Spring Must Have - Ark's Vintage Levi's Denim Shorts

Wow, so yesterday was the first day of Spring...I don't know if it was official or not, but it hit 18 degrees  and was the first time the sun's been out for a while.  As its a bit of a rarity to enjoy a sunny Sunday in the UK, especially in March, I spent it how the rest of the country did - crammed into a traditional pub garden to enjoy a refreshing drink under the much needed sunshine!

Too hot for leather jackets
However, I was completely inappropriately dressed in jeans, strappy top and a leather jacket and just sat and baked. It made me think that it's finally time to get my spring/summer wardrobe out. Though, there's a staple that I'm missing that I believe is an absolute must have for not just this Spring/Summer, but for many many to come.  A pair of Vintage Levis Denim shorts.

I've always been a huge fan of denim shorts in the Summer as they go with everything and are super comfortable.  But, these are the absolute classics.  I was having a browse on www.ark.co.uk and they have a lovely choice in all different sizes and at the bargain price of £19.99.  This suits me as every time I go to a Vintage shop in Spitalfields market they're always way over-priced AND out of my size...unless it's the most hideous design ever.

I love the look of the dark wash Levis denim shorts with frayed bottom edges.  I think they have the most classic styling and are best for Summer with bright loose t-shirts. Because of the high legged shorts feature (they're jeans cut into shorts) I think its best to match with a more covered up top as otherwise it might be just a bit too much on show, and hey, it's never going to really get much hotter than 18 degrees over here.

For a slightly more dressy feel, I would match these high waisted Ark Levi's Vintage shorts in black with a white top and a big pair of Chanel Sunnies.  (My own are full of salt since taking a swim in them last summer *cry*).

So there you have it, the must haves on my Spring/ Summer shopping list!  I love that because they're classics they'll never go out of style.  And because they're from the brand Ark, you can choose the pair in the colour and size perfect for you, and not left to chance in the more expensive vintage stores.  Check out their full collection (here).


Do you guys own a pair of Levi's Vintage shorts?? Let me know what you match them with!

Lots of Love

Must have fragrances for this Summer


Hello there my lovely ladies!

I thought I would let you in on my top 3 favorite fragrances for this season.  These are all lightly scented perfumes with delicate touches of flowers and fruits that embody all there is to do with Summer.

See by Chloe
This new fragrance by Chloe is to die for. I was sitting in a cafe waiting for a friend when she walked in and when she sat down I was enveloped in her beautiful, fruity and light smell. This is definitely on my wish list as it has a fragrance which just oozes sensuality and is extremely feminine and fresh. It seems like a fragrance for all women who want to embrace their femminity with this fruity number.

Romance by Ralph Lauren
This is the most and subtle of the three fragrances. So beautiful, in fact, that I had to stop a shop assistant to ask what perfume she was wearing. This beautiful fragrance is extremely delicate and light so perfect of those of you who want to wear perfume without drowning in it.

Flower Bomb byViktor and Rolf

For me, this perfume is like a floral explosion, it is also a lot stronger than the other frangrances that I have chosen but it smells like a blast of Summer with every spritz.  I would reccomend thisto anyone who wants to make an entrance and have people ask you what you are wearing.
