See how much better my tripod and I are getting along recently? These were quickly snapped in the garden as I have some weird neighbours who like to look into my cardigan and I didn't want any awkward spectators to ruin my photos. I'm quite happy with the outcome though. I wore this outfit a few days ago for a day of lazing around and then the pub in the evening to say goodbye to a friend who was going travelling to East Asia.
It actually was a massively warm day and I was melting in this so the tights stayed on for about ten minutes while I realised sitting inside doesn't give you an accurate portrayal of the weather outside. For the night I actually wear it tightless with my wedges but I didn't snap any photographs so you'll have to use your imaginations on that front. I felt very Americana in this outfit though, I've not thought to pair this dress with red before but it just fit together for me on that day.
I was at first skeptical about buying this dress but I love the chambray and the bow and it has an exposed zip at the back which I adore. It's a bit busty but I let that go for it's other positive attributes. I was needing a red cardigan in my life and then when I picked this one up it took me ages to actually wear it. It has short sleeves and when it got a bit cold later on, that was frustrating.
I am also in love with this bag. Another purchase from a while ago but I waited until the Primark curse had died down of everybody else having it before cracking it out. I want a bigger vintage version but I cannot find one anywhere for the life of me. I'm thinking about going charity shop hunting this afternoon in London before a family meal but I don't want to go alone and everyone seems busy. Big sad face to that!
I got my necklace from the wonderful etsy store louloudo. The owner also has a blog that I can't find at the moment but its in my follow list. I was on the hunt for a cameo necklace and then this one popped out at me on etsy and it was love at first click. I used to want an owl with antlers tattoo but then this big hype burst up about stags and owls so I'm waiting for that to die down first. My boyfriend teases me for liking nature so much, but I love this necklace. I changed the chain to a silver one but it still looks amazing on. I love shopping on etsy but normally shipping prices are my downfall. This wasn't the case here though because it's UK based. What are your feelings on etsy?

I feel the same way about etsy, I always find really nice things from international sellers and the shipping costs more than the actualy jewellery does!
I love absolutely everything about this outfit. The color combo, the cut of the dress, the chambray gloriousness, the necklace, and the heat inappropriate tights. Fantastic.
