Soiree, guys...

Hiiiiiii!!! I'm back! If you haven't noticed (or you have) I've been away for a while (again). Sorry about the gaps but now I am back to blogging as much as I can. I am so happy with the extra sun time we're having in Worcester and thought I might as well use the garden while it lasts. Hehe!

I attended a little soiree for a friend of a friend of a friend a few days ago and I had a great time (only spilled a drink on myself one and a half times). I wore this cute tunic top/shirt dress I got from F&F a while back. Imagine the surprised faces when I told my friends where it was from (hehe). Its good quality and the length is probably what I liked most about it, mostly because it covers my hips, along with the print. Underneath I'm wearing a control dress (yup lingerie as a dress) which had the added benefits of smoothing and coverage.

My sandals killed me though. Although they are not very high it still hurt like all hell to wear them for long periods and silly me forgot to bring flats. But they were so cute!!

80s Brunchin'

I bought this dress a while back hoping I'd have somewhere to wear it. That opportunity came in the form of a late brunch date with an old friend. I wanted to wear something slightly 80s inspired so I scoured my local charity shops for a nice pair of vintage earrings and came upon a whole stack of clip ons. I don't know how many of you have ever worn clip ons but I can remember my first pair. They were not the most comfortable but 11 year old me thought they were so cute! This dress is from Boohoo and its made from a scuba material and thus its amazing form fitting powers. The shirt I had thrifted a few years ago. I got my shoes from my mother ( got is a strong word, more like took). They are from M&S and are in a size 8.
