Dungarees / Paisley Print Shirt with White Collar / Pointed Shoes

Hello all!

I must admit, I found the whole pinafore/dungaree thing that has been making the rounds on blogs quite relentless and so, I vowed to myself that I would not hitch my cart to that bandwagon, yet here I am, quite late - sheepishly chasing after said wagon. I don't mind telling you what changed my mind; it was after seeing Millie Mackintosh (I don't actually watch Made in Chelsea but I'm an admirer of her style) wear these exact Warehouse dungarees. She made them look so 'chic' but cute and I was fully swayed! Although I feel I look significantly more like an 8 year old than she did with these chubby cheeks I've been cursed with. Let me know what you think about dungarees/pinafores!

Off-The-Shoulder Paisley Print Dress / Miu Miu Sunglasses

Hello all!

I'm sure you'll have noticed that this sweet little piece by Motel is quite the lookalike for a rather more pricey Topshop dress I wore a few weeks ago (you can see me wearing it here). Who's version came first? - perhaps we shall never know. All I can say is, being the happy owner of them both, I can honestly tell you that they are both as beautiful and enjoyable to wear in their own ways. For me, this Motel dress is incredibly wearable and day-appropriate, and at less than half the price of Topshop's version it's quite hard to resist! As well as being exquisitely patterned, it's also very easy to move about in (which is a lot to say for an off the shoulder number, as they can be quite restrictive and cause me to lose the use of my arms in the style of a Tyrannosaurus rex... so elegant.) So, to summarise, I love it.
