The new 2012 Cruise Collection from Temperley London
The Temperley London Cruise Collection 2012 has now landed and it’s a glorious collection of dresses and separates, including jumpers, skirts, maxi skirts and blouses. The emphasis is primarily on neutral colours, with many items in the collection in pale coffee shades or black. However, colour does feature on some key pieces, especially bright red, teal green and royal blue.
Temperley London Long Estella Dress
Temperley London Long Estella Dress
One of my favourite pieces in the collection is the Temperley London Long Estella Dress, an amazing red silk dress which is just below knee length at the front, with a fabulous floor sweeping train at the back. It’s perfect for the red carpet or an extravagant ball and need only be teamed with towering heels and well place jewels for an amazing ensemble.
Temperley London Estella Top and Nolita Trousers

Keeping the theme of the Estella Dress, Temperley London have also introduced the Estella Top, shown in the photo on the right teamed with the Nolita Trousers. The Estella Top is a very eye catching one shouldered design, which sweeps diagonally across the body and falls lower at the back, sweeping across your back with elegance.
It’s shown here teamed with the Nolita trousers, cream coloured ankle crop cigarette pants.
