•I'm aware that it's minus something or another outside this week, but I'm so distracted by summery clothes and thoughts of being in hot climes that whilst window shopping at lunch time yesterday, I actually tried on a bikini in River Island. How ridiculous?! Needless to say it didn't take long for the cold in the changing room to kick in, the goose pimples to rise and it dawned on me that I looked plain stupid.

I'm not quite ready to go all out and start buying bikinis that's for sure however I am really excited at the prospect of wearing heels with tanned bare legs and dresses; is it me or does the last time it was warm feel like it was forever ago? I really love tan leather on a wedged heel and remember seeing a few pairs on the high street last year which took no time to disappear. So I've spotted this Topshop pair and I'm paranoid if I don't buy them now I never will! I love how well the colour works with these lovely shorts by Emma Cook from theoutnet.com too and think they'll be a very wearable piece with my wardrobe come summer. I have so many blouses, little camisoles and tees that would look lovely tucked in to these shorts but for me they'd be best matched with a good old grey marl tee and a bright bib necklace, night out sorted ;) xoxo
