It's about time - too long away

It's about time I get back to these pages, I've been away too long. What's been happening to you girls out there? Having a great summer in the sun showing off the 'pins' in shorty shorts, lovely shoulders and collar bones in beautiful strapless dresses, hourglass figures in pencil skirts and frilly tops, what's your own formula.With a hectic schedule of work, socials, shopping, and everything else that comes with amazing weather and longer hours in the day, I haven't been as drawn to my computer enough to give you the goss on the streets. The Summer sales have begun and it's time to grab some bargains particularly if you have been disciplined enough to hold off on that one item you've been eyeing in the shops. Unfortunately , the lucky ones are the sizes 14 upwards cos the bargains to be had are on the current season's items (go get yourself some junk in the trunk and become curvy).I have a few bits and ends to show you as my 'eye candy' in the shops. I am currently drawn to 'Warehouse' (http://www.warehouse.co.uk/) because they have pieces that work individually and look fantastic on any size or shape.This slinky all-in-one jumpsuit is my absolute favourite because it gives a drapy silhouette on the body hiding any bags but giving emphasis to the curves a woman has. It's also funky and paired with a clutch and skimpy heels , good enough to head off into the night. With the high weather temperatures currently experience, the fabric would help with providing the coolness needed against the skin.My next pick is a silk and stud pocket dress which has an appeal to me because of its pockets and stud detail. the next line is beautiful and the silhouette once again meets the current trend of not-so-tight dresses (a bit of space doesn't hurt). This is perfect for that special dinner date you're looking forward to.Considering my love for daytime outings and socials, this silk bib dress is perfect for a summer day and looking fab is the code. If it gets chilly, a light cardigan draped on the shoulders gives a sophisticated look. Smashing. I loved the Sex and the City movie and it's left me in the frilly layered mood, hence my next choice. Lace-tiered dresses are my current fave and this dress follows the style . Carrie Bradshaw has rubbed off on me and I am ready to take the world by storm (aren't you?)I love structured dresses and this Miss Selfridge (www.missselfridge.com/) Victoria Dress which is a 2 for 1 combination of a skirt and frilly blouse gives the right spin to a great figure, fabulous. All girls with an hourglass figure need to grab hold of this, fast.I can't get away from the white and black basic dresses that have graced the windows of stores everywhere. I love this H&M (http://www.hm .com/) Monochrome dress and its simplicity is its beauty.Phew, It feels good to be back here sharing my spoils with you. I have had a wonderful time catching up with you.Don't forget to catch the movie 'Maid of Honour' featuring our very own McDreamy from Grey's Anatomy, and of course 'Sex and the City'. I am looking forward to catching 'Hancock' featuring Will Smith, 'Wanted' featuring James McAvoy and Morgan Freeman, and light-hearted 'Mamma Mia' featuring Pearce Brosnan. It's turning out to be an epic summer, must enjoy.I am going incognito for a few weeks as I go on holiday but I intend to have some stories to tell and amazing looks to show.Till then, Ciao
