Summer Time is coming!

How utterly stunning has the weather been these past couple of days? I'm completely embracing the sunshine at the moment. With this in mind, I'm taking the opportunity to sport my latest edition to my summer dress collection.

On a recent trip to Primark, my eyes instantly clocked this lovely striped number. Maxi dresses were all in last year, but this year I'm noticing that it's all about calf length skirts/dresses.

Today me, my summer dress and my best friend will be toddling out for a rendezvous at the local Sushi bar. I'm quite a n00b when it comes to sushi. I've always liked the idea of it, but have never been able to bring myself to grasp the concept of eating raw fish. However, I did try sushi not so long ago and have since acquired quite a taste for it.




After filling our tummies with sushi, we'll be off for a spot of retail therapy and hopefully enjoying some more of this lovely sunshine!

Hope all of you lovely ladies have a brilliant weekend filled with sunshine! Are you all up to anything exciting?

Blueberry Compote

The weather in England has really been a bit hit and miss as of late. The sunshine can never seem to make its mind up whether it fancies making an appearance or just being down right lazy and hiding away. Nine times out of ten, it tends to be the latter.

There has been many of mornings I've woken up and not had a clue what to wear. When the sun has been out, so I've worn something a little cooler, only to go out, the sun then decides to go back to bed - leaving me shivering and scantily clad. Weather fail.

Primark are currently stocking these lovely chunky knit cardigans. I bought mine a couple of months ago and have been wearing it ever since! It's great to wear on these 'not-so-sure-about-the-weather' days, with it being warm enough to snuggle up in, but it's also easily enough to fold up and pop into your handbag if it gets a little warmer.

They do quite a few lovely seasonal colours. My sister picked up the camel coloured cardigan, and I went with the navy blue...

What are your fail-safe items in this weird and wonderful weather we're having?

Love birds

I'm sure most of you will recognise this blouse from my Wishlist - January Edition post. I was really excited when I laid my eyes on it in my local New Look! I just had to purchase the little beauty after previous weeks of lusting over it.

Isn't it pretty? Annnd... It has cute little birdies on it too.

I also really love these boots. My boyfriend bought them for me back in August for my birthday. He spotted them after knowing how much I've been craving the Vivienne Westwood pirate boots, and thought they were a good dupe to be going on with.

As much as I love the Viv boots, I don't think I could justify spending £345.00 on them. This makes me sad.
