by the sea

Dress c/o Jolie Moi, Ombre Cardigan, £12 from Primark, Lilac tights, gift (but via Amazon), Toms, £40 from ASOS.

This dress with it’s little sail boat design seemed to be the perfect choice to wear for Saturday’s seaside adventure. I teamed it with this ombre cardigan that I grabbed in Primark a month or so ago and then forgot all about. I never think of Primark for knitwear, if this is anything to go by then I shall be heading back soon.

I’ve hunted high and low for lilac tights and it was my Mum who found, and subsequently purchased these for me. She found them on Amazon for a reasonable price (I can find the seller if you wish) and they are impressive quality! As for the Toms, well, I’ve gone from owning no pairs, to three in the space of five weeks…they are just TOOO comfortable. I do need to reign it in though. My shoe situation is beyond crisis point (where my once famed tights one is sadly dying).

These photos from Saturday sum up the day perfectly. Especally the last one. It STILL, almost three months on doesn’t feel real.

  1. The dress looks lovely on you, the colours compliment your skintone and hair beautifully.

    Hope the seaside was nice, I love being by the sea (think it’s because I live in the Midlands – no sea for hundreds of miles!).

    Hope it wasn’t too hard without your nan. (If I’ve remembered that incorrectly I do apologise!)
