Hello Sailor!

After popping into Topshop on Oxford Street yesterday (only to shelter from the snow, of course), it struck me how many amazing pieces they have at the moment - I mean, more than usual. I can't actually remember the last time I went in an literally wanted everything. I think one of the looks I'm really loving at the moment is the nautical theme and I tried on these super flattering navy blue wide leg trousers high waisted trousers with gold buttons (£40) that I subsequently didn't buy and now I'm experiencing that impending feeling of regret knowing that they won't have my size when I return.

The range of cute cropped jumpers and tees work really well with high waisted trousers - I'm shorter in the body and have longer legs so have always find high waisted trousers difficult to deal with as it seems that they somehow come up to my neck - not a good look. However, styled with the right top I found that they do in fact work so I definitely think I'm going to have to face a painful pre Christmas weekend return.....

Another nautical delight is this super cute sailor girl dress from Miss Selfridge for £38.
