So long, farewell

I have been doing this blog for over a year now
and it has been so much fun...


...but now that I am moving to the city,
it seems like the right time to say goodbye to Driveway Fashion
and hello to something new.

Looking back

I was looking at some old photos the other day 
and found a photoshoot that I did 
when I first started this blog.


I didn't like these pictures at the time, 
but now I really like the lighting and contrast.


It's nice to see how things change over the space of a year.


Outfit:
Grey jumper, cropped jeans, spotty wellies.

Autumn coats

I recently modelled some autumn coats for Her Citi.


This over-sized tweed coat has a great shape.


This coat below has a wonderful texture to it.


I really like the ruffled detail on this navy jacket below.


Outfits: 
coats and jackets from Her Citi.

Accessories:
Bag from Her Citi, my own floral scarf.

Relaxing on the beach

Old favourites are the best when lounging around at the beach.


So here it was my usual nautical stripes...


...teamed with this high-waisted spotty skirt 
that I found in a charity shop years ago.


Navy pumps, my favourite sunglasses 
and this mustard chain necklace keep the look relaxed.


Outfit:
Striped top, spotty skirt, navy pumps.

Accessories:
Chain necklace.


Museum visit

What should you wear when visiting a museum?


For me it was this floral top, 
dressed down with comfy jeggings and a slouchy cardie.


Biker boots, 
perfect for wandering around multiple galleries, 
finish the look.


Oufit:
Floral top, green cardie, jeggings, boots.

Accessories:
Branch necklace, wooden bracelets.



Travelling chic

Sometimes it is interesting to rediscover 
a place you haven't visited in a while.


So for a rambling woodland walk 
I threw together these tribal prints.


I have always liked this paisley skirt 
and yet never been quite sure what to wear it with.


It seems this bag and wooden jewellery 
were just meant to go with it.



The bright red cardie and shoes brings the ensemble together.


Outfit:
Vintage paisley skirt, blue top, red cardie, red shoes.

Accessories:
Reversible bag, wooden necklace, various wooden bracelets.

Country house living

It was a glorious day when I visited this grand house 
set in wonderful grounds.


This floaty chiffon dress 
seemed a suitable thing to wear.


I like the demure shape of the collar and sleeves, 
paired with the delicate pattern.


Wonderful dressed down with bright pumps and plaited hair.


Outfit:
Chiffon dress, red lace-up pumps.
