Sportsgirl‘s roadshow hit town last week with a preview of what we can expect from the high street this summer. After a few personal fashion disasters (rain causing havoc for the ‘do, losing my umbrella and dropping my purse in a mud puddle) it was refreshing to have some sunny inspiration for possible replacements. Joining Lady Melbourne & Kate Vandermeer of iSpyStyle for a bit of front-row trend-spotting session, we seemed unanimous in our love for the accessories. Particularly the shoes, which are firmly camped in clogsville or a deviation thereof. I also loved the horse-bit belts, a pair of sheer black lace dresses, fringed neckpieces, a delicious sequinned camisole, a lace jacket and now wish I had reason (or enough eternal youth) to wear a crown of flowers upon my head while going about my day.
