Sophia Kokosalaki / Linda Farrow

Taking a quick break from show reports to welcome April. It's springtime and one of the most distinctive accessories of the season is sunglasses. With sunshine making a come-back and temperatures rising, they are slowly becoming the centre of attention once again.

The realisation came yesterday when a friend came to see me featuring the candy-red pair above. It's the result of a collaboration between Linda Farrow and Sophia Kokosalaki, bought from asos.com and reduced to 60-something pounds from 200-something. By all means, a bargain.

This post brings no news other than that. April starts with thoughts over new sunglasses. Catwalk posting will continue though as fashion weeks take place only twice a year and I feel it's important to know what's out there, or here if you like.

Oh and don't forget, it is "April Fools' Day" today, have some extra fun.
