If money was no object

I am constantly dreaming of being somewhere with a sunnier climate. It seemed too good to be true for the hot weather to last here in England right? I'm still bringing out the bare legs in spite of the rain. When I'm daydreaming of a hot country - usually when I'm squeezed in a tube carriage on my way home - I like to think about my ideal beach appropriate outfit. If I had endless pots of cash i'd opt for a beach outfit from Heidi Klein. I much prefer a bandeau style bikini top when I'm sunning myself and there's nothing worse than two glaring white strap marks ruining an evening outfit. I much prefer my tan lines hidden thank you very much. This straw bag is the perfect size for lugging around holiday essentials which always include a good book - the trashier the better - and an endless supply of sun cream. Wrinkles are not my friend. Finally a pretty cover up is vital for when you finally move from your sun lounger in search of some food. The waiters in the restaurant do not want to see me in my bikini!

Oh how I wish I was going away on another beach holiday! But i've heard it's 28 degrees in Warsaw so the bank holiday weekend will not be too shabby.

Have you had your summer holiday yet? If not, where are you off too?

Maybe next year I'll have no time

Outfit:
Black t-shirt crop top - Topshop
Green floral spilt midi skirt - Topshop
Gold heeled high sandals - c/o Boohoo

I saw this skirt on Robyn and decided I just had to have it. After I found out it had a matching crop top - hurry up payday! - I completely lost myself. I'm a complete sucker for matchy matchy! I quite fancy treating myself to this too to go with the skirt. Crop tops seem to be my new favourite thing at the minute. I'm not entirely sure why i've been converted as I don't really like showing my flesh. But I love the way they look with midi and high waisted skirts. As this is what the majority of my wardrobe is made up off I thought i'd better jump on the bandwagon! I went a bit overboard on the Topshop website with this months wages. I do have slight buyers remorse as I'm now skint but not enough to take it back! Next month it's back to being good as i've got New York to book in October and need all the money I can get. Exciting!

I'm wearing this outfit for a trip up to Lincoln to visit some family on Saturday. We're going out for lunch there and then onto a family party in the evening so I wanted something that I could dress down and up. I'm going to wear my Zara pointed flats during the day. They don't seem to be off my feet lately!

What do you have planned for the upcoming weekend?
