Strawberries and Cream


After lunch today, in the spirit of Wimbledon and this warm weather we are having, I indulged myself and had fresh strawberries and raspberries with double cream and honey. With that in mind, I had a browse through some of the S/S 12 Cruise/Resort collections and picked out a few strawberry and cream hued pieces.

Marchesa. Beautiful pleating, sumptuous colour, perfect for a wedding or garden party.

Valentino. I'm a bit of a sucker for bows so I fell in love with the detail on the back of this dress. I'd wear it bare foot for long walks on the beach or with strappy sandals to lunch with friends.

Mulberry. Structured enough for the office worn with simple courts but fun with the little socks for evening. If it gets a little chilly, make like a fifties house wife and throw a cardigan over your shoulders.

Alberta Ferretti. A tailored suit is a must for any woman's wardrobe and this one is bang on trend with the cropped trouser and textured jacket.

Erdem. Lace, tick. Fitted shape, tick. Stand-out colour, tick. What more could you want for a dinner date on a balmy evening?

Temperley. This outfit could be worn time and again mix and matched with the rest of your wardrobe. The trousers can be worn with thin knit sweaters, simple t-shirts and neutral coloured blouses and shirts. The delicate blouse would look equally good with a high-waisted skirt or jeans on the weekend.
