When your children are growing up you will probably find you have hundreds of pictures, some you will probably display in picture frames and photo albums but sometimes some great pictures get forgotten. A fun way to show off some of these great pictures is to have the images put on clothing by using t shirt printing, they can be used in any way you want and you have full control of the design. You can choose what size or style of t shirt you want or even have the images put on other things such as jumpers, hoodies, vests or bags the options are endless.
Having your photo’s printed on t shirts and other things also makes great gifts either for your child’s birthday like their 16th, 18th or 21st, or you can give them as gifts to relatives that you haven’t seen for a while. If you use an online printing company such as Splash Logo you can choose from a wide range of items that can be personalised for your needs, plus with a quick turnaround time you designs can be sent out quickly if you have a upcoming birthday or event. Making it easy to share those special moments with the ones you love.
Wella have this year deemed 2010 the year of the blonde, new techniques and new shades mean you won’t see people sporting brassy roots and straw-like ends, instead creamy shades of caramel and honey and cool, crisp tones of beige think more natural sun-kissed locks. A good cut for this colour is a choppy, textured bob which the perfect style to show of creamy blonde tones and using ghd sculpting wax to give your hair definition.
If you have longer hair you can still rock the blonde haired look with bright blonde highlights are concentrated around the face while darker shades of blonde sit underneath for a natural look, with natural looking waves on the ends created by using ghd straighteners to get the beach look.
If you like sportswear style clothing with a vintage American Collage style then Franklin and Marshall is right up your street, the Italian brand which was founded back in 1999 is easily recognisable by their retro college logo. Designs are on easy wear sweats, t-shirts, hoodies and jeans plus many more, for both male and female. Creators Giuseppe Albarelli and Andrea Pensiero found inspiration for the brand after they went exploring a second hand market in London and came across an old 1970’s sweatshirt originating from the Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania.
The classic American style is a great look with many of their t-shirts, hoodies and vests featuring the Franklin and Marshall collage embalm and retro American style. Their easy wear clothing is great for a classic laidback look with sportswear designs for the men’s clothing and a vintage cowboy look for women’s clothing.

A big trend coming out at the moment is the Parisian chic look. The French have always had a great sense of style so it’s no surprise that, that style is working its way into fashion at the moment. It works so well with so many different styles because it’s normally very simple. This style also goes well with another big trend, the nautical look.
Work the Parisian look with a blue sailor style dress and some chunky gold jewelry for day and evening wear, feel like you are about to set off on a yacht from St Tropez. Or team a navy top and skinny jeans and a jacket and team with some quilted flat pumps for day then swap them for suede high heeled courts for evening.

Spring is also a great time to change the way we wear our hair too, with new colours and styles that will refresh and revamp your hair ready for summer. The dark colours that we saw during autumn/winter are replaced with bright and breezy shades of blonde, either go for a full head of blonde highlights or add some here and there to lighten your colour. From creamy caramel and warm honey tones to bright, platinum white, blonde is back in a big way.
Many designers featured blonde haired models sporting the just from the beach look which is an easy style to recreate. Using ghd sea spray, dry it into your hair to create a matte texture for a distressed beach babe look for day. For evening pick up on the wave trend as seen on the catwalks, this is again anther easy look to create, using your ghd hair straightners insert vertically at the roots, holding the ends of the hair with your free hand. Turn the styler around 180 degrees, gently and slowly pulling it down the hair lengths until you reach the ends.
At the end of last year a trend that started to filter out into women’s clothing was underwear being worn as outerwear, over winter it was black lace and sequins however as we are heading into spring summer the trend is still here but now in pastel and ice-cream shades.
Some celebrities braved this look last winter however a few more have this year the look doesn’t mean you have to wear your lacy underwear above your other clothes but more like a lacy light top mixed with a jacket or a lace body and skinny jeans. As well as lace corsets are also back in girly colours from this season pallet.

Moving on from just t shirt printing you can get other clothing personalised to fit your needs, if you are part of a sports club or walking/hiking team you can have your performance wear personalised for your team.

If you wish to have a ‘kit’ for your group www.splashlogo.co.uk has lots of performance wear on offer from specialist walking clothes to team kit’s, polo shirts, hoodies and waterproofs.
This look took a hiatus the past couple of years but it’s now back in force, the dishevelled, tousled tresses are updated slightly with a flirty flick of fringe falling above one eye.
This look is easily achieved by scrunching ghd sea spray into damp hair, missing out the fringe also apply ghd obedience cream to the fringe and blow-dry it to the side you can then rough dry the rest of your hair, to finish off the look take your ghd straighteners and going from the root rotating 180 degrees toward the crown and lifting vertically towards the ends and flick out to create a sleek and heavy asymmetric fringe crossing the forehead that kicks out at the ends.
Although it feels like it’s a bit early to start looking for summer clothes those styles have been slowly filtering into women’s fashion for the past month, this year wear are seeing a mix of bright patterns, nautical style and faded vintage look.
The trends that were seen on the catwalks were big bold prints on long flowing dresses and light floaty tops as well as a huge nautical influence with navy blues and bright reds and many designers used denim a lot with faded vintage looking styles mixed with light girly tops.

It’s another time of year that men hate, Valentine’s Day, stuck with the question what do I get her? There are many gifts women will love to receive women’s clothing coming near the top after expensive jewellery i.e. engagement ring and perfume. If you are going to buy your better half clothing its worth having a look at what she has to check sizing rather than making the mistake of guessing!
If your not sure what clothes to buy underwear is another good idea but again check sizes first, if you are a little put off about picking something in the right size you can always look for some pretty accessorises like a scarf or hat or even splash out for a new back.
