I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that this winter has
felt like the longest one ever! Just when it seemed like we were going
to be enjoying some warmth, the Arctic winds and snow are back with a
vengeance, and I've resorted to digging out some of my favourite cosy
pieces in a vain attempt to keep warm. Having said that, I'm also
determined to will spring into existence, layering up with
some bright colours and pretty prints to try and feel a little more new season ready. With this in mind, my outfit from the start of the week
featured one of my favourite recent purchases- something which I'm sure
will be perfect for the warmer weather (if it ever makes an appearance!)

Blouse- Celia Birtwell for Uniqlo
Jeans- Topshop
Boots- Topshop
Watch- Olivia Burton
As
soon as I saw the Celia Birtwell for Uniqlo collection, this blouse
rocketed to the top of my wishlist. Not only is the pattern beautiful,
but the vivid colour will make it a real summer essential, and it's also
something which will co-ordinate really nicely with the rest of my
wardrobe (especially the matching trousers which may have accidentally
found their way into my shopping basket when the collection launched
last Thursday!) Suffice it to say then, that this was not the only piece
from the Celia for Uniqlo range which I snapped up, and I can't wait to
feature the rest of my purchases in future posts as and when the thaw
into spring begins (if indeed it ever does!!!) At the start of the week
I teamed this blouse with a staple pair of jeans, swiftly adding a
jumper before leaving the house- definite proof that winter is back with
a bite!
How are you adapting your spring purchases for this chilly snap? And did you pick anything up from the Celia Birtwell for Uniqlo range?

Looove this shirt Sarah! I think I might have to accidentally trip and fall into Uniqlo tomorrow (payday yay!) and snap up a few pieces - I adore the little dresses. Love the contrast of the blouse/boots/watch. (:
