in the half light

H&M Bunny dress, New Look skirt, Tesco tights, Georgia Rose boots c/o Sarenza.

8am starts make it even less likely that I’ll catch decent enough light for semi-ok outfit photos…seriously Spring, hurry up and get here so I’m not prancing around in the half light, and looking over my shoulder as I walk to work. I think this is what I wore on Monday; it’s been a long week!

Yesterday I did my first proper session taking people’s blood at work, I admit, it’s a strange thing to love doing…but love it I do and it’s something I’ve wanted to do ever since I started my job.

What’s something you’d love to do? Strange or not? What’s stopping you from giving it a go?

Almost at the weekend folks. ALMOST!

  2. great print on the dress. so excited for lighter mornings & shedding some layers.
    That is an odd job (most I am responsible during the day is being on time), I suppose it is the dream if you can love what you do. xxx

  3. love those boots on you. I got a similar pair but they were far too loose and I walked out of them. Fail.

  4. First time I’ve noticed your tattoo, love! Those boots are gorgeous too!

  5. I’ve never noticed your little tattoo before it’s very sweet.

  6. Love your outfit-quirky, girly yet sophisticated and cool πŸ™‚

    Wow, you can take blood? I’ve been watching Junior Doctors on BBC3 and they struggle to do that after, what, 6 years of training? Well done!

    xx

  7. Hey, you have a tattoo?! Nice:)

    Anyway, great outfit! I love those h&M bunnies, bought the blouse with the collar myself;)

  8. love the colour of that skirt! You’ve made me feel all queasy, but I guess someone’s got to like taking blood! x

  9. Loving the colour of your skirt!

  10. i hate those few seconds before the needle goes in when i’m having a blood test or donating blood ;/ once it’s in i don’t mind it.
    i love this outfit πŸ™‚ xx

  11. The skirt looks lovely on you! Pretty sure my legs are too short to pull it off πŸ™ Really lovely outfit, adore the quirky boots! πŸ˜€ x

  12. This outfit is gorgeous – love the skirt and boots combo!

    xx

  13. Love that cut and style of skirt on you! x

  14. If you love taking blood, you’re probably good at it. I get the feeling that the last person who took mine hated here job- 6 attempts and no blood later I was not feeling so good…

    Love that bunny dress, becoming a bit too tempted by all these animal prints at the moment…

  15. I didn’t know you had a tattoo! It looks nice πŸ™‚

    Love the outfit!

    Love, Elizabeth xx

  16. I love how you’ve styled the bunny dress. IT’s fab that you love what you do, I feel the same about my job and I have to pinch myself every now and then that I actually get paid for what I’m doing! xx

  17. I would be one of those nightmare patients you get once a day that takes forever to draw blood. I’ve frustrated many a Dr and nurse in the attempt! So much they have to do the blood taking from my hand it’s that bad! My veins are too scared to show!

    Loving that skirt though, lush plum colour.

  18. Ooo I love this outfit x

  19. Love the bunny print dress teamed with the skirt! πŸ™‚ I’m another one of those people they always seem to struggle to get blood out of! … and yay for it being nearly the weekend! πŸ™‚

  20. Love this outfit, especially those fantastic boots! =) xx

  21. How do you even manage to take photos that early? It’s the last thing on my mind in the AM (possibly because I hit snooze just a little too often πŸ˜‰ ).

    Oh, I really like the boots!

  22. Well done, I could never do blood samples, I hate having them taken so much! I think it’s great that you love your job πŸ™‚ I do too (most days!) and it does make getting out of bed a lot easier!

    Love the bunny dress, I think it looks great with that skirt.

    xx

  23. Those boots are LUSH! I can’t for the sunshine either!

    Lovely look. Love the skirt! Gutted you had to drop out from applying, it would be a lovely place to live! I’m looking forward to Spring, too! X

  25. Mat

    very elegant for the office dude

  26. Ah a really stern woman does the bloods at my doctors, she literally rams it into your arm….shudder.

    On a brighter note I like your skirt a lot, almost as much as I love your early morning posts : )
