I am a sucker for monochrome, especially stripes, so when I saw this co-ord suit I just couldn't resist. I love the gathered waistline of the shorts and the gathered sleeves on the blazer make a nice little change to my usual jacket styles. I've seen quite a few nice striped sets around recently, but this one is by far my favourite.

Basic dressing is sometimes what summer is all about. No layers, no jackets and coats and scarves. Something simple like a logo tee and a little skirt is what I love about summer. I'm heading to America again in a few weeks for a mini road trip, and this is what my suitcase is going to consist of; the basics. But not boring basics.

With Glastonbury just wrapping up but still a summer full of amazing festivals ahead, what better time to show you guys my multi season festival styling. Because let's be honest, no matter what the bloody weather forecast is in the UK, it's going to be wrong. So when you're off for a few days away, camping and out in the elements, you need to be prepared. And stylish. Always stylish...

In case you hadn't noticed, yellow seems to be THE colour of summer. But it's got to be this kind of orangey yellow colour, not a wishy washy kinda yellow. And I was instantly drawn to this dress when I spotted it online and I thought I'd inject a bit of yellow into my summer wardrobe. I feel like I've reached the acceptable number of times I can say yellow in this post already....

With summer officially 3 days away, this weekends weather has NOT disappointed. As I write this, it's around 27 degrees outside and it's the perfect timing for getting a little dolled up for the sunshine. And this embroidered midi dress from River Island is the perfect little glam summer dress.
