Fashion Thursday - French Connections New Collection

I like what I see over at French Connection at the moment. Their new collection for Spring '13 had me at hello. 

I'm adoring the spotty blouse with peter pan collar, this is a piece that could be worn dressed up or down or to the office.

On the other hand the 'Spring Blooms' dress is just so pretty it screams English Rose. I'm thinking this is the perfect outfit for Wimbledon - or anywhere else where afternoon tea is mandatory! Bring on Spring Time!

DIY Wednesday - Five Faves of February

Here's a little look at my five favourite DIYs of February (don't say that too quickly!). With half term looming I am aiming to do a few of these with the boys to pass the time away. I always look out for DIYs that are realistically doable for me i.e. quick and simple! Are there any here you fancy recreating?
