A nonet of outfits!

*Apologies if I have not commented on your blog in the last couple of days- not sure what was going on with the comments but I kept getting error messages about not being able to save my comments and this happened on multiple blogs!*

Spring and Summer are my favourite seasons for clothing.  There's something about the light fabrics, the colours, the patterns that lightens my heart! I photographed 9 of the outfits I wore in May so far to share with you.  

Wore this to go to the recording day for when I went to my old Sixth form to record. I got completely soaked in it as the rain plummeted down all day. I also wore the same outfit last week for school and orchestra.  The star of the outfit is the lovely lightweight skirt I bought from 'By the Sea vintage' in Southend. I picked out the turquoise with this turquoise top and purple Karen Millen cardie (bought bought second hand) Added a charity-shopped skirt in honour of Ann and my Florence-bought blue boots.  


The butterfly earrings came from Joy and I saw a girl with them at Stansted airport around 15 years ago and asked where she got them from. I spent more on the postage than the earrings!
This screen-printed dress with clouds and raindrops came from Amy Laws but bought second hand from Vinted. Wore with the Lotus blue pumps
This raindrop necklace and matching earrings were a gift from the lovely @LaserKate on insta as they were TARDIS blue!

I transferred the jewellery set to the next day's outfit and wore more clouds-Cath Kidston skirt bought for me by my Mum plus a charity-shopped H&M top.
I have this Monsoon dress for about 5 years and I cannot believe two things...
1. I have never shared it on the blog
2.  I didn't know it was a dipped hem skirt until this Saturday just gone!!!!

It has a nice back and I actually often wear it backwards with the blue tie tucked in. Worn with Esoteric London star tassel necklace.


For my orchestra concert on Saturday, I wore this lightweight black dress from Superdry (Vinted).  Added my favourite ever Secret Santa gift- a black velvet and diamante necklace. I still wonder, to this day, who bought this for me!  Can you see my cat flats? No? Maybe later?

Can you see the cat flats THIS time?  

Worn with this lovely vintage floral skirt (purchased from Think Twice in Bruges) and a lovely white top which I bought a few weeks ago in the Salvation Army.  The Tassel star made a return. 

The Year 6 girls loved this outfit!

The tassel necklace made a return here with an East silk blouse, a Primark butterfly sequinned top and my Miss Patina cat culottes. Can you see the cat flats?

Oh, ok, here they are!  Do you remember when customised a pair of Asda ballet pumps with sewn cat faces?
Bonus arm photo! I think my hair needs a cut

The last one features the charity-shopped Topshop stripy trousers I shared in my last outfit post. It's pretty similar to last time except my black Topshop top has no sleeves!

Out of my nonet, which is your favourite?

  1. I love them all*, and agree with the Yr 6 girls about the white top&blue skirt. *but I was looking at pj's yesterday, and those stripy trousers are very similar to the cotton m&s pj's!

  2. I'm glad it's not just me seeing my comments vanish! I think Sheila might think I've fallen out with her, every time I try to comment on her blog, it vanishes into midair.
