I'm fully optimistic for a brilliant Summer. I have all sorts planned including a trip to Paris, V festival, Wakestock and a girly holiday. But I am most optimistic for the British weather. I think that since we suffered through that horrendous and somewhat unexpected Winter, that nature will reward our survival skills with glorious sunshine this Summer... however, my friends do tell me I'm blindly optimistic all the time... usually to my disadvantage.
Anyway, in my usual 'rose tinted glasses' style, I took the hour of sunshine we had today in my stride and dressed the part. I even drove round town with my car's roof down and a bit of Avril Lavigne blasting out my speakers (because I'm THAT cool.)
Here's my outfit:
I have to admit that I'm irrevocably in love with this cardigan. It's from Topshop (pause for sarcastic comment and roll of the eyes) and it set me back a hefty £45 when I couldn't afford it... but it's gorgeous.
My outfit is pretty much the basis of my style for the rest of this month. The chunky, wool cardigans have been put in the spare room wardrobe to make way for slightly thinner but still warm cottons. The tights of course are still a staple in my wardrobe but I've gone for high waisted shorts paired with a lacy, see-through cream top. It's long sleeved so slightly added warmth! I wore the outfit with my black ankle boots but I feel that it would have been better paired with a pair of brogues... unfortunately, mine kill my feet. Still, I do genuinely feel in a better mood when I know I have a nice outfit on. However, by the end of my day I had ate far too much chocolate with the best friend, and therefore it didn't feel so sexy then... that was when the hoody and leggings made their inevitable appearance.
Before I go, (I promise I have better posts lined up) I need to ask 3 favours of you oh faithful readers.
1. If you read this blog, PLEASE tell your friends about it and anyone you think may enjoy it. I love knowing that people enjoy what I write, even if I have been neglectful recently.
2. Also, if you haven't already, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE become a 'follower' of my blog. If you go to the bottom of this webpage, you'll see a little link saying 'become a follower' and it really does just take 2 minutes. It would mean a lot to see if I can get my numbers up a bit!
3. If any of you are any good at HTML, please can you comment and let me know how on earth I get rid of the silly white borders that appear around my pictures. I have already tried adding border:0; and .no_border {border: 0;} but nothing seems to work. Sometimes I like the border, but I do NOT want it there for my next post. So please do let me know if you know!
Pour Maintenant, Au Revoir,
Tout Mon Amour,
Neen x
