As I said yesterday, there is so much I am looking forward to and one of them is spending two weeks of summer sailing around Sicily with George's family. I am dreaming about it daily with this recent sunny weather. Just waking up to the gorgeous ocean as our backyard, reading a billion books, sunbaking on the boat, and jumping off for a swim whenever we get too hot, wandering around the streets of Sicily and just spending time together in the sun.

While doing all that; these are the exact type of outfits that I imagine myself wearing while on the boat (minus bikinis). I had to include stripes. What is a sailing trip without wearing stripes? Lucky this season it's all about mixing and matching all different types of stripes.

It was such a struggle getting this post out. I think I procrastinate in every form of my life, even with things which I love like blogging haha. It took me ages to find all the perfect pieces and then to put all the collages together so thats the reason why this post is so late (I just got a comment from my mum on facebook asking when my post was coming haha). But it was all worth it in the end, because here I am feeling so inspired. And wishing I could just go and buy every item right now.

It is always good to dream. Hope everyone has been having a great day/night.

Such a great post! I love the white and stripe looks the most but would not necessarily go to those items in the shops, you have styled them so well. xx

Courtney said...

Such a wonderful post! Love the items, want them all! xx

Brooke said...

Right, every single thing I like in this post is Topshop! I feel an online shop coming on. This is bad. I should not be spending Aussie dollars on pounds, even if the conversion is good these days.

Damn you says my bank account (and probably my husband too!)
