Spring is finally here in "The Land of the Long White Cloud, (NZ) for my International viewers. Our clocks have moved forward, its 6.15pm and the sun is still shining through my living room windows. I finally feel like my tired, winter batteries are beginning to recharge. Isn't it amazing how longer, lighter days, immediately have a revitalising effect upon us.
I've been browsing both the Internet and high street fashion this week and "brights", as my son in the fashion industry calls them, are certainly the go. Blue, green, yellow even purple is screaming out from the shelves with pastels quietly retreating in the background.

If you have actually got to this point of my post, and not already lost in Net-a-porters store, I guess there is nothing more to do but click "here" to shop...but before you do I have four rules:1. Lock your credit card away2. If you don't lock it away, please don't mention my name or blog address in front of your husband or partner.3. Let me know what wonderful item you buy and send a photo to me as your unwrapping it from its "impeccable" packaging ! 4. I will not be held responsible for any addiction to Net-a-porter that might occur from this post :)
Happy shopping
