A great lace mini

I went to Highpoint yesterday. Fashion wise, it was a frightening experience. When is okay to wear hotpants so short and tight that they look like bather bottoms with a crop top that is falling off oneself? I wish I could have shown some of those girls, who were clearly wagging school to show off their outfits, this lace mini. Yes. It is possible to be sexy and stylish at the same time! And no, you don't have to be almost naked to look hot.

Thank God I am no longer a teenager. It is much more fun being a self-righteous and opinionated old person.

Sophistication

Sometimes I worry about my somewhat childish taste in fashion. Bird print. Yippee! Love hearts? Even better! Stars. Yes please!

But you know what, there's a time and place for sophistication in every woman's wardrobe and I love the way Life with Bird do classics without even a hint of yawn-factor. Sure, the model looks kind of scary but I'm sure she's lovely when she smiles.

Rainbow bright

I apologise for conjuring up memories of those Rainbow Brite dolls that were big in the 80s, but what's not to love about this Zimmermann rainbow frock? I can't wait to throw it on with braided leather sandals on a warm sunny day. Or, you could dress it up for the races if you're so inclined. Fun, versatile and fashion forward.

Cup day classic

My pick for Cup Day. With a pair of dove grey Chie's perhaps? What do you think?

A day at the races

It's a sad fact that the races get a bit of a bad rap these days. Sure, drunk women walking home holding their shoes at 6pm is not a good look, but it doesn't have to be that way!

Pop into Frisck and you'll see that the races can still be about style and elegance. We have hats and headpieces and shoes and frocks galore that are gorgeous - just as race wear should be. Be inspired.

Peter Rabbit

Sometimes photos don't do me justice. Right now I bet you're thinking, just another pretty summer frock. Sure, I'm that too. But if you could see me in real life I know you'd be pleasantly surprised. For among the pretty spring flowers, cute little bunnies frolic and play.

Fleur Wood frock in store now. Come in and see her for yourself.

The best thing about Spring

The best thing about Spring time? Certainly not the weather - not at the moment anyway.

No, what makes Spring fabulous is a great print. Like this Fleur Wood frock. Wear to the races or just out and about. And pretend like it's sunny.

Summer shorts

Some lovely drapey shorts to wear with your lace Strummer blouse? Yes please!

Lovely in lace

I love lace. I'll always wear it, even when I'm putting Magic Silver White through my hair in the old people's home.

But right now I'm dreaming of this pretty sleeveless lace number by Strummer. Will be so cute with the shorts I'll be showing you later in the week.
