Welcome Spring, we've been expecting you!

Hi Ladies
Flip Flop season officially started 1 March but today was my first trip out with my toes on show ☀️ The skies looked very grey so it was only a little trip to the butcher in the village.  Looking down at my feet got me thinking about the new season colours for nail varnish. I'm a 24/7/365 painted toe nails kinda girl so no start of season panic for me but I didn't love my last choice of paint! I'm leaning towards candy colours this early in the season. It's like having daffodils in the house, encourage a little 'pretty' into your life. 
I'm absolutely not strict about matchy matchy (toes & fingers) but coming out of winter & getting into flip flops does make me consider the combination a little more carefully. My favourite brands are NYC & Collection 2000, perfectly on trend colours which are friendly to your wallet.  Go on.... Go candy!  ðŸ˜€
I just had a message from my very fabulous mate Steph asking me what I'm giving up for Lent. Not being a religious girl, I've never joined in before but this year I think I will. It won't hurt me to give up chocolate & sweets for 40 days & may even help me feel a little more fabulous in my summer clothes at the end of it. So after my pancakes tonight (shop bought, I don't have the inclination to get mad at the frying pan) I'll be dropping the sugary treats (only for the 40 days, don't worry) & stepping out in my fabulous purple walking shoes a little more. Gently does it! 
Enjoy your pancakes ladies & get those toes out!
Victoria
