Full of the joys of Spring


It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining and not a cloud to be seen in the sky. It's official Winter is over (well in my eyes it is anyway).
.
I'd been waiting so patiently for a slightly warmer day to occur, each morning I would open the curtains to bitter disappointment (and cold), but today - Hooray! I could wear my pretty floral dress (£5 Primark)
.
I thought it sensible to layer it over a long sleeve top for both warmth and decency, and added tights and boots to demonstrate that I wasn't totally deluded about the time of year. This cardigan is one that I bought last year in Sainsburys for about £3 and then found I had nothing to wear it with so I was thrilled to discover how perfectly it picked out the green in my dress.
My nail varnish (Coral by Nails Inc) was kindly sent to me by Laura from A Daisy Chain Dream and it matches the flowers in the print so well.
I'm so glad thatthe weather seems to be taking a turn for the better after such a miserable Winter, all I can say is, roll on Summer!
