Vivienne Westwood spring 2013| Nanette Lepore spring 2013 | Catwalk images via Style.com
Spring is here at last and limbs have come out of their winter hibernation.
My legs would like to see the sun and a pair or two of Bermuda short is just what they have in mind.
This season, designers kept things interesting when it came to Bermuda shorts. There is a pair for every girl; striped, printed, slightly oversize, tailored and more.
My legs could do with being in a fun pair right now. I’d oh so rather be wearing Bermuda shorts!

Leather gets ladylike for fall 2013-2014 and I want to be wearing it!
Two great examples of this were seen on the Roksanda Illincic and Jonathan Saunders catwalks respectively. Both managed to successfully take the subversive nature of leather to new sophisticated heights with feminine structure. It is particularly effective in nude tones.
I’d rather be wearing ladylike leather today. You?

Louis Vuitton fall 2013 | Marc Jacobs fall 2013 | Catwalk image used in collage via Style.com
Nothing quite as languid as boudoir dressing.
Negligee dresses, silk pajama type two pieces, sumptuous texture and dressing coats all thrown on with insouciance.
Today I’d rather be wearing boudoir dressing.
Marc Jacobs did it oh so well for fall 2013 at both his eponymous line and Louis Vuitton.

PPQ spring 2013 | Isabel Marant spring 2013 | Catwalk image used in collage via Style.com
Paisley for me gets better with time. Designers have devised clever interpretations of the print, so canny that sometimes you can barely make out that it is the good ol’ friendly paisley.
With the weekend up ahead a girl could do with a paisley separate.
I’m talking the 60′s platform wearing-tote carrying-slicked high ponytail sporting Barbie type paisley at PPQ spring summer (because I want to be a pool girl too). It came with lots of roses and enough going on to keep things interesting for days.
Alternatively, Isabel Martant’s unflappable French chic would make those pants a great starting point for a layered outfit.

Duro Olowu spring 2013 | Catwalk image used in collage via Style.com
Because Duro makes the most special dresses (the type that you will treasure and want to pass on as a style heirloom!) and frankly the end of the week deserves something special!

Oscar De La Renta spring 2013 | Valentino Couture autumn winter 2012-2013 | Catwalk images via VOGUE UK
When you are bored of dresses there is nothing quite like a fancy pant two piece that can hold its own.
Utterly perfect for the holidays.

So many fun 60′s inspired black & white looks on offer for spring 2013.
Be it Oscar’s chevron stripes, Marc’s hypnotizing check or Michael’s stripes, it is graphic and fun and I want to wear it now!

Spring 2013 is the season of the Far Eastern Doll and dare I say I want to be her!
With all the origami like folds, decadent oriental embroidery, martial art garment inspiration and kimono like cuts and footwear inspired by the stacked wooden slipper (most ingenious award in this category goes to Miuccia for her plastic sock meets slipper creation), she is having all the fun.

Nicolas Ghesquière x Balenciaga from different seasons | Catwalk images via Style.com
The news that Nicolas (whose work at Balenciaga since 1997 has just been brilliant. Brilliant I tell you!) Ghesquière’ is moving on from Balenciaga hit me like a ton of conceptual-fashion-forward design.
In homage to his legacy at Balenciaga, today I’d rather be wearing his work from across the seasons.
