Slow down and make time for a few of life's simple pleasures...

Celebrate the good times this summer: the look for this season is energetic, colourful and full of the wonders of the Great Outdoors. Make the most of the summer sun, throw a few things into a basket and head out into the garden or to the beach for a lunchtime picnic.

This is the time of year when flowers really look their best: the warming sunlight makes them glow like jewels, so don't forget to choose a posy of bright blooms to adorn your picnic blanket.
