You’re my excuse to Travel



(Dress: DIY dip-dye and shoulder embellishments, Belt: Peter Jensen, Pink Wedges: ASOS, Necklace: eBay.)
Winter beach walks are nice, cold but pleasant. I felt rather proud of myself that I braved taking off my jacket for these! Take that weather! People did stare though. Wedges are also not good in sand, there was so much slipping... people stared at me for the the shoes as well. Sorry for the lens flare overload! I was pretty excited about having something nice to photograph as apposed to skyscrapers.

The dress was from ASOS originally but I did my specialty of adding crap to crap because I like sewing. I can't sit and watch TV now without sewing, otherwise I get a bit fractious, I have just finished a skirt that I am excited to so you all. Anyway, I bought boring shoulder pads and embellished them, I am not sure I like them on this dress, but it is better than having them in my sowing box gathering dust, so they can grace this dress until I find the perfect one for them. I also very sutbly dip dyed this dress blue too, I like the effect as it looks kind of water colour, but I have been considering making it a bit darker. It's a shame that the colour didn't really come through in these photos.

So weird that the photos look so different depending on who takes them, my mum took these and there was a lot more of my face, but with the boyfriend behind the camera there are an awful lot more body shots, not sure how I feel about this yet? At least my mother likes my face, what's the phrase... A face only a mother could love. True!

With love from,

    1. Thanks honey! It's nice taking scenery pictures for a change. It was just luck though, I have zero skill.
