The 'Yo!' Files: Yo, it's a garden party!


I'm loving this cropped tee from the Stolen Girlfriends Club S/S 11-12 collection.  How cute is the floral print?  The beautiful lush greens and the lovely flowers - don't you just wish it were spring right now?  Sigh.  
 
It's always nice to bring nature into the office, but it only downfall is that it reminds you of what you're missing out on. Oh, how I long for the return of summer picnics in Hyde Park.  Otherwise, this itsy bitsy number would be perfect casual Friday attire or what I like to call "Midriff Friday" attire.

If only we could turn back time

I'm obsessed with the sixties, I wish I lived them.  The London scene, in particular.  I love the fashion and probably would have been a Mod if I had lived during the time. Right now, I wish I could crop my hair like Twiggy and Grace Coddington back in the day and wear super short minis like Jean Shrimpton. Unfortunately, I don't have the cheek bones or the legs to do so.

Sigh, now if only we could turn back time.  Hey, but we kind of can through fashion trends.  Last year, we saw a '90s revival. Fashion was all about the Doc Martens, the crop tops, plaid shirts - My So-Called Life style.  This year, it's all about the '60s.  The shift dress is back, strong defined lashes and brows, pixie cuts and Mod style prints.

Want proof?
