First of November outfit

Good morning! Hopefully this will be my final time attempting to blog from this computer as my laptop is ready to be collected later today; of course I then face the task of re-installing everything but I might enlist some help!

Yesterday I wore this maxi dress from Next (kids range would you believe). Clearly the combination of something bright and floral with wedge heeled boots was too much for my dozy little town as I earnt myself some very funny looks.

I’m wearing Models Own Grace Green on my nails, love the colour…hate the strong smell, which is a shame because it is otherwise a dream.





I hope everyone had a wonderful halloween. We had no trick or treaters round so I have a stash of fun sized chocolate to work through!

Is anyone else watching Masterchef? It’s the grand final tonight and it looks set to be spectacular!

    Yay! I did my nails the same but with Barry M pistachio coloured varnish and crackle effect. I’ve taken it off my fingers now but it is still on my toes. Love it x

  2. Love your look! I hate the way people always stare if you are wearing something unlike them. I am watching Masterchef, although I have last night’s episode to catch up on as well! I love it πŸ™‚

  3. I love the crackle and I love the boots! We had only one little group of trick-or-treaters so I’ve got a big bowl of candy to work through over here too. πŸ™‚

  4. I love Next kids for clothes. No one ever believes me until I show them the label.

    That dress is awesome.

    Also cannot wait to see who wins mastered. Yesterday’s installment left me craving chocolate so much!

    We ha trick or treaters in huge numbers…30 at a time! I don’t believe they were all from my road!

  5. SUch a lovely dress, and those nails work well dont they – may have to get myself some of the Barry M crackle stuff!! πŸ™‚

    never would have guessed that dress would be from next kids!

  7. That nailpolish never fails to surprise me, I love it!

  8. The crackling polish looks amazing, I love that black one on a bright ground.
    The dresses flower pattern in combination with the boots and the nails looks great, it’s a beautiful contrast indeed.

    Ever here in southern Germany, we had approx. 10 trick or treaters, little witches and magicians, cute!

    I wish you a wonderful Tuesday.

  10. You look gorgeous Laura! I bet they were looks of admiration. The dress is such a different cut to the usual maxis you see around – I really like it.

    Next kids clothing are all good. How could you manage to find a kids dress (maxi) at your height of 178cm?
    I thought Next kids height only run to 168cm.

  26. I haven’t stopped by your blog in a while (not sure why!) and am so happy to see you looking so wonderfully healthy and beautiful as always.
    Love the fun nails…perfect for this time of year.
