Hello Summer


(I hope you like this friendly little summer pic i took in Parc Monceau yesterday! I took it on my iPhone using new app 'Hipstomatic'. Well worth downloading if you are looking to achieve the indie cool of the lomo without any actual effort/photography skills. Hello you lazy hipsters.)

On this beautiful bank holiday there are two things occupying my mind: sunshine and summer plans. What better way to think of summer plans than by preemptive holiday shopping? I know you all agree my little rosettes. In celebration of the coming of summer and my recent arrival back to UK shores (UK stores?) I give you, my (primarily TOPPERS based) Summer obsessions...

1. This oversized denim shirt is a gem in terms of giving off that breezy summer look with zero effort. I just bought one yesterday and am currently crossed legged on my bed rocking it over black leggings and a white tee. It is comfy and it make me feel a bit like a rancher, but not in a miley cyrus in that film she was in (not the one where she is running around in the sea with that hottie, the one where she goes home and speaks all southern and rides a horse) way. Thank God.

2. Topshop make-up just recently hit the shelves. Although in my opinion the jury is still out on the actual make-up products, i am ALL OVER the cheap and cheerful nail varnishes. Any pastel matte shades are good but this turquoise number is my particular fave.

3. Speaking of pastels, has anyone ever not wanted this Miu Miu summer number?

4. In terms of wear-ability and super trendiness, these strappy numbers by oh so trendy French brand The Kooples are also a wise investment for this summer. And by 'wise investment' I obviously mean 'way in which i shall fritter away my student loan'.

I think that is all for today, as i warned you, the sunshine outside is sparkling through my velux winderz, drawing me outside, so that will be all for now. I hope you enjoyed this first post, even if it was entirely clothing based (not my original intention). Keep on Reading, and let me know what you think!
