Inspiration. Summer shorts.

Don't you just wish you could wear shorts every day? Since I live in the UK I can only dream about it... There might be two occasions a year to actually put them on! But there's something about shorts that makes them the most comfortable item of clothing ever. Is it because we wear them as careless children? Is it because you don't have to mind the way you get out of the car (as opposed to doing so when wearing a short skirt)? Or is it the fact that we normally bring them with us on our holiday trips?

There are so many varieties of shorts as well. Something to suit everyone. You can either go for a little denim number with a white t-shirt or smart tailored ones with a matching blazer. They are great for tidying up your garden as well as going out. Your shorts can be leather or silk. They look great with trainers and heels.

There are just a couple of rules to follow. Rule number one: leave your bum-cheeks covered. Seriously, no one fancies seeing the bottom of your beautifully shaped and perky cheeks hanging out. Leave something for the imagination. Rule number two: take care of your legs. Make sure you exfoliate and moisturise the skin regularly. It does make a difference. Exfoliation makes your skin look radiant, smooth, younger. If you do that to your face why not apply the same rule to the legs? Even if they aren't Heidi Klum -like long and Jennifer Lopez-like tanned, they will still look better when they are looked after.

What's the recipe to have a good day on a miserable day? Dress happy! Put your happiest clothes on and you'll instantly feel much better. Today I'm wearing a pair of very floral trousers with a simple white top and a pink blazer. Heels are necessary! Go on, make your day happy!

Acne paper rules! / brunch with Kate

healthy snacks / rainbow cake by D. and me 

birthday boy! / the best shoes ever

How was your week? Mine was, again, filled with good food and good people. I've re-descovered trainers as well. They are taken out for walks now outside the gym! Best buy ever. Yesterday I went to a special birthday party where we celebrated by friend's son turning 2. Gosh, he's soooo oooold! For that special occasion D. and I baked a rainbow cake. It came out soooo... happy. And for people that actually like magazines with contents as opposed to millions of pictures - I do recommend Acne Paper. Monday again? How is that possible...
