I heart Hi-tops........



.....just a little selection of the Hi-tops I am admiring at the moment. I love the way they add a bit of attitude and casual-cool to any outfit. I have a bit of a collection of plimsoll trainers already and I think I could easily start collecting Hi-tops too!!

My first pair? ...... leopard print wedge style ones with fleece foldovers, that I bought a couple of months ago and which I strangely haven't featured yet on the blog. They are mad and I love them!!

Muscle Cars Vest Top (Matalan) / Pale Grey Denim Straight-cut Skirt (La Redoute) / Tan PF Flyers Plimsolls (Schuh) / Aquamarine Sunglasses (H&M) / Silver Twin Rings Pendant (H&M) / Purple Ollie & Nic Handbag (Oli @ Freemans).


Photos from the top of Montjuic, the big hill in the middle of Barcelona which overlooks the city and the docks. It is also the site of the Olympic stadium, a medieval castle, copious art musuems and a cable car....... much to keep us amused for a whole day out.

Love this vest top from Matalan ...... cute and retro, yet the sugary pink colour contrasts nicely with the macho car theme! Worn with my trusty plimsolls to add to the retro feel and to carry me through a day of climbing up and down a large hill!
