Say hello to the gorgeous new lookbook from Kissin Cussin titled 'She Danced the Dance'. You all know that I have a slight obsession with maxi skirts, so teaming them with white basics, flowing hair and lighting that is just so 'summer' you can almost feel the sun warming your skin is the perfect combination for me. Kissin Cussin has perfected the art of floral's and white and I am just quietly obsessed with the Hinterland Dress Pants and the tie up playsuit, perfect for long days spent lounging in the sun. Less is more sometimes and so we also see some cheeky little crop tops as well, I think this summer they're the perfect staple pieces for showing a bit of flesh but keeping perfectly classy and elegant at the same time. And those soft, floaty white pieces are just perfect for picnics in the sun and cloud watching in some far off meadow. Forget colour, white is my new favourite for this summer.

You can check out the rest of the SS 2011 collection at Kissin Cussin or you can nab some of the pieces for yourself at A Little Left of Centre

Mink Pink skirt. Kissin Cussin cape from A Little Left of Centre

I don't have a horse anymore, nor do I live near any vast deserts, so imagine my disappointment when I received this gorgeous cape from the ladies at A Little Left Of Centre and realised that taking photos of it billowing in the wind astride a horse in a desert simply wasn't going to feasible...Sometimes I wish I could magically transform my day dreams into a reality.

This cape from Kissin Cussin is so ridiculously soft and silky on your skin it's what I imagine wearing a cloud would be like...seriously, I kid you not. Not to mention the print is comprised entirely of multi-coloured butterfly wings, so with the two combined I started to have day dreams of hundreds of butterflies caressing my arms. Not to sound like a complete weirdo but it smells really, really good too. Maybe it's the paint that has been used for the pattern, but whatever it is, it's good. Now all I have to do is make sure I don't start unconsciously sniffing my own arms in public.

Oh and PS, in a couple of days you'll have the chance to win this lovely cape for yourself. Watch this space ;)
