Lace Race

Now, some of you are gonna see this outfit and think "What the sweet baby Jesus is she doing wearing her granny's tablecloth?"; and some of youse are gonna think "What an unusual kinda cute lacey cardigan kimonoey thingy". Hopefully there'll be a few more of the latter than the former :) I dunno what it was about this cardi but I just had to get it. I'm not really into vintage stuff (unless it's like, some immaculate YSL dress from Decades in LA) but...this lil' tassled beaut deffo spoke to me. (It said "Hiiiiii, if you buy me you can pretend you're Stevie Nicks"...Me "Sold"). I thought it kinda demanded to be paired with a flower crown, so I went for this gorge orange one. Hope you're feelin' it :) Catch you soon x

Addiction

Is there such a place as Skort Rehab? Coz I think I need to check myself in, pronto! I dunno what it is about these beauts that's got everyone in lust, but I just can't keep away :) This grey pinstripe version is pure heaven. I've found myself wondering just how many skorts Zara have sold this year. (Yeah, it is a riveting life I lead, you're not wrong). 50,000? 100,000? Quarter of a million? Maybe more? Whatever the number, as long as it's good for the Spanish economy, and good for avaricious fashionistas, then everyone's a winner!
How lovely is this baby that wandered into my shot? He was such a sweetie I wanted to scoop him up and take him home! And yet again I couldn't decide which hat to go with so I did a few piccies with both. (Does anybody need to be seeing my big aul booty? Hell to the probably not, so soz for that- it's just- you never see the back of a skort do you? Judging by this shot it's probably clear why! Anyway, in the interest of full disclosure, I'll go with it). Have a lush weekend, skorting about the place :) Catch you soon xx

Seasons In The Sun

I can't hold back any longer- the time has come for me to dip my toe into A/W. So I've bought a jumper. And a coat. Even typing those words seems insania. But Zara keep making goggle eyes at me. A bit like the snake in 'The Jungle Book' :) This lil' check sweater is trans-seasonal though (excuses excuses)- in as much as it's 93% cotton *Label Face*- so it's gonna see me through September nicely. The coat though is a different story. I probably won't be able to wear it until October- seeing as how it's boucle and lined and 64% wool *There's That Label Face Again*. However, having seen a very similar (in shape, in collarlessness and in over-sizedness) Isabel Marant Yeti-type astrakhan super-furry-animal coat in Selfridges recently, I'm actually thinking I've been a smart bugger getting it. Ha! This is the coat, (and here's the Isabel M one). Also, here's the jumper (which I will deffo be layering as Zara have done). I've also been searching forever for some perforated black shorts and I finally found these beauts on Saturday. Buzz! 
I'm also sick of the sight of myself in my knackered auld fedora (as indeed you must be), so I pinched this baseball cap off my sis just to try and change things up a bit. It's convinced me that I deffo need a good trucker snapback in my life, as well as more generally a lovely black Saint Laurentish hat to see me through the winter. Hat fairy, hat fairy send me a hat! This one has already sold out- gah! But this babe has got a lil summin' summin' about it, hannit? Time for me to shurrup I think :) Much love, catch you soon xx

Match Point

How cute is this matchy-matchy two piece from Topshop? Its adorableness quotient is doubled, nay tripled by the fact that the shorts and top are actually covered in a lovely bunny rabbit print. I know! These pieces are also a beautiful silky fabric and you can't ever fault a Peter Pan collar, can you? :) The top also looks reallllly good untucked with grey skinnies (I know coz I tried!) Get yours here and here...hop to it :) Catch you soon xx

Quilty As Charged

I totally fell in love with this quilted mini the very second I saw it :) Texture seems to be big again for this A/W season and I'll deffo be hauling all sorts of quilted pieces I reckon- not least this sweatshirt in a bunch of different colours. It was a birrova squeeze getting into a Size 8 of this skirt, but I hate buying Size 10s so it was an 8 or nowt :) I couldn't get any decent shots of the lovely zip detailing (coz my delightful beach ball tummy kept ruining the line, darling) except the piccie below where I'm breathing in like a mad thing. If you're feeling a lil' bit quilty get yours here. Hope you have fab weekend, catch you soon xx 
PS I've got my mitts on a Harry GQ and a Harry nail polish so I'm buzzzzzin like a bee!
