My lovely mum brought me back this summery white top from her holiday in Australia.
Although the weather just hasn’t been warm enough (for long enough) to wear it loose with the lovely lace edging out, I thought I would just layer it up and save the reveal of the edging for a proper summer’s day. (Might be a long wait.)
I’ve named my trousers my “blue balloon pants” – they’re light and a lovely soft brushed cotton from good ol’ ASOS – perfect for summer (and pseudo-summer) days. The weather may stop me wearing light summer clothing, but it can’t stop this one-man colour machine. There ain’t NO weather front that can do that 😉
Happy Sunday everyone – hope you’re all enjoying a nice weekend! Oh and come back on Tuesday for a round up of my favourite spring outfits from the last few months!
Cardigan: La Redoute, Coral tank: F+F at Tesco, White tank: Gift from my mum, Trousers: ASOS, Belt: La Redoute, Heels: Debenhams, Flower brooch: F+F at Tesco, Spike bracelet: ASOS, Watch: Jasper Conran at Debenhams, Rings: ASOS / H&M, Nails: Nails Inc Bluebell (free with InStyle magazine), Toenails: Barry M Cyan Blue
Your nail color is literally perfect! Wish my nails looked as beautiful as yours do! And fierce pants, sister. Beautiful as always.

Awww thanks Olivia… such lovely comments as always :)) xo
You look fab on those royal blue pants! I'm on the hunt for a great pair! 🙂 Also love the flower brooch! Love your blog & thanks for stopping by mine! You take beautiful pictures and I would have never guessed you are turning 40 soon!
Wow what wonderful comments, Tunde, thank you (so flattering!!)… and thanks so much for the follow: welcome to my blog! It's nice to meet you, hope to see you back again soon! C xo
The fit of these pants is fantastic…I'm ALL over the bright cobalt too! They might need to find their way to my closet 🙂 Although I did just find a pair of vintage 80s navy pants with a fun little white pattern that have a high waist and skinny ankles like this. So maybe I should just go style those!
