If one more person tells me Christmas is 10 weeks away I might throw a glazed ham at them.
But tell me SUMMER is a mere seven weeks off and I'm the human equivalent of the dancing girl emoji.
It's officially my favourite season, specifically because of the outfits and the glorious feeling that comes with them. Holiday clothes mean big relaxed energy. The warm sun on your skin (lathered up in SPF, of course), and balmy nights that seem to last forever...
After two years of more or less staying inside, except to depart our homes in activewear, there's a definite vibe around shopping again - can you feel it? We've been starved of opportunities to dress up and reasons to update our wardrobes, so the trends coming through are a little bolder than we've seen in previous years. Things might get a bit wild out there (orange zebra print, anyone?), so don't say I didn't warn you...
From white denim to bold accessories, here's what I'll be adding to my closet.
