HIPPITY HOP INTO SPRING...

Wahoo! March has been a very good month indeed. The flowers are blooming and the sun is shining. Getting to leave the house without a coat has felt like an absolute dream. Applying sunscreen (oh, the luxury), drooling over the bright colors at the grocery store (mmm, strawberries) and highlighting my tanned feetsies by wearing brighter-than-bright pink toe-nail polish... ah, yes. Spring, your arrival is warmly welcomed. Please, never leave.

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend. xx

PUT ON A GRIN AND START RIGHT IN...

Back in university I used to always think, 'when I graduate I'll start shopping at Whistles.'

When you're a student you think you'll have a bigger disposable income when you graduate... that you'll get a job where you'll need to look respectable. Oh, how reality fails to live up to our expectations - hah. Despite the fact that I can work most days in my pajamas, I still view Whistles as being aspirational. It might be a high street shop but something about it oozes luxury. I don't go shopping that often but, honestly, every time I've gone into Whistles I've found tons of beautiful pieces. Most notably: sweet little dresses, nice trousers, and bucket loads of covetable knits and T-shirts.

This afternoon I received the brand's pre-fall look book and my jaw sort of hit the floor a little. Whistles, have you had your eye on street style trends lately? The slouchy silky printed pajama style trousers and varsity-light baseball jacket are totally Jak & Jil worthy, no? Above are my four favorite looks. The styling is lovely and simple which I like a lot. In an ideal world, I'd be wearing the entire outfit on the bottom left tomorrow. But with Converse not heels... I don't do heels on flights (that's just silly). A leather top with a peplum also made an appearance. I know, right?! Do you even understand the obsession I've been having with peplums? It's die-hard.
