As promised (or threatened) the blue theme continues!
I bought these snazzy dungarees yesterday at a charity shop. They're made by Universal Dneim, I've had a pair of their shorts secondhand before now and was puzzled by the company I'd never heard of. It now turns out that, although not common, there are some pieces hiding out there. Sadly my Googling skills have proved fruitless as the phrase itself registers as rather general jeans wear. I do like pale denim though, it's much more summery than it's navy companion and it's a little more edgeh. Dungarees remind me of children's clothing, but I had a full length pair in my early teens. And I can assure you they were a mistake at that age and height. These are over-size on me in terms of width; they look bigger laid out but actually on, they're just a bit roomy. They have full functionality with three silver buttons on each side, straps that need to be wrestled to re-adjust and seven pockets, including a long one for my pens and crochet hooks.
I put on my silk shirt and added my drop earrings for extra fanciness. The wellies meanwhile were an unfortunate weather requirement due to today's torrential rain. And it wasn't until I went out that I realised I looked like a fancy farmer.
