    Capris

    I am on the hunt for some cheapish (but not-horrible-shiny-material) capris for the summer. I have seen white, black and denim in Oasis as £35 a pop but they aren't quite high enough on the rise, and a pale blue denim high waisted pair in French Connection were a whopping £75. Before I bite...
