Blousy days
Tuesday, April 16, 2019
If we go out anywhere in the evening, say for dinner, then I don't get a chance to have outfit pictures taken so you virtually never see anything I wear that's not a rambling or town look. A few weeks ago I pulled on this blouse and skirt combination to go go the pub and really loved it. I thought it made me look taller.
I wore it again at the weekend as I enjoyed it so much and managed a few snaps in front of some early oil seed rape in flower. Oh, not so tall, in fact more boxy than tall so I guess my bedroom mirror has a few questions to answer.
Plus I seem to be squinting in virtually all the pictures though I have no recollection of doing so at all. I thought I was smiling?
The blouse is very me with beautiful print and I hope to wear it plenty, although hopefully in a more flattering way. A nice blouse can make a good summer cover up but also you can hide a thick thermal vest and long sleeved top beneath to add winter warmth. I wore my almost black faux leather jacket over the top which felt quite smart.
Of course it was a charity shop purchase, most things for me are, but the label says Next which is not somewhere I usually care to browse.
Clip-clopping round the pavements in my solid heeled ankle boots.
Can it just get a little warmer soon so I can ditch the tights and enjoy the sun on me bones for a bit...
Take care,
Sophie

I like the combination especially as I would never think to pair those two items together!! Very pretty and an excellent back drop!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're getting the same weather than I'm enjoying this weekend? The sun is shining, the wind is still and it feels glorious! Thank you, more please.
