Sometimes you just happen to be in the right place at the same time. Sometimes you happen to be in the right mood at the same time.

The light was little short of phenomenal last Sunday evening and I just-so-happened to see this beautiful backdrop which was lit up a treat. I am veering towards autumnal prints and materials at the moment; this dress is a recent £1 charity shop buy, which caught my eye with it's almost dull but floral print. The floaty sleeves are a real departure from my usual style but the nature of the dress caught my eye, so who was I to fight my instincts? Anyway, I love this dreamy print so it's staying in my wardrobe regardless.


The rings are my favourites both charity shop finds, the teardrops of fire pendant necklace and cobalt glass bracelet both c/o Pia. Aren't they gorgeous? The simplicity of the necklace works with the open neckline of this dress and the pendant colour is an absolute beauty. Bangles are the usual array.


A huge thank you to Chris for taking these pictures and indeed all the other out-n-about outfit pictures except for the two I shot myself, with a tripod, awkwardly. He is doing a great job and I never heap enough credit on him when it's clearly due.
