Where for art thou, Spring?

It might be cold and I may still be walking to work with mascara streaming down my face because it's so windy and my eyes constantly water but today I decided to whip out a brand new pair of floral trousers from Very in the hope of Spring making a swift return. I actually think it may have worked as the sun has actually appeared this afternoon. I'm ashamed to say yet ANOTHER pair of printed trousers have made it into my wardrobe but I couldn't not pop these into my basket while browsing the site last week and at only £25! I went for a monochrome shirt and these gorgeous purple pointed heels for yet another pop of colour with them.

REVIEW: Simply Be Military Jacket

A few weeks ago the lovely Hanna emailed me to ask if I wanted to review the Military Jacket for Simply Be with her and a couple of my other favourite bloggers and of course I jumped at the chance. Simply Be sent us all this lightweight camouflage jacket and it's safe to say I love it. What with this horrendous cold weather it's perfect for layering up underneath a big winter coat and keeping you warm.

With a button fastening and two large side pockets, the jacket also comes with a drawstring waist so if you want to give yourself more shape and clinch in the waist you can. It's a perfect length and I'd go one size up and wear slightly oversized . I wore mine with a floral shirt to tackle some clashing prints and my amazing Chloe jeans (also from Simply Be).

Smartening Up.

In my quest to start wearing things that are in my wardrobe and remain unworn, I picked out this Simply Be white shirt this morning which I bought well over 2 months ago and was still sitting in there with the tags on! I've raved before about how amazing I find Simply Be jeans and I'm wearing some boyfriend ones with the shirt today and a floral blazer from River Island. Office chic shall we call this look? I'm rarely seen in a shirt so this makes a nice change, and of course, some sparkle was added in the form of these lace up diamante Topshop pumps.
