I wore this outfit to a family do on Saturday, the main feature is totally the zigzag maxi skirt from Primark.  This was one of the pieces strategically placed at the entrance to the store.  The design literally stopped me while I was walking passed, I honestly had no intention of going in before I spotted it!  I think I'll get a lot of wear out of it though!

As I write this I have a bottle of Hawaiian Tropic cool aloe gel aftersun next to me, I've got about 10 million layers of it on and I'm still burning up!  Lesson learnt, don't rely on that dodgy old bottle of sun tan lotion from the back of the bathroom cabinet!  It's been so long since we've seen sunshine in the UK, I'm just not used to keeping up with the old sun tan lotion when I'm not on holiday!!

Sat in the sun on my lunch break!  |  Found this on an evening stroll, could be quite an interesting bounce with the threat of nettles!  |  Pylons!  |  You have GOT to drink Orangina when it's hot!  |  Beautiful bowls at the Moroccan market in Leeds  |  I've been loving pastel nails with a bit of sparkle, I've had yellow and pink variations of this look (Essie Lilacism and Barry M Hologram) all week  |  How the postman decided to 'hide' my glossybox this month!  |  A summery outfit!  |  Robin Hoods bay (where I got my sunburn!  Whahhhh!)

Brown Focco Bag - ebay £19.99


Like just about everyone last summer, I was never seen without my black ebay focco.  Alas, after pretty much non stop use the zip broke early this year, boo.  I was a little gutted but figured I'd definitely got my money worth, and at the end of the day it was only a cheap ebay bag.  Well skip forward 3 months and I found myself back on ebay clicking the buy it now button on a brown version!  I'd missed it more than I realised, it really is the perfect bag design and can hold just about anything you could want to carry!!

I bought from a different ebay seller and the slightly different to my black version, which features in many OOTD pictures (here and here).  For a start, I received a long strap with the tan version, which is always handy and looks great.  It has a really cute flower patterned lining too, and even though it has the usual gold hardware, the side zippy bits are much better designed - the zip on the black bag was always falling down!  

 Even though the black focco will always be my first love when it comes to ebay bags, I can see myself buying it in black again, I'm loving this light brown for summer!  Get ready to see seeing in many an outfit post!!
