I had two sleeveless dresses planned to make this summer and the minute I started the first one the weather changed. I've finished one, which I haven't actually worn yet as it's too cold, and am halfway through the second. I've come to the conclusion now that they'll be great for when it warms up next year.

I bet you're looking forward to Spain. Not making too many plans in advance is the best way to enjoy your holiday.
