Okay Scotland, I'm ready for the summer months. Hit me with your best shot!
Surfing.
Road trips (the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond)
Beach adventures.
Theme park trips.
Summer holidays.
Picnics & sunbathing in Queens Park.
Garden parties & BBQ's.
Fruit picking at Yonderton Farm.
That's just a handful of the reasons I'm looking forward to the warmer months. Not to mention the longer and lighter days - feel like they always make such a positive difference to your day to day routine.
I love the sun for making my hair go lighter, my freckles come out, and getting some colour around my tattoos which are normally hidden (calves and chest!) I also like the fact that a long forgotten section of my wardrobe gets to show it's pretty face again. I did some lovely imaginary online shopping and put together these two wishlists...
1. Roxy Sunglasses - £58
2. Tom Ford Sunglasses - £248.40
3. Marc Jacobs Sunglasses - £112.50
4. Alexander McQueen Sunglasses - £153
Some absolute belters from Sunglasses Shop. This summer I'm thinking big, plastic and retro a la Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion. Well, maybe apart from the last pair. I am a sucker for an aviator-esque frame.
1. Diane Von Furstenberg,Tara Dress - £345
2. Sensi Studio, Adrian Panama Hat - £128
4. Castaner, Diana Espadrilles - £85
5. Ondademar, Ania Anchor Print Bikini - £150
I perhaps went a bit bit out of my price range when it came to the above, but that's what a wishlist is all about - right? Matches Fashion have a gorgeous holiday shop up and running already which is conveniently split into Jet-set Go, Beach Kit, Day Tripper, Evening Star and Ski Style.
Hopefully I'm not too premature in my anticipation for summer and have got you looking forward to some good ol' sunshine too. I shall leave you with the song that my title is from (if anything, it might get you inspired to have a wee rave in your kitchen at 3pm on a sunday afternoon)
