raindrops on roses...

Hooray for this gorgeously cold, rainy day!
Ok I know I am more than a little strange, but I absolutely adore the cooler weather - I love that the first day of March 2010 was also the first day of autumn, weather-wise.



I lovelovelove thick, opaque tights, and today I could wear them in absolute comfort.



My new Review dress - its cream and silk and has ruffles down the front. I am in love!



Is it wrong to go out and buy yet another pretty umbrella in anticipation of the impending rainy weather? Hope not, 'cause I did last week!



Sadly my heels are all but invisible in the long grass...



You can't see it in any of these photos, but I was channelling the ever-impeccable FauxFuchsia and rocking a side-bun today.






Ruffles!

  5. I saw this dress at Review too! Not sure if it was the same dress or just a similar one! They have it in black as well...and I remember thinking how pretty it was!

    I love thick opaques as well but most of the times, I can't find opaques thick enough so I wear 2 layers...haha!

    I hope you are loving your new job and everything is great!

  9. Thanks lovely ladies!

    Aelie, I only bought this umbrella last week and then yesterday I dropped it and it landed on the floor and got a mark on the handle. I am ashamed to admit I cried. V thinks he can laquer it at work and make it good as new.

    PB, the Review dress is indeed still in stock! Oh and I often use ann umbrella on a really sunny day to shade myself, I definitely get funny looks for that one :D

    Bowsnhearts, they do have the same dress in Review in black, it was a hard decision between them but I am glad I went with the cream.

    Sushi, I have messaged you through Vogue hun, I am so sorry for the delay!
