Here's a list of my top favorite spring-summer 2012 picks and have collected a few pieces of my own based on these inspirations:
1. Prints- I never miss prints in my collection every spring. May it be floral or tropical. Can't wait to wear 'em!

| Dolce & Gabbana printed footwear |
2. Cropped top or bralet- got a good eyelet bralet from AE & a white leather one from H&M...what I'll wear it with? surprise! I'm still looking for a bright floral one

3. Peplum- it was difficult to find because of my XXS size but I managed to get a plain black skirt from H&M. I would've love to have the Zara peplum dress in pastel pink.

| Philipp Lim peplum |
4. Pastel- I was looking at GAP pastel jeans but I'm not a big fan of trousers so I opted for a Zara floral pastel shorts.
 |
| Prada pleated pastel |
5. Asymmetrical hemline- though it's tough for me to find one that best suits my style & my size, finally I was able to get a lovely royal blue pleated dress from H&M with an asymmetrical hemline. happy shopper me!

| Zara asymmetrical hemline |
6. Black & White- old & new collection in my closet includes a lot of whites for spring & summer. It can be perfectly combined with a few black pieces. My black peplum skirt fits perfectly with my white leather cropped top. I'll post the look soon!

| Moschino black & white |
7. Neon- of all the neon colors, I so love the citrus one! Saw a lovely H&M citrus mesh-top backless dress and fortunately got my size, yey!...and a lovely citrus clutch to match it with :)

8. Lace- I have a few old collections in my closet and looks like they're good to recycle this season. Still my love for a new piece got me a couple from Zara & H&M
 |
| Louise Vuitton lace collection |
9. Statement collars- I love this style but I didn't think it's my style...luckily I managed to eye a good piece from H&M & it's a sheer one with a lace accent on the collar, perfect!

10. Crochet shorts- got a couple from Zara and Foreign Exchange (yes, this West Coast brand managed to make it to my China closet! thanks to my friend Lizzy!)

11. Pleated- I bagged a lovely cobalt blue H&M pleated dress with asymmetrical hemline and another beige romper from last years autumn collection still rocks this trend.
