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.

Trends

Film cameras are very trendy at the moment.

And few things beat the simple pleasure 

of using a Polaroid camera.

Also on trend at the moment is drop hemlines.

I love the shape of this floaty dress, 

paired with bold red wedges and a cropped cardie.

Outfit:

Spotty blue dress, red carrie, red wedge heels.

Summer days

This dress is the perfect thing to wear 

on long sunny days.

The bias cut makes for a very flattering and easy to wear shape.

The bold floral print looks lovely 

against the long seeded grasses.

Braided hair and chunky jewellery 

was all that was needed to finish off the outfit.

Outfit:

Blue floral dress (courtesy of Her Citi).

Accessories:

Bold flower necklace, various bangles and bracelets.

New Camera

I recently got a wonderful new camera.

I was so excited to use it, 

that I had to go out and take some photos.

So here is the relaxed outfit I was wearing that day.

The clash of stripes and floral go together surprisingly well.

Outfit:

Striped top, floral jeans, bird print flats.

Accessories:

Bird scarf.
