The longest of days in summer spell the start of soaring temperatures, sweltering nights and maddening delirium before sleep. Miles of walking into the sunset of a clear evening prove irresistible; sparkling sands, rippling heat waves and gently lapping tides, carefully creeping forth enough to kiss the shore before quietly retreating away.
Too warm for anything but a light dress I wore this pretty number I bought from Aluna J last year with brown ankle boots, a floral crown from Asos as well as my gorgeous green necklace from Caliz and an assortment of arm candy.
Have you taken a sunset walk along the sand?
Sophie

I want the world in my hands

I stand... with toes in the sand

It's too cold for you here and now

So let me hold both of your hands in the holes of my sweater

Sometimes the silence guides our minds

So move to a place so far away

There is something about wearing your favourites that makes you feel like you're both as comfortable as can be while simultaneously being as cool as can be (if only in my head). It was Maria who reminded me to dig out this relatively new favourite jumper a while back. I don't own much in the way of pastels but this mint jumper is my one prized pastel piece which seems to go well with everything. This knitted Aztec skirt is something that I will always reach for when in a quandary about what to wear; it's both short but safe. Even with tights it doesn't ride up which is a blessing for a miniskirt indeed! Thermal tights as standard along with my brown riding boots.
