What I Wore.. Florals and Stripes


Top: c/o Mix Apparel  Skirt: Thrifted
Jacket: Thrifted  Tights: Target
Belt: Sportsgirl  Boots: Rivers
Umbrella: Vintage/Thrifted

I thought it only fair in honour of this lovely holiday to celebrate the Queen's birthday that I add a touch of red, blue and white to my outfit today and it quickly turned into this little eclectic mix of florals, stripes, denim and my super comfy new boots.  It's been such a beautiful winter's day here and I've certainly been making the most of the extra day off to work on a few projects and photoshoot and of course report writing. We took a little time out this afternoon to go for a wander through the beautiful Botanic gardens which are always such a treat this time of year, which also gave me an excuse to grab my matching vintage umbrella and dance around Mary Poppins style amongst the old fur trees. And inspired by such gorgeous jumping girls, Erin and Kaylah and my pretty umbrella, I tried my very first jumping shot.. so much fun!  

I hope you're enjoying a wonderful Monday too!
Much Love

  7. What a sweet outfit! I went a bit mad for the whole red, white and blue theme for the Queen's Jubilee (check it out on my blog - fiandme.co.uk/blog). It is just such a classic combination.
