Once you pop you just can't stop

The sun may be struggling to make an appearance but this season’s trend for bright colours will certainly warm things up. One thing is for certain, 2013 is all about bold patterns, prints and colour and here at PoM we love it. Animal, aztec, stars, botanical, geometric, it’s all about clashing colour with design and that all makes for a really exciting time to be in accessories. With some major pop culture exhibitions going on around the UK, the influence on the high street is already visible where stores are bursting with bright juicy colours. But pastel shades are also big this spring - soft pink, greens and blues are very flattering for any skin type and take us on an easy journey into summer when pop brights are set to sizzle.

As seen on TV

You only have to switch on TV or flick through a magazine to see that scarves are a huge accessory right now, with many people choosing to wear them whether it’s cold or not. They make a big bold statement that adds an instant hit of colour to your wardrobe and for the not so fashion confident, they're a brilliant way of experimenting with a colour you might not normally wear.

Scarves are also a fairly inexpensive way of giving your ‘look’ an update. Who has the cash to buy a new wardrobe 4 times a year? Or maybe you have to wear something fairly conservative to work (this doesn’t apply to us here at PoM, we’ve even been known to wear our slippers) putting on a bright patterned scarf at 5.30pm will certainly give you a ‘schools out’ tingle.

Our favourite look at the moment is colour clashing, there are a lot of pop colours out there and let’s be honest they can be quite hard to wear for the average British woman who never sees the sun! So wearing a bright scarf is a safe way to try a new fashion trend.

Working at PoM is dangerous for those of us who love a good scarf (I believe many of us now have a personal scarf collection to rival most boutiques) and we're not worried about mixing stripes with spots or animal prints with florals, it's just one of the fun elements to accessorizing.
