WAHEY! Not only is it Friday, but it's BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND! Excuse the excitement, but I think we're all in need of a good cheering up given this grey and miserable weather, right?
Anyway, I want you all to use this weekend as an excuse to go and treat yourselves to something pretty. You know, just because you can - oh, and because you deserve it too. Go forth and splurge! Hopefully this high street hitlist should help guide you...

P.S There are quite a few bargains to be had this weekend - 25% off anything at Warehouse with the code "SUNSHINE" (ha, there's some wishful thinking!) and 20% off for students at Topshop until the end of today.
Zara
As ever, I want to buy up pretty much the entire Zara store. I wish they would stop making nice clothes - it's seriously bad for my bank account! If you missed out on the panther studded shirt a month or so ago, they have a gorgeous owl printed version in store now. There's also a great range of summer dresses in store, especially if you're daring enough to p-p-pick up a peplum...
Topshop
Topshop have some great accessories in-store this week - bits and bobs which are sure to give any outfit an interesting twist. I've long had an obsession with shirt collar tips, so I'm loving these ones below!
ASOS
I am head over heels in love with this neon, lace-printed t-shirt dress. I can imagine that it looks just as great when rocked with heels and a leather jacket as it does with sandals or bare feet. The perfect summer staple!
Oasis
New in this week is the gorgeous
Oasis Scarf print collection. Teresa and I both instantly fell in love with the shirt - it's a fab print, perfect for jazzing up your old skinnies. I want!
Cos
To me, Cos do the best basics on the high street. I love this leather bucket bag...you can just tell that it's going to be buttery soft and look even better once it's been battered and bruised.
River Island
I am a teensy bit obsessed with
slipper shoes, which is perhaps why I have fallen for these...
Mango
Oops. And here are some more...sorry!
Warehouse
Warehouse is one of the best places on the high street for summer dresses. I love the simplicity of this white dress. But, if you find it a little bit dull and 'safe' with its tan belt, why not jazz it up with the neon number below?
H+M
This tropical print skirt is a complete and utter bargain at only £7.99! It's perfect for summer holidays - all you need is to tuck a vest top in, pull on a pair of sandals and go!
Urban Outfitters
I love this stripe jumper, even though it reminds me of something I would wear when I was a kid...not sure if that's a good or bad thing? Probably bad.
Reiss
As you know, I am obsessed with blazers, and this one has shot right to the top of my "lust-have" list. The print is making me swoon!
