Surprise Store

In the past, I have always been the first to dismiss Matalan, but this summer season, i've been really surprised to find that it has produced some amazing garments for their S/S13 collection. Here are some of my favourites that I'm looking to invest in:

a) Pink Gingham Trousers (£12) - Daisy Duke meets city chic... these pants are totally cute, bringing a retro feel to this summer's season. They are also flattering for both slim and wider hips, which is a difficult balance to master.

b) City Shorts (£6) - I have been after a pair of city shorts for a while now, and as these have a classic print while being a true bargain... what's not to like?

c) Shift Dress (£16) - This dress has a slightly more classic, almost Grecian, feel to it, something you can easily see being paired with statement gladiators. This is not a look I would typically lean towards, so i'm excited to try it out!
