Olivia Palermo wearing a Peplum




The peplum is going to be huge for Spring Summer 2012  and as usual the exquisite Olivia Palermo is already ahead of the game and has been sporting the trend. Whether on a skirt, dress, jacket or blouse, the peplum was all over the catwalks and will be the 'must have' shape for the upcoming season. Be on the look out for peplums now! I will do a post soon on peplum shapes available on the highstreet.

Chanel has got me in the mood for spring


In the couple of weeks, when choosing a colour for my nails, I've been attracted to bright summery colours or soft pastels, but never actually painting them on as i felt it was a little too early!The weather is too cold and it still feels wintery out. Last week I had a dark burgundy on my nails and every time I looked at them they didn't feel right. It's time to bust out the spring colours! So yesterday I painted my nails in a bright mint green and I feel so refreshed! Spring has sprung, at least as far as my nails are concerned.

On the Wishlist - snakeskin shoes


Just spotted these beauties on topshop.com 
 I love them so much, It's the pointy heel, the snake print, the height, everything. They would be perfect paired with my blue skinny jeans, loose black jersey top and some statement earrings. I would buy them but I don't go out enough to justify adding to my heel collection, and sadly I'm not one of those glamourous ladies who wears heels during the day.
Maybe I'll treat myself at the end of February if they are still in stock.
