Pastel force


The Evening Standard has started using the phrase
“the NEW season” – NEW standing for Never Ending Winter – to describe March 2013 in London. Its cold. Its grey. 
Its getting on our collective wick. Gatwick and Heathrow are expecting their busiest Easter in memory, with platoons of fed-up Brits making a break for some sunshine – any sunshine – over the Easter holiday.


Those of us who can’t join the exodus have got to make the best of things here. There are signs of spring around, you just need to know where to look. Happily, the fashion cupboard around the corner from my desk is a good place to start. 



I had my own little pre-Easter treasure hunt this morning and pounced on these totally yummy pastel-toned heels (above). You can always count on Manolo Blahnik to put a spring in your step. These are lavender and pistachio suede, with a 4-inch (10.2cm) square spiky heel contrasted with a soft rounded toe. 



These caramel patent pumps (below) from Gina are absolutely mouth-watering. A classic shape, and another 4-inch heel, you just know these would look perfect with pretty much anything, pretty much anywhere. All we need now is for the temperature to rise enough to be able to wear them.
