Light And Flowy...

Could these fabulous Zimmermann dresses have arrived at a better time?! The sun is shining and it's certainly time for outdoor living...and you know that means beautiful lightweight cotton dresses in pretty soft prints...lucky that's what the Zimmermann sisters do so well!!






Such a pretty shape...and lovin' that not-quite-animal-print-animal-print!






One of the most perfect dresses of the season...so versatile...






...wear it a little easy for day...






...and add a bit of interest at night...somehow showing less skin is more alluring...hey, we don't make the rules!;)






And we do love the shorter, looser version...for those of us with height issues...you know, if your friends 12yr old daughter is the same height as you...okay, so she's about an inch taller but who's measuring?!!






Light and airy...chambray maxi...too comfortable for words...






Love a bit of chambray!





Love 'em all!!

Got Wood?!

Sooo super excited to see the new Woody Allen movie Midnight In Paris!!!! As a massive Woody fan, I pretty much get, well, wood, every time he releases a new film!! I've heard that Midnight In Paris is slightly more commercial than his usual suspects, yet still oozes that Allen wit...







Gil and Inez travel to Paris as a tag-along vacation on her parents' business trip. Gil is a successful Hollywood writer but is struggling on his first novel. He falls in love with the city and thinks they should move there after they get married, but Inez does not share his romantic notions of the city or the idea that the 1920s was the golden age. When Inez goes off dancing with her friends, Gil takes a walk at midnight and discovers what could be the ultimate source of inspiration for writing. Gil's daily walks at midnight in Paris could take him closer to the heart of the city but further from the woman he's about to marry.Written by napierslogs




And what an amazing cast he's chosen....Owen Wilson is a bit cute really!




Keep you posted!!
