Hey there peeps!
Well this summer has been a scorcher so far, and to be honest I've struggled with the temperature and have ended up wearing the same three strappy dresses on repeat a lot of the time! (This dress is two of them - I have it in plain black and navy polkadot. You can dress it up or down so many ways, with heels or flip flops, with or without a belt...)
My feet are also cut to bits from different sandals rubbing me in the heat, so I've had to wear my flip flops a lot. I'm still not complaining about the weather, though, it's just taken some adjustments for me to get used to it!
So to mix things up and add a bit of personality to the same-old strappy dresses, I've been wearing a lot of colourful bracelets and handbags - as you can see here! They also make me happy just looking at them - I love colourful accessories :-D
What are your summer essentials?
Let me know how you've been surviving this heat by leaving a comment below :-)
Keep cool and colourful!

It's no secret that I love pink, I love handbags, and so it's surely no shock that I've been drooling over these beautifully pink Furla bags recently. There are so many different shades of pink that I'm having a hard time choosing a favourite!
Bags, like jewellery and shoes, are one of my favourite ways of expressing my personality, adding fun and colour to an outfit. I don't think I'll ever have too many bags!
I have several mini bags and at first I found it difficult to get used to squeezing my belongings into them, but now I've got the knack of only taking the actual essentials, it's surprising how much you can actually fit in a mini bag!
Here are some of my fave pink Furla bags (including minis) - which do you prefer?

Currently lusting over this cute, tropical little fella - the Furla Metropolis Toucan mini bag. Italian leather, silver hardware, and the coolest tropical toucan print. I imagine wearing this bag with a simple white summer dress and oversized gold statement earrings. Yes please!!

On a belated-birthday weekend away in Bath I experienced my very first visit to an Anthropologie store. Having lived in New Zealand for so long, I think I missed the Anthro-buzz when it became popular in the UK. Now I'm HOOKED!
I treated myself to a delightfully pink embroidered toucan headband by Namrata Joshipura. I am in LOVE with it and already want another one!

Colourful printed designer arm chairs by Paige Gemmel for Anthropologie - they would make a stunning statement piece in any living room. I want the pastel pink one for my bedroom!
Adorned with elaborate applique, Paige Gemmel's Palace Portrait chair makes a pretty talking point; accent with a feature cushion that matches on embellishment to emphasise the eclectic feel.
LOVE!
