mojita crush knee high boots c/o clarks
jeans & hat: topshop
sweater: oxfam
shirt: the whitepepper
holy macaroni I'd forgotten how nice it is to wear knee high boots!
I've been stuck in a ankle boot rut for the last year but these numbers from clarks are perfect daytime footwear and have reminded me that a good pair of knee highs are a classic a/w essential! I've paired them with high waisted jeans, a vintage inspired sweatshirt and black satchel. yep, easy peasy dressing was required for today's christmas shopping marathon! the one thing about knee highs that I adore? why the city slicker meets country girl look of course... yeehaw!
the boots themselves are a swanky affair; italian leather and soft as butter my feet are a big fan (plus I'm no longer living in fear of puddles.. do your worst british weather)
have you invested in a pair this winter?
back soon..

hello comfy dress!
that's right it's another asos smock dress (send help)
I just can't get enough of these over sized swishy numbers. this one is a little more subdued than my usual colour scheme but the stripes won me over and I love any item of clothing that I can literally throw on!
I'm not sure what happened but I managed to colour coordinate an outfit head to toe for the first time ever.. hurrah! (ok I'll admit it was a pure accident but I'm glad I managed to get a picture of this special occasion)
the satchel is from primark, one day I will upgrade cambridge one (I've been saying this for at least a year) the pineapple hair was simply down to me being lazy 'cause it's the weekend!

hurrah the sun is out.. about time you little rascal!
I can't remember the last time I was so ridiculously excited to put on a dress.. sweet jesus the extended winter has ruined me.
I do have a real soft spot for my new peachy number! super loose, laid back and no worrying about sharing my rear with passers by (always a bonus) as it's fairly long and demure. I've always loved smock dresses so one look at the asos website and it was game over for my inner hippy and I.
it doesn't look as floaty in these pictures but trust me it's quite swingy (is that even a word?) and over sized at the waist when you try it on! perfect if you've just ordered yourself a large pizza.. who me?
nepi smock dress: asos

quick outfit post today! this is actually one I wore while I was away, I thought I'd best share it before the summer when pictures of me sporting a woolly hat led you to question my sanity!
this is my usual wet day get up, enough layers to qualify as a walking onion & a hat to stop my hair from resembling an 80's perm. I think I look slightly like a hobo in this outfit, but dammit it was comfy.
the weather is due to be glorious tomorrow; I've been raiding the depths of my wardrobe to resurrect long neglected summer dresses... hip hip hurray! I'm even splashing out on some fake tan this evening (somebody stop me I'm going wild..)
hat: topman
navy boyfriend coat: primark
yellow check scarf: h&m
watch: american apparel
pink mohair jumper: h&m (ss12)
jeans: topshop baxter
racoon print shirt: asos
heart collar clips: c/o chelsea doll
leather satchel: topshop
boots: office
I'm best be off as I have my niece and nephew visiting. I've dug up 6 worms, constructed a nest for a ladybird and I'm now attempting to build a den in the back garden. I feel like a poor mans david attenborough... wish me luck!
