High Street Hits: Swinging Towards Spring

I'm daydreaming of swimming costumes and sunny beaches on lazy Summer afternoons. OK, OK, there's snow on the ground outside, but the new Spring Fashion collections are all just so pretty I can't help but wish for sunnier times!
It might be a while yet until it's time to grab a glamorous sunhat and head to Cannes but there are some lovely transitional pieces around to layer up and wear through both the chillier and warmer months. Of course being me it's all about dresses with elegant, as well as versatile, prints and pretty little floral details...

High Street Hits: Bunny Bananza

I really love spotting wild bunnies, and I'm lucky to live near an area where you can often spy them basking in the sun on a Summer's evening. However, though I love rabbits all year round they're most commonly associated with Spring as far as fashion is concerned. As much as I love Spring pastels bunnies are also a rather adorable motif for the colder months too, currently seen in a more natural, muted colour palette. About this time last year I spotted a really cute H! By Henry Holland bunny t-shirt in Debenhams and fell in love with it. Likewise the exact same thing has happened again this year, but this time featuring a bunny wrapped up all cosy and warm in a scarf. So I decided to investigate what other little furry friends are hopping their way into our wardrobes this Autumn/Winter...

Festival Floral Style

♥ George at ASDA top, coat and earrings ♥ Vivienne Westwood heart bag ♥ Very old but much loved Joules wellies ♥ Primark hat ♥ New Look skirt

Funnily enough the only festivals I've ever been to have involved classical music and cosy numbered seats, but there's always been that appeal to grab my Cath Kidston tent and dress up for an outdoor one. So when  George at ASDA got in touch to ask me to pick something out to style a Summer festival look I gladly took up the challenge and headed to my local countryside.
George have been doing such lovely things this Summer including some really cute ladies tops and I love the fun polka dots and little Peter Pan collar on this jersey one. I decided to play with pattern mixing for my festival look and got my floral on. A mac is somewhat of a festival essential and I really love the pretty pastel colours and floral print on this George one! It folds up very neatly into the pocket too which is handy for if the sun decides to make an appearance. I really like the emphasis on the waist for a more elegant silhouette than other macs I've had. I also picked out some sweet little gem earrings in rich jewel colours to add a little sparkle to any muddy field.
What's your festival look?
