Weekend Life.....Spring Inspiration (#1)

A little inspiration for the beginning of Spring, the most wonderful time of year to witness the emergence of colour in gardens and parks after the long winter. Cherry blossoms, wattle (mimosa), camellia, forsythia, hellebores, winter jasmine, trees revealing their new season foliage....so much beauty to take in.

I was commenting to one of the chaps at the Covent Garden Flower market that the flower business is rather like fashion: it moves so fast (too fast) and flowers which typically emerge in the garden in late spring have been in the markets for a couple of months (and some before Christmas).

London Fashion Week SS 2016....Orla Kiely SS 2016 Presentation

A few images from the very pretty and very fun Orla Kiely SS 2016 collection, London, September 2015. 

My lovely friend Verity Pemberton and her sister Amelia invited me to the Orla Kiely presentation in September last year. I didn't intend on taking any photographs (popped my camera in my bag "just in case"!) but it was so lovely I couldn't resist taking a few frames. Today feels very spring-like - just right for some pastel colours - so I thought it would be nice to share these photos from the presentation.
