Flower power

Image
Experiencing pre-Spring sunshine and these fab tights from Veneziana inspired this floral-themed work outfit.  The Marianne tights are just that little bit fabulous, I almost felt I was having a Shakira moment! They were the perfect accessory to complement the floral jacket that I bought on impulse at Primark but had no idea when or how I was going to wear it.  Naturally my trusty red shoes were added on for that extra pop of colour.  Here's to more sunny days!

Finally, it's springtime

Finally the sun has got his hat on! After that long, long winter we all finally deserved some warmer weather.  Apologies but I've used one of my favourite pictures (again) of my dog Jasper.  It kind of reminds me of what the next few months should be: hazy, warm and relaxing.  Fingers crossed the British summer doesn't let us down! So I've started my spring cleaning and packed away my winter stuff.  Maybe I being a little presumptuous but I'm hoping that I now longer need those jumpers.  What I also have realised is that my spending habits have changed in a positive way, in that I haven't spent as much this winter on clothes so don't have as much to pack away.  Now that its officially Springtime, I'm hoping to be wearing more shoes like this: And these: I've found some sandals that I have stashed away too so will be cataloguing them for the blog.

I'm organised - are you?

Finally I've sorted out my wardrobe, with the excuse that I need to get organised for the colder months.  So pictured, is my now pristine wardrobe.  Summer items have been packed away, future car boot sales products have been registered, winter boots have been brought out of hibernation  . . . Then what happens! The great British Weather decides to have some sort of a mini Indian Summer/heat wave.  Now I have pulled together my capsule working wardrobe, re-heeled my court shoes and dug out the opaque tights, the sun finally decides to appear.  Note to sun - where exactly have you been since July? I have been sat in my office today when its 29.5c and someone has been wearing white linen pants and wedges!  This really means that I need to step up my plan to convert the attic into dressing room so that all my clothes are easily accessible for any season or weather condition (to be honest though, I really need to work on my outfits for snow days). How is...

The Sun has got its hat on

Finally the sun has appeared just in time to enjoy the rest of the bank holiday weekend!  I'm busy planning an outfit for tonight's drinks out with the girls.  I have some gorgeous coral heels to plan an outfit round (separate post later).  I read in an article that Coral is the new Black but I've yet to agree. Just a quick update on my Domestic Goddess status; pictured are my beautiful hydrangeas, I'm just deciding the right place to put them but they seem to be thriving.  I think I might also do some cupcake baking on my days off this weekend too!
