Food For Thought: Jane Fonda

We're not perfect. Its a toxic desire to want to be perfect. We're not meant to be perfect, we're meant to be whole. You have to live an examined life. You can't try to be perfect & whole at the same time. You have to know what's wrong & say 'OK'. Then you become embodied.

Embellish Your Summer Wardrobe

The T-shirt has long been an essential piece in every stylish woman's wardrobe. From your boyfriend’s baggy favourite to that perfectly-fitted silk number, it’s one of the most versatile items in anyone’s drawers. What would the humble pair of jeans be without a jersey basic to go alongside? And where would the fashion industry be without the classic stripy Breton tee? The latest trend to come from the catwalk this season is the couture T-shirt. Produced with a well-structured shape and luxury fabrics, it's at its best when embellished to the max.

A key trend for spring and summer 2012, choose couture T-shirts in bold prints or pastel shades, with floral embellishments for a summery note. Wear with slim-line jeans or trousers to balance out the square shape, or accentuate with a full skirt for a prettier, more feminine look.

Comfy, chic, and with no need to hunt for accessories, the Firetrap range of embellished T-shirts provides a brilliant alternative to evening dressing. Simply team with tailored trousers for a sharper feel. Alternatively, pair with a sexy pencil skirt for on-trend office wear or worn-in jeans for weekend cool.

There are so many varieties of embellished T-shirts out there that it's easy to build a collection. It's amazing to see how easily a couture-style top can transform your look – why not wear with a gorgeous cardigan for a luxurious feel?

Here are the major trends for embellished tees this season:

Sequins

Sequin T-shirts are perfect for every season. Wear them with a suede A-line skirt in the spring and jeans in the winter. If you're not into the dramatics of sequins, tone it down by choosing an embellished T-shirt that uses them conservatively.
Feathers

What's not to love about embellished T-shirts that use feathers? Get that formal look with none of the effort of getting dolled up. While your friends are shivering in their mini-skirts and constantly trying to adjust their cocktail dresses, you’ll look completely fabulous, without really trying.

Studs

Studded tops appeared on the fashion scene two years ago, but are worn very differently now. Fashionistas wouldn’t be seen dead this season without studs and feminine-detailed clothing – think rock chic studded boots, teamed with a cute, floaty pink skirt.

To add that extra bit of bling to your funky tee, simply accessorize with chunky jewellery and a great pair of heels. Guaranteed to get heads turning this summer.
