Spring has sprung!

Wow doesn't it feel like over the weekend it has turned from miserable winter to starting to head into spring? We didn't even have the heater on on Saturday night! The downside was I didn't even get out to enjoy the sunshine as I had a miserable cold and decided like a good little girl I would spend the weekend in doors getting better so I wouldn't feel like crap for work this week. I found I was so bored! I don't think I have had a whole two days in in ages and it is so boring! In fact I was so bored I completely head to tail cleaned the house- which is a good thing because my Christmas in July party is coming up (yes I know it is no longer July but I struggled to book everyone in earlier then mid-August!).

Anyway in honour of what I feel is getting closer to spring, here is what I am looking forward to being able to wear in spring! (especially since I have joined works biggest looser competition today to get rid of those winter kg's and get ready for swimwear season!)



Mango dress in Scarlet Collection, Etsy 70's Olive Green Boots, my vintage Dior's, Laliv Jewelry and More necklace & Mimco Bergman Satchel

Take a cool long sip of Hotel Azucar...

How could you not want to visit a place where the national drink is Tequila, the sun is always shining, the people are always singing and food is fresh and spicy? And to top it off you're not only allowed but expected to Nap during the day!



Hotel Azucar off the coast of Mexico is a fantastic mix of local vibrancy and chic luxury... and I so want to be there! With only 20 bungalows and miles of beach you feel like you're in a private sanctuary and with a restaurant that specialises in fresh seafood and wild freshwater prawns you feel like you're in heaven!

A padro ready to greet you on arrival... :)



Restaurant... fantastic mix of local colour and design.



The beautiful pool that over looks the pristine beach...




I love these change rooms for the pool!




Your own private bungalow... Fantastic mix of stark white rendered walls, stone walls and straw roofs...



Cool calming interiors... a great way to escape the heat for your siesta.





Your private balcony and hammock- the perfect place to sit a sip those beers...



Love this outdoor shower! That bucket is fantastic!



If you feel over worked from your long walks and lazing by the pool- they have a spa where you can meditate, do yoga or have one of their amazing treatments...



Their outdoor library for you to enjoy during your stay or have a few beers at!





Or enjoy the games that they supply... and who can go past a parrot when you're in Mexico?! :)



Enjoy your weekends my lovelies... this is where I will be- if only in my mind! xox

Going to the chapel....

Ok I should probably say right out there... I am single and not even close to getting married, so this is probably going to look a little obsessive... but lately I have been becoming more and more engrossed in wedding blogs and by the amazing styling and detail that go into weddings these days... not only that but the fantastic different takes everyone has on their day. Anyway, today I thought I would show some amazing fashions that I am loving for the bride, most of which are not the big puffy white dress!

LOVING....

Ok just a note I am pale so not good in white, love this dress by Gucci- love the vintage styling and the colour is amazing!



These two I think are beautiful and simple- great for a summer wedding and just my style of the 'white dress' without being a marang!





Very Audry and looks great with the yellow! I also love that sign since it was a town hall wedding...





I love this dress but mainly because it reminds me of my best friend's dress from Tea Rose which was stunning!



My best friend as a stunning bride...



Oh well it might be a bit longer before I can see myself in one of these- but at least it is fun looking! xox

Images Care of Green Wedding Shoes.

Colour me happy...

After yesterday's post I went on a search to find some colour to put in the house... and have a look at someway of recreating that amazing coastal beach chic...

Reminder of inspiration...



Loving for the dinning room... Anthropologie Mina Tablecloth



With this great plate Paper Pretender also from Anthropologie...



Intermingled with this great plate for colour and texture.... Sliced Persimmon Dinnerware



Loving these glasses! Fleur-De-Lys Tumbler...



I would then put a succulent on the table for a centrepiece...



Then it really feels like it needs this amazing dish to top it off... My pick would definitely be this Snapper and Fennel Tagine!



So to be honest I feel like it is a mix between boho and folk and beach and middle eastern, but isn't that the best way to decorate? :)
