When elegance is required

I have to admit my wardrobe contains a lot of Witchery. I tend to shop there quite frequently (far too frequently actually). I was in my local store on the weekend and was hoping to check out the new kids' range but sadly there was nothing in store (I ended up buying a beautiful silk dress for myself so not a complete waste of time!). I had spotted this very smart blazer for Master 5 earlier online and was hoping to snare it for our upcoming trip to Dubai.

It would have looked perfect at the Burj Al Arab - the 7 star hotel we are going to for afternoon tea - which has a strictly "elegant" dress code.

I also found these great suede shoes from Mini Me Sydney that will look perfect teamed back with it...

I love the tan and navy ones...

And the navy ones...

And the tan and aqua ones...

Yes, I think the tan and aqua ones are my favourite. Very Gucci. Very gorgeous! And oh so perfect.

Almost swimming weather...

I'm so looking forward to Summer and the warmer weather that I have already got my children their first new swimmers for the season (yes, we are only 7 days into Spring, I know). I've chosen beautiful pieces from my friend, Ali's new range - a Little Blossom full piece swimsuit with matching sunshirt (pictured above) for my daughter and the Rugger red and navy sunshirt with a navy trunk (pictured below) for my son. I'm loving the Euroleg trunk for my son - it so smart and much more practical for swimming than boardies.

If you like these new designs check out Ali's website - Babes in the Shade - but don't delay as I know she is selling out fast. Her sunshirts are the best  - long-sleeved, UPF 50+, chlorine resistant and stylish!

Look out Summer here we come!
