Brighter colour for gloomy rainy days

Oh boy oh boy oh boy, the rainy season is arriving!  We've been getting more showers and grey skies, but most importantly, cooler temperatures are extremely welcome after roasting in the heat for months.  I love a tan, but sweating in a pretty dress is not fun.

The rainy season can be a tad dark and gloomy, so I decided to go a little brighter with my casual outfit.  Pairing a striped knit crop top with my chilli red stretch shorts and flip flops brings a welcome pop of colour to cooler days.

I went crazy bonkers mad bananas over this asymetrical hem skirt and ordered it in fuschia.  The light neoprene was so comfortable and didn't cut into my waist after a full lunch, so I pretty much went ahead and bought the same design in electric blue, white and yellow.

So online shopping is a godsend.  With plenty of free apps and websites available, I can view the cutest things on my mobile phone anytime, anywhere.  Which might not always be a good thing for shopaholics because we're tempted by everything. Like these cute and comfortable hot pink shorts with white piping, I clicked and bought them without thinking.  But just as all shopaholics do, I rationalised away the purchase.  A girl still wants to look cute at home after all.
