My new obsession is Culottes!  They're going to be huge for Spring/Summer this year as we've seen on the runway at Mulberry, House of Holland, Eudon Choi (all below) and a plenty more, not to mention some designers across the pond but as I'm British, I like to think we do it best (it being everything, lol!). I've also seen plenty of amazing styles from our fave high street brands at all the press days I've been to.  These ones are from Topshop and are a premium satin so they're pretty heavy and also quite thick so ideal for wearing now.  I've got some natural tights on to keep the old shins warm and teamed with a snuggly jumper; I'm so in love with this look!  I'm so obsessed with culottes that I've found a few patterns and I think I'm going to try and design and make a pair to wear to London Fashion Week, I'll keep you posted on the progress of this project as I haven't done any sewing in quite a while now!

I'm off on a mini Blogger road trip!  Today I'm headed to the pretty land of Rochester in Kent to abuse all of it's historicness for some blog shoots, armed with a car full of clothes and possibly some Pringles (yay!).  I'm going to be introducing some Spring trends into my posts over the next week.  The sales are pretty much fizzling out in most stores and new season is taking prime position so I couldn't help but purchase a few pastel numbers!
