Have you noticed all the lilac and purple hues this Spring? I love this colour and it’s everywhere from jumpers to lipsticks to wallets.
Last weekend I was in Belfast (more on that soon!) and I bought this pretty Topshop lilac ruffled jumper.
Not only was it a complete bargain, £15 in sale, €42 full price but it also combines another spring trend, ruffles! I’ll be wearing this blue jeans or with black leather-look trousers to work.
Excuse my face, I was a little hungover!
FYI, the sizing of this jumper was really off, I got a 6 which would normally be too small for me in a jumper but the 8 felt too tight!
I also picked up this lilac quilted wallet in Penneys for about £4.
It’s very similar to the Skinnydip wallets and matches this bag.
I may have to get the bag too!
I already own a *few* pastel purple pieces..
Warning: lilac runners are as impractical as white ones!
Super jealous of Kate Moss strutting her stuff in this pastel Chanel outfit.

Recently I even bought a lilac lippie and was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. I find pink/purple shades can make your teeth look a little yellow but I really wanted to try it out.
This “Charm” lipstick was about €2 from Bershka. If you want to try an unusual lip colour, go for a cheap lipstick in case you hate it!
I’ve been looking for a dress to wear to my graduation and I’m very drawn towards lilac and pink. This Missguided dress is currently reduced from €60 to €15 in sale – OMG!
These skinny cigarette trousers would be great to liven up a work outfit, €12 from Missguided.
It’s a bit early for pajama shorts but how cute is this set ?
Finally I’m in love with this Topshop mesh t-shirt, it looks great layered over a black or white top.
I don’t know but I’ve never had a pair of Converse yet. This “Frozen Lilac” style is just calling my name right now.
If you don’t like a lot of pastel colours, then an accessory like this beanie hat is ideal for just a splash of purple perfection.
Do you guys like lilac and pastel colours? Let me know, I’d love to hear your opinions.
