Day Seventy Nine


Claire is wearing a pair of hexagon dark green sunglasses [from Mum], long red dress with pink carnations [Laura Ashley, from Mum], black and green thin belt [charity shop] and black canvas trainers [Lee Cooper, from Sports Direct].
Covadonga is wearing a blue and aqua zig-zaged playsuit [H&M].

Sun is well and truly out today, limited clouds too! Some fine Bank Holiday Monday weather for once!
I opted for a dress today, a summery dress to suit the occasion with bare legs aplomb, but it'll be ok as they'll be sheltered from UV rays and breeze by the long skirt of the dress. The straps are extra thick and extend down my back into a V shape where they meet in a small bow. The only issue is that it's slightly too big for me so while the belt is holding in it at the waist, I have to be on guard to make sure the top doesn't get accidently pulled down, or I Iean forward too eagerly. It's not actually mine it's one of my Mum's vintage Laura Ashley gems she's kept, which I have now clutched in my paws never to return. I nabbed the sunglasses some years ago, which though don't entirely flatter my face, are too insect-like for me not to try and get away with them!
I feel a bit Lilly Allen with my trainers and full skirt (minus gold), but the colours are so lovely it's worth it!
Practicality wise, there's a pocket and it's all cotton, which means it's all good for sweat glands, which may get a workout given the pleasant temperature. I am all set, once I've put my jacket on (don't want to tempt fate and be blown away/rained on/sunburnt to a crisp by unpredictable British weather) to amble around and read books on park benches, etc.
Stylish nearly-summer's day to all!
