Ooh! Tribal Tease

This is going to be my pay day splurge! I'm being a bit of a print freak this season (a quick scroll through my blog will confirm that), and there's just no talking me out of it - sorry!

Always a bit of a sucker for a touch of luxe, this tribal tease dress appeals because it's 100% silk, and gorgeous - obviously. Just think of those weddings, big birthday bashes etc. you'll need it for this Summer...

Ooh! Silver Snake Shoes

On the hunt for some metallic footwear for Spring/Summer (they reflect the beautiful sunshine and look EXTRA shiny!) I came across these bendy-soled silver snake loafers, and voila, my search came to an abrupt end.

They're hot to trot, and you just know they're going to be kind to your feet. Plus, I reckon you can squeeze them into your handbag as a back-up option on a night out when your heels are hurting :)

Ooh! Batik Beauty

I still can't quite believe it's going to be 20 degrees in London today? Well whether we reach this temp or not, one thing's for sure - it's officially time to banish your winter stuff to the depths of your wardrobe, and reach for some new, inspiring items for Summer. Hurrah!

A quick scout around on the net this morning, threw up this beauty - a jade batik print top by Sandro. Beautiful, and 100% silk, you just know it's gonna look good with your denim shorts :)

Ooh! Scarlet Skirt

Look every bit the siren, in this scarlet red a-line skirt

It's a must-have because it salutes the colour-block trend, with touches of hot pink detailing. It's a colour combo that shouldn't work, but it does!

And it's in KM's sale...

A-Line Skirt was £105, NOW £70 from Karen Millen.

Ooh! Denim Delight

Like the look of the crop top, but don't want to bare too much flesh? Try a denim tie top that sits neatly on the waist. The best thing about this one, is its versatility - as the Summer progresses, and that tum gets more tanned, you can go shorter (if you dare!)

Ooh! Pineapple Print Bikini

Just came across this super-duper pineapple print bikini and had to share! Isn't it great?

It simply needs no explanation, it's just 100% fabulous. End of.

Ooh! Super Sweat

Everyone needs some chill-out attire, and whilst the sloppy hoodies and ropey cardigans that you've had forever, will do the trick, why not look a little bit stylish while you're lounging around on t' sofa?

This YMC sweatshirt in raspberry pink, is one cool sweat. You can wear it for lazy weekends, for sure, but throw it on with a mini and flats, and it's good for Saturdays spent shopping.

Plus, it's a touch 80's (and I LOVE that).

Ooh! Peppermint Pretty

Today at work, we're all green for St Paddy's Day. But rather than wear a garish, bright shamrock shade, I'm going down an alternative route, and opting for a peppermint number instead.

A chiffon midi skirt, in a sweet shade that whispers "happy st paddy's day..." rather than bellowing it lads-on-tour style. Tasteful.

Mint Green Chiffon Pleated Midi Skirt, £19.99 from New Look.

Ooh! Hula Girl

We've had some great weather in the capital today! So smiling ear to ear, and willing it to carry on, I'm dreaming about Summer...and holidays... aah, bliss.

This Hawaiian print bra top fits the bill for my imaginary holiday wardrobe (imaginary because there are currently NO holidays in the calendar). It's so very Summer though - it's got palm trees on it, for goodness sake, and only holiday-like places have those. Just add high-waisted skinny jeans (white if you're feeling brave!) and some tough wedges.


Hawaiian Print Bra Top, £20 from Miss Selfridge.

Ooh! Ying Yang Tank

Printed tanks are hot news at the moment, and ideal for throwing on at the weekend with your skinny jeans. 

Maison Scotch have tons of cute designs, including this ying yang heart tank which looks like the design has been scribbled on in one, easy go. Simple, effortless, and just a bit of fun - what's not to love?

Ooh! Sateen Slims

Florals are everywhere at the moment, and I'm wanting to venture out and wear them on my trews. I have floral top and floral dress a-plenty, but no floral trousers, just yet... 

This pair are pretty eye-catching - nice and busy, but not too outlandish in their peach colour. The non-scary way to trial flowers...on your ass (come on, I can't be the only one who's held back so far on that account!)

I'm gonna go for it...

Floral Sateen Slims, £98 from Anthropologie.

Ooh! Flaming Hot Heels

Check out these flaming hot heels ladies! They're awesome, right?

A statement heel for sure, but not totally O.T.T. - it's a shoe you can wear all year round, whether you're tight-clad or bare-legged. Come rain or shine, they're just plain cool, and a complete FIND...

Ooh! Queen Bee

Everyone needs a little extra love on Mondays, hey? 

Well, remind your good self, once in a while, exactly who's boss with this vintage playing card Queen print. Unashamedly hang it somewhere prominent to give you that ego boost as you begin to go about your day.

(And if anyone comments - you're patriotic, it's for the Queen's jubilee. Duh.)

Vintage Playing Card Queen Print, £39.95 from Selfridges.

Ooh! Great Gatsby

Presenting the gorgeous, Gatsby printed skirt by Oasis... 

I've spent some time browsing the web, as I do each Sunday, for the sorts of inspiring fashion finds to bring readers of this blog, and keep 'em sweet. And this skirt, my friends, is exactly the ticket.

It jumped out, and caught my eye because I'm outfit-hunting for a Spring wedding, but you could certainly wear this printed pencil to the office, or to the bar, after-hours.

Nice find, huh?

Ooh! Fashion Backpack

So it's official - the backpack is well and truly, back. I'll admit - I first heard whisperings of its return a year or two ago from one of the most stylish and fashion-forward ladies I know, but I was in denial, and frankly, a little bit baffled! I thought we'd left them behind with *GASP* bum-bags. But lo and behold, here we are in 2012, sporting them again. 

A quick skim of the high-street will present you with the ubiquitous Chanel knock-off quilted option in black, or, wait for it...white (how original) store to store, but for those who don't want to jump on that band waggon, there are alternatives...

Enter this backpack from H! by Henry Holland, a straw carrier with some personality! Hurrah!


Natural Small Straw Backpack, £22, H! by Henry Holland for Debenhams.

Ooh! Aqua Dream

I'm off to a party tonight, and this in need of something simple, plain, but pretty to wear to an occasion that, quite frankly, will not be showy at all, and probably a little bit messy...

I've worn many a Miss S playsuit in my time, so I'd be confident that this one would be a good fit. Plus, the aqua green is pretty striking, and there's a nice keyhole detail at the front, which is interesting rather than too flashy.

All in all, this playsuit is perfect for the work do! Now how to get my hands on it quickly...


Keyhole Front Playsuit, £35 from Miss Selfridge.
