Must-buy item: Cute Warehouse cover up

This burst of unseasonal sun has made me think of summer holidays. The older I get, the less clothes I like to take so it's becoming more important to buy dual-purpose holiday clobber.

This gorgeous silk cover-up from Warehouse fits that bill perfectly. You could throw it over your bikini with a little denim skirt to take you from beach to bar. Or it would be equally at home over a cute little dress, with a tan belt thrown over it for that casual Ibiza bar-hopping look. Once home from your summery destination, it'll look great over a vest with jeans and flip flops.

So even though it may seem expensive at £45.00, it's really a bargain considering the amount of wears you'll get.

Must-buy item: The best summer dress ever?

OK, this denim dress from Warehouse may not look much but I think it's a real winner for spring/summer.

It's flattery for most figure types, is dead on trend with it's cute 50s style and most importantly, extremely versatile. Dress it up with bright wedges; sling on your flip flops or white pumps for some holiday sightseeing; put a long sleeved stripey t-shirt underneath for colder days.

It's pure fashion genius.

Oh and by the way, my shopping ban officially ends tomorrow - watch out the West End, I'll be hitting those shops with a vengeance on Saturday!
