    Matching Florals -Tie Top & Mini Skirt

    I’m loving how more and more bright colours and pretty summer prints have now worked their way back into my wardrobe. We’re not doing too badly, weather wise here in England and other than the expected odd few rainy days, the daily forcast had been pretty decent. This has meant being finally able to wear short skirts for the first time, in what feels like forever and being able to go bare legged too. Not to mention being able to wear sandals again!

    This cute matching floral two piece was a recent purchase from H&M. They actually did this set in different prints and colours. Resisting the temptation to buy every set available, I went for this one, as I love the gorgeous summery print and the pop of bright pink on the flowers.

    My sandals are from Clarks and I’m pretty much in love with them. I always struggle finding sandals that I like and that feel comfortable and for me these tick all the boxes. The fact that they are white means that they go with pretty much anything and I love how the silver sole makes them stand out.

  • Flashbacks of The Last Summer…

    Flashbacks of The Last Summer…

    I woke up yesterday morning and it was snowing… SNOWING! Now I’m not complaining, no wait a minute, I am. Snow is fabulous, it’s delightful, it’s absolutely fantastically magical when it comes along before Christmas, or Christmas Day, even better! However, two and a half weeks after, when the tree is down and Santa has gone home, I’m over it. I’m sick of being cold and I certainly don’t want to see snow. Now I shouldn’t be moaning as I really do enjoy the different seasons and I’m sure if I lived with one consistent weather type I’d miss it but I blame the shops and Christmas cards for my lack of January weather appreciation. I blame Christmas cards because the pictures always portray snow laden valleys and pretty icicles, which now immediately makes me associate cold weather and frost with Christmas time and the shops are worse because they decide to get rid of all the winter stock at the coldest time of the year and start stocking in spring/summer clothes and bikinis. Now I don’t know about you but that really messes my head up and it makes my need for spring/summer days even more immidiate.

    With all this in my mind, I was clearing through some of the stuff on my hard drive the other day when I stumbled across some unused outfit shots from last August. It reminded me how nice it is to be able to wear so few layers. So now I thought I’d finally share this forgotten outfit post on my blog, as a reminder that it was warm once and it will eventually be beautiful spring/summer once again. And to all of you who live in countries where it is warm right now, I’m not jealous one bit. Of course I’m not.

    What I wore:
    Kimono – Zara
    Vest – Forever 21
    Jeans – Topshop
    Sandals – River Island
    Backpack – River Island
