Mellow Yellow Shoes bring a ray of sunshine
With the clocks going forward in the early hours, it will be official, British Summertime will begin. And although I have seen more than a few jokes on Twitter this morning (mainly about getting an extra hour of daylight to play in the snow), I am really hoping that the arrival of BST will also mean the weather starts to improve and that we finally get to see a bit of Spring sunshine.

(Good) Friday Shopping Focus – Evans Live Unlimited
In February I attended the first Plus Size Fashion Weekend on behalf of F&F Clothing. One of the best things about the day was getting the opportunity to see some new ranges up close, and one of those ranges was the fabulous ‘Live Unlimited‘. With fellow blogger Caroline from Curvy Wordy, I had lots of fun examining the range and picking out my favourite pieces. The Live Unlimited range is now available in store and online for Evans, and I think it is absolutely great. This is such a grown up range, feminine without being girly.

Boden – Top Ten Dresses for Every Occasion
I am totally besotted by the latest collection of dresses from Boden. Featuring a mouthwatering palette of colour, and a range of styles to suit all tastes and body shapes, Boden are again showing that when you need a dress for an occasion, they are definitely the shopping destination of choice. The 60s styling which seems to becoming Boden’s trade mark is still around, with the Wardour dress having that early 1960s silhouette favourited by Doris Day in those Rock Hudson paired comedies like Pillow Talk and Lover Come Back. The zesty yellow of the lace dress is sheer sixties ‘dollybird’ and has been styled as such, think Brigitte Bardot…
