Bird prints are bang on trend this season, check out the Telegraphs Cu-Cool bird prints for designer and high street offerings available now:

Here are my favourite picks of this trend:

Helmut Lang at Matches Fashion £150

Issa at Net-A-Porter, £275

Last year I picked up this little blouse/short jacket for a cu-cool £1 from the local high street ethnic shop-I'll be wearing it again this season!!

Will you be in bird or animal prints this summer?

Claude Montana, Being a scarlet woman

Back in the 80s, I had a red blazer with a zipper front, which I wore endlessly and loved a lot, even though it was from the local market.

So last week when I found this gorgeous Claude Montana vintage 80s wool blazer for only £2.50 at the boot sale, it brought back memories of my first red one:

This one fits like a glove and now its been dry cleaned is ready to wear-I can't wait!!
Red is so on trend too-check out this article by the Daily Mail showing different ways of bringing scarlet into your wardrobe.

Will you be a scarlet woman this season?

Outfit Post-Layers and Khaki

In March, I bought these khaki cropped trousers by Warehouse for only £1.99 from Sense charity shop and the black cropped tee is by Cheap Monday and was £2.49 from the Salvation Army-very 80s and perfect for a layering style:

My shoes are vintage wedge sandals by Marks and Spencer, which I thrifted a few years ago.

I was pleased to get these khaki trousers as they fit the season trend, but I didn't want pockets on the side, so opted for a cropped style instead.

Shopping My Wardrobe-Spring Jackets

Following on from my previous post, jackets are definitely a Spring staple for your wardrobe-check out what the Times Lisa Armstrong recommends.

Here are two jackets in my wardrobe that I'll be wearing this summer-they are both cropped in style and 3/4 length in the sleeves:

Pink Burberry blazer

White linen blazer

Blazers and smart jackets are so on trend for this summer and can be paired with jeans, dresses, trousers or skirts for a chic, stylish look-wherever you go.

What is your season 'go to' piece?

Sunday Sales Shopping

Well, after months of waiting and tracking one down in my size, I finally won this Kate Moss for Topshop Liberty print jacket on Ebay this Sunday.

I've been eyeing it for ages and knew I'd only be able to get it via Ebay, so can't wait for it to come so I can pair it with skinny jeans and body con dresses too.

At the boot sale I scored a vintage 80s Claude Montana red fitted, structured jacket for only £2.50, pictures to follow once the jacket has been dry cleaned.

I've so many jackets already, but I haven't a red one or a floral one-so its ok, right??

What do you have a lot of, but still continue to invest in for your wardrobe?
