This dress is really nice and light, but the skirt flares out a little which made me really conscious all day that it might look too short. The slight breeze didn't help calm my fears either! Maybe not the best to wear in the office, but perfect for the weekend. Not really a fan of the grey tights with this, but will be a great summer dress. :)


The sunnies were last worn here, shoes here, and bag here. This is the first time I've worn the dress as it is a new purchase.

Funny smiles in the photos today courtesy of a very busy car park - as you can see there were people behind me so I was hurrying to take pictures and leave before they asked what we were doing!

I said yesterday I really wanted to wear my new skirt but thought I'd better wait for warmer weather. I decided to wear it today anyway and just layer to keep warm. It's such a pretty skirt! Love the metallic lace, really nice. Only had one very informal meeting today, so was a good day to wear the skirt. I thought the blazer would make it formal enough for the office. It generated a lot of comments today as it reflects the light - a really pretty piece, so happy with it for only $5!


The blazer was last worn here, shoes here and bag here. This is the first time I've worn the skirt as it is a new purchase, and the first time the grey tee has been on the blog although I've had it a while.
