Covadonga is wearing a orange and magenta flowered silk scarf [charity shop].
I'm in it for the frill today.
I've got more ruffles than a fancy chocolate box. Or should that be truffles? The shirt is new and after seeing in a charity shop several times, I took the plunge and bought it. I'm still not sure what attracted me to it, like a bee to a fragrant bloom. It could be its shimmery, vivid peach colour, the ruffle bib front with the concealed buttons, or the lace on the frills which reminds me of modern laser cut lace as the pattern of the holes is so precise. It's a show stopped, a little bit of hideous, 80s and Spanish matador all thrown in I feel. I've worn it tied and avoided eye-shadow to stop myself from become too 80s.
I've finally had time to paint my nails! I went fro a periwinkle blue, one of my favourite nail shades. It contrasts with my shirt nicely, as does my deliberately chosen lippy for extra bold-ness. Also, cowgirl hair in long bunches because I love the 70s and letting my hair swing free may involve trapping it in the till later when I volunteer...
