bag: vintage

so yesterday was pretty darn cold. 

the only way I avoided frostbite feet was to sit in a bath hotter than the sun and pray for forgiveness.. I guess it's time to admit defeat and join the 100 denier club.

in other news the annual obsession with acquiring the perfect winter coat continues; this beauty is from one of my faves front row shop and is oversized cocoon heaven to wear. I opted for the pastel blue 'cause I'm a sucker for colour and it'll double up as a handy homing beacon for people to locate me in crowds.

it's one of those coats with quirky angles so its hard to capture it's fit in pictures, I daren't break out the tyra banks poses out for fear of frightening my new neighbours but you can see it modelled better for yourself here. 

....and did I mention, it also comes in PINK!

yep that pretty much sums up my feeling towards my new dress. it's quite unlike anything else I own and is my favourite a/w piece so far. it also has the addition of pockets (always dear to my heart) and I love how understated it feels.

the dress is from front row shop who have quite the selection of quirky clothing, I'm already building up quite a hefty wishlist! I'm really loving unusual cuts and details and their clothing has a wonderful scandinavian feel to it, big fan. 

I've been rummaging through my accessories and one thing I will be investing in this month is a few more vintage style rings, I really don't have enough choice in my current stash so if you have any jewellery shop recommendations please let me know! today I'm sporting some of my all time favourites to tide me over including my laura gravestock ring which never fails to perk up my paws.

today I'm in reykjavik with the boy; we've escaped to celebrate his 30th birthday yipeeee!! if you want to keep up to date you can pop over to my instagram for out latest adventures here

hope you're all having a good week.. look forward to catching up when I get home!
