Same But Different

I recently had a wedding to attend. I decided I didn't want to buy anything new and instead wear something already in my wardrobe but  make it look different. No guests from the previous wedding were going to be there so it was safe to do! :-)

I wore my Mint Velvet jumpsuit which I had to put tucks into around the bodice as it was now too big for me - luckily the way it is designed meant I could get away with this.....

I last wore it to a Western Wedding  with cowboy boots, leather bolero & a cowboy hat!
This time round I added a cream jacket, blush coloured gladiator heels and a gorgeous white clutch bag in pebbled leather.

So, there it is - my refashioned wedding outfit!
I'm trying to be frugal with purchases, particularly for occasion wear which may only have one or two trips out. This jumpsuit has had lots of outings, not just for Weddings! :-)


Thanks for dropping by!
Back Soon!

Plumo Autumn

I'm a big Plumo lover & whilst I've been away their latest collection has dropped through my door.

I love the simple aesthetics, the photography backdrops, that the clothes have a raw edge to them, a little different. They also tend to be expensive. However, when I have bought (in the sale) I have always been impressed with the quality (and the compliments!)

So here, if money were no object (& if I had not spent Summer paring back all our my belongings including clothes) are my top picks;






Can just see me dashing through town wearing all the above!
What do you think?

Room With A View

The last night of our Coast to Coast was spent in the most gorgeous B&B. A beautiful Victorian farmhouse lovingly restored in breathtaking countryside. It was a perfect view and perfect for the last night of our holiday. A hot bath in a traditional freestanding roll top painted red, the most comfortable bed and a stack of current magazines - perfection! 

I really want to go back here - there is lots to do in the area of Yorkshire where Greenwick Farm is situated. The garden is an open garden, beautifully planted, unfortunately it was raining when we arrived so didn't get chance to wander properly.

Thanks for visiting! :-)
