Stripes and florals

I keep seeing everywhere outfits where there is a complete contrast in the patterns and textures of the different items, for example a striped breton t-shirt with a floral skirt. I am mentally compiling different looks from items in my wardrobe and new ones that I need ha, ha. I think that this is more of a spring/summer look and can imagine this working well when there is less need for coats and tights.

Until then I thought I would mix it up a little bit and as we were off to see my lovely friend and her babies I put on a simple striped blue t-shirt which I had a few years ago from a little range at Whistles (I forget the name) and my 'boyfriend' (should that be husband?) fit jeans. I popped on my chunky floral necklace, which has similar pastel colours, and was good to go. Or at least I thought, in the 5 minutes before we left the house the twins pulled on the necklace about 50 times so I took it off to save for a more practical time, boo!

Looks I'm loving - peplum

I have been loving peplum style tops for a while now but am unsure if they would suit me as they stick out at the hips and I'm not sure I want to wear something that sticks anything out. Surely this goes against the way that us girls normally dress? Anyway, I have been browsing a few and have found 3 covering different price points. What do you think?

Splurge - Whistles £85



 Save - Zara £9.99





Midway - Next £24

Striped Sunday

I hope you have been enjoying my updated blog and Facebook page. If you haven't already, look for 'Sarah Style' on Facebook for recent updates, photos and little snippets. If I could work out how to link to my page from the blog then I would! I will work on that some more tonight, I am trawling google and youtube for advice but if you have any then please pass it my way!

Since sorting my wardrobe and finding some treasures I'd forgotten about I decided to wear one of my favourite (similar here) Zara tops that I have had for a while. I also wore an old striped Whistles cardigan (similar here) and my Gap outlet jeans. 

I got hubby to take some shots this morning and we did have a bit of a laugh doing them and the twins were laying on the bed looking at us puzzled!
