It might still be snowing, but in between the downpours and freezing temperatures there’s a little feeling of spring in the air.

I can hear birds singing, London Fashion Week is about to demand I start looking at clothing for next winter, and I therefore feel a little bit ready to start thinking about Spring Summer 2010.

There’s some gorgeous girly shades around this season, plus, of course with *shh* Valentines Day approaching that lovely romantic mood comes into season early.

I’m quite keen to crowbar a few candy colours into my wardrobe, maybe just little touches. A pale peach pair of tights, maybe, or a spearmint green cardigan.

I’m thinking colours in their most non colour form. Pinks, blues and greens so pale they’re almost neutrals in their own right. Not a headache inducing indigestion remedy pink.

These are my favourite high street picks. I’m particularly taken with the new look shoes, feminine and  smart enough for an evening out, but with a nice practical shape and at a price where I won’t mind too much if I step in a big puddle.

So I’ll sit, and I’ll plan, and I’ll scour the charity shops for candy colours, while I wait for the weather to catch up with my fashion urges.
