h&g Spring/Summer '10 Inspiration

The inspiration for hope & glory for the upcoming seasons of warmth and sunshine (fingers crossed!) is 50's pastels and english florals. How do I make the decisions for the shop's direction? Its all about what I'm loving right now! This feels like the most authentic way to lead the shop, especially, as from the beginning I decided to only stock things I love and would have in my own home.

So to give you a visual idea of my inspiration, without further ado....
