    I love the pretty lace shorts – something I think I’m finally brave enough to attempt this summer. And there can never be too many Essie colors at home.

    I love the leather skirt, maybe I’ll try one like that, but in Canada there’s no sun at the moment so my skin color is pretty much that of snow, so might not be really nice!
    I just bought a pair of trouser a bit like the ones you chose for your post, I can’t wait for spring to come and be able to wear them!
    I love your blog!

    Great compilation!
    However I did find a better argan oil moisturizer, it is called Mogador Argan Oil, it is great and I sincerely believe it is better than Josie Maran’s argan oil and only costs a fraction of the price. It is available at Amazon or on their site http://www.MogadorArganOil.com

    Ah! You forgot maxi skirts :P Those are in too… but I guess since you featured your red ACNE skirt, it counts. Such a huge fan of maxis atm.
