Today marks 4 weeks exactly until spring day! You can definitely feel a new warmth in the sun in the middle of the day, and the garden is just about to burst into new growth.
Spring clothes are slowly filtering into the shops, replacing the reams and reams of grey we have been subjected to over the past 3 months. Yes, I have to confess that I have been one who have maybe taken this tred a little too far, but am now so over wearing boring grey.
But one new spring trend that I am really looking forward to is the return of Breton stripes. Click here for some very interesting reading on the history of the stripe Francais a la Chanel. (that is so not a grammatically correct French phrase. Please excuse me, Alliance Francaise.)
Another great place to visit if you like stripes is the Lanalou blog. She's giving away a candy striped bag from Quote Studio. Forget spring, this is the perfect beach bag and just looking at it makes me so excited for those long days to be spent lazing in the summer sunshine and swimming in the warm sea.
