Dear summer,
For years you were my favourite season. A cheerful period of Christmases and New Years, fish and chips by the beach (or chish & fips), late-night sojourns in random places and time off from work/school/uni, time to simply enjoy - you were beautiful, and magical, as it were.
But then La Niña hit this year (well, last) and, well, it wrecked you. You were cold. Heartless. Downright bipolar, especially in your oscillation between days of 30-degree blazing blue skies and 18-degree London-style rains. I had waited for you all year, and this was how you rewarded me.
So I’ve had to move on. Autumn’s no you, of course, but then, autumn brings me apple and pumpkin pies, delicately scented with cinnamon and vanilla, and Easter, with all its religious and chocolate-y goodness.
I hope you get yourself some help and next year return with your usual searingly hot, sexy self. And even if you don’t - well, seasons change. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for you. But until then, I’m moving on. Bring on autumn!

Vintage with an attitude. Sun dresses and maxis in vintage prints and grandfather-style cardigans gave a soft, vintage vibe, but a washed denim shirt with the sleeves rolled up, a khaki suede belt looped around a vintage sun dress, chunky resin bangles and the use of brighter, more vibrant colours and patterns, such as the lime green, magenta and purple striped print used in a skirt and a jumpsuit, gave an edge. Cardigans with feathered shoulders and a textured leopard print sun hat suggested a collection of eclectic but beautiful objects. Backstage, Marnie Skillings said the collection was about “the things we covet and desire, the beautiful things we love.” In contrast to the breezy whites used in other summer collections, she said: “Summer is about colour. I think summer’s abut having fun and relaxing.” - Annette Lin
