Witchery Summer 2011

 

Wow! Witchery have really upped their game this summer season. Do you think they are finally feeling the pressure of having a certain Spanish chain now open in Sydney and Melbourne? They are certainly moving in the right direction.. 

Looking Ahead - Early Fall Inspirations 2011

A lunchtime trip to Selfridges almost ended in disaster when I saw too many new season wants and had to get out of there fast. Instead I opted for a little online preview and thought if I share it with you it's almost as good as handing over the credit card without the guilt.. right?

Last days of Summer...

Dress: Zara

Belt: Sportsgirl

Lipstick: MAC Candy Yum-Yum with MAC Magenta Lipliner

Unfortunately the Northern Summer is coming to an and and we still haven't had that many great days here in London. I understand now the joke I read about summer in England being 3 days of sun and that's it! It really feels like that here. I have convinced Nels to let me book a last minute trip to Spain to catch the last few rays on the Med next week and we were in luck - our trip coincided with a few friends attending La Tomatina in Valencia so I will finally check that one off the list! If only today could be as bright and sunny as my dress...

It's rainy and grey in London today... summer here has been an absolute disappointment after an initial flirtation in April with the sun. Trying to convince my other half to spend some time in Spain before the sun disappears completely. I'll leave you with some colourful images that made my day a little brighter...

The photo that sealed my obsession with this Therese Rawsthorne shirt (*sigh* why didn't I just buy it from Tuchuzy when I was in Australia in Jan..)

If anyone has a wardrobe I would love to steal it would be hers. Such an amazing mix of International and Australian designers.
