Spring flowers

It’s getting lighter in the evenings, and yesterday I got the new Cath Kidston catalogue in the post – so Spring is definitely on the way.

There are some lovely new things in there – my absolute favourite things are the brown cowboy-print wellies. They’re not outrageously expensive, but they cost more than I could ever justify spending on wellies (I think the last time I wore a pair must have been when I was in my early teens and used to go horseriding, so they are clearly not an essential item for my lifestyle). But look how nice they are! Cowboys!!

The washed roses print is lovely, and it comes in a beautiful dress. The main new selling point seems to be the bubble rose print, which I find amusing – it’s like they sat down and realised that their most popular prints are rose prints and spots, and so decided to combine the two. Anyway, their cunning plan worked, because I love it.

Finally, if you like things like this, you might be pleased to see these pictures on Print and Pattern which show homewares at Asda – they are amazing, especially when you consider that they will be selling at a low price. I hope to make a trip there soon to see the rest of the range.
