Hello spring!

We are now in March and spring has officially arrived, although at times I don't think Manchester is 100% sure on what season it is, there has still been some wet and chilly days lately but I'm hoping it starts to warm up soon. I am sooo ready for summer, I mean aren't we all!

So last week I got the pleasure of shooting with an old friend, she kindly got some outfit shots for me using her camera. So we headed over to Northern Quarter in Manchester to get some good shots. Unfortunately the Manchester weather wasn't on our side, so we did have to hurry before the rain returned. We're hoping to shoot again soon when the weather warms up, so watch this space.


                           


I love the transitional pieces that are available at this time of year. I had my eyes on these suede yellow booties, and when I walked into Zara and there was one size 6 left I knew it was a sign! Plus I'm a sucker for a statement shoe. I must admit I was on edge wearing them due to Manchester's rainy weather, so I think they may have to wait to be worn again until its dryer. I think they will really compliment my new gingham ruffle mini skirt, which is also from H&M.

Its all about gingham this season and I am loving it, a pattern that you can truly carry through from a day to night look. I've already got three new gingham pieces and we're not far into spring. I just need that sun to make an appearance so I can show them off.


                             



Mixing multiple trends is something I often like to do and that's why this particular shirt caught my eye. As you will have noticed from recent posts, I have been showing my appreciation for bell sleeves which were seeing on at the runways shows and in stores at the moment. Which led me to get another bell sleeve item, bell sleeves, slogan and pinstripe all in one.. win win.
 
To finish this look, I teamed my shirt and boots with my failsafe Topshop Jamie jeans.
 
Finally the fish nets are still around whether you are going for a cool day time look, or adding a touch of grunge to your night out outfit, there are some great options for fishnet pop socks and tights available on Asos and for bargain prices head to Primark.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday people!
