TK MAXX OPENING IN HAMMERSMITH

More than 50 full and part-time new jobs for the area.


FLORAL

Hooray - fashion has gone all floral and feminine. Styles hark back to the swinging fifties with tea dance inspired dresses. Team with flat, soft leather pumps and you'll be the talk of your friends. Don't overdo it though or you'll end up looking like a budding rose bush!

MILITARY

If you would like to try a touch of military opt for chinos in khaki or beige. With all those pockets on a pair of combats they are only flattering on the slimmest of individuals. Team the trousers with a short, tailored jacket in camouflage tones or suede to keep the spring chills at bay. Or you could match the trousers with a fitted floral shirt for an ultra-feminine twist.

OTHER KEY LOOKS FOR SPRING SUMMER
· The Mac is back in soft pastels. Wear it in style as you parade down the high street
· Pumps are huge this summer - a relief to many of us! Choose from ballet style or driving shoes, all which can be found in a fantastic array of colours and can be teamed up with so many outfits
· Taste of the Orient - If you fancy a mandarin style shirt you'll find plenty to choose from. Be warned though they are not the most flattering if you have a large chest, opt for a wrap-around style instead, far more slimming. And if you want to accessorise choose an oriental-inspired embroidered handbag with bamboo-style handles
