1/ ok, just so you know…I had a Oh My God kind of moment when I spotted these Lille lace-ups

2/Boden has some great shirts like this denim top (similar to the one above) and this Astrid top goes nicely with a skirt or trousers.

3/ Now that I have my Kaftan dress which I love, next on my shopping list is this gorgeous Palm Beach top. This broderie top from Boden spotted in this article about the Violet Bakery in East London looks fab too.

4/While Mila thought my dark brown nail varnish last week, looked a bit Goth, I thought it looked pretty cool ;-)

5/ and I’m glad jupe-culottes* are back in fashion. I remember my mum wearing them to go to work when I was a teen. It’s a great option if you’re not comfortable showing off your legs in denim shorts and they are usually very flattering.

I love this chambray version for the beach and this culotte (jupe-culotte whatever) from Hush is a bit longer. This colourful Cara skirt looks great too!

*I know you call them culottes in English but in French culotte means knickers and the idea of walking around in my underwear doesn’t quite sit with me.
