London Calling

A new outfit for my phone :)

Why buy pretty clothes 

for myself only?

P.S.: Dearest London, I'll see you in a few weeks!

From The Archives

I haven't posted an outfit in a while, and then I found this one on my camera. It's from Palm Sunday - seems like ages ago! 

My children & I have just come back from a trip to Rome, so watch this space!

Outfit details:

- boots - Bata

- tights - home closet :)

- skirt - Igla (local brand, fabulous, I tell you!)

- rollneck - Peter James

- jacket - Boden

- hat - Benetton (ancient, slightly altered by me)

- brooch - Ella's Angel :)

Have a lovely long weekend!

Keep Calm ...

... and love UK!

My boy designed this for me :) Does he know me or what?

Nothing to do with anything, really, but I completely adore this Joules ad :)

An Outfit, At Last!

Well, it's been a while, hasn'it? It's not that I don't get out of my pyjamas every morning, it's just that it doesn't really occur to me to take a photo every day - I think of that in the evening when I browse other people's blogs - and by that time I'm quite possibly already wearing my pyjamas ... :)

Anyway, I spotted (rather appropriate, don't you think?) this gorgeous dress on e-bay the other day - it's Boden but I don't remember it from the last few seasons so it must be from a few years ago. I loved the colour and it really was a bargain!

It cost less than my Joules bangles ...

Outfit details:

- sandals - local shoe shop

- dress - Boden (via e-bay)

- cardigan - Monsoon

- clutch - local boutique

- bangles - Joules

- ring - gifted

- angel pendant!

- earrings - Etsy

- sunglasses - Boden

Oh, I wore this to church yesterday. 

And for my Mum's birthday get-together 
in the evening!

Three Things

Making me happy these days: 

:: a pretty purse with beach hut applique ::

:: sunshine for my feet ::

:: my boy's music band ::

Vango!

A great read, absolutely unputdownable! Brought into our home for my boy - who's not very keen on it, I'm sorry to say. I love it, though!

Eagerly looking forward to part two - yet to be translated ...

And my girl is looking forward to her beach entertainment :) We're all proper book worms, can't help it ...

Up!

Ever watched the film "Up"? You may have never heard of it if you don't have children of a certain age (like teenagers at this point) ... Anyway, we did watch it many times, my boy is absolutely nuts about any animated film, to be honest, and "Up" has always been one of my favourites as well. 

It's basically a wonderful love story, presenting all the right values to its viewers. And the image of a house being lifted up in the air by a bunch of colourful balloons, well, let's just say that's exactly my cup of tea.

Imagine my delight then when I spotted this absolutely incredibly breath-takingly gorgeous piece of jewellery on Etsy! I know, I know, it's meant for little girls, but hey, who says I'm not one at heart? :)
