

Lacoste's great pink and red spotted v-neck sweater is an easy ready made style option; great packaging from Marc Jacobs' youthful Oh, Lola! scent available at Selfridges

Lastly, this awesome limited edition Lego poppy by Bwoy Wonder from Lyrics4Lyrics is not only a cute accessory but is also a great way to get kids wearing poppies this month, with a percentage of the profits going to the Poppy Appeal.
