Brigitte Bardot and St-Tropez!

This week I made a trip to St-Tropez in the South of France. Brigitte Bardot who made her home in St-Tropez is my inspiration this week! Brigitte is incredibly sexy and glamorous with her skimpy little play suits, big wavy hair, big sunglasses and big floppy hats. An iconic image of Brigitte Bardot in St-Tropez is of her carrying a cute wicker basket to the beach. I really enjoyed shopping for her look. Topshop is always a winner for the 50's and 60's look. I also found some further treats in the high street stores, see below to get the Brigitte Bardot look!

Bright as you like! Block colour dresses at the Burberry Party

This week I decided to brighten my wardrobe up! I was inspired by the bright block dresses seen at the Burberry party at the Serpentine gallery. My wardrobe is very pale with white and nude colours and I am always a little afraid to buy a block colour. I am really glad I took the risk this week as I love the items I found and they were a fantastic bargain too with two of the dresses purchased for under £10!! With my holiday booked in a couple of weeks time, these fun and bright dresses will definitely be packed in the suitcase!
